Defective Products

Arizona Defective Products Attorneys

The ladder collapsed under my weight. The brakes failed and caused the truck accident. The equipment guard failed. The morphine pump was defective. The design of the motorcycle kickstand caused the crash. Over the course of our twenty-three years of practice, the personal injury lawyers at our Phoenix, Arizona, firm, Alex & Gaxiola, have heard our clients describe tragic injuries caused by a wide variety of dangerous products. Manufacturers often fail to correct known product defects until threatened by product liability lawsuits.

Only after 160 young children suffered strangulation from mini-blinds with looped pull cords did the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) announce recalls to repair the dangerous horizontal window blinds.*

Nevertheless, children are still senselessly dying because of dangerous or defective mini-blinds. To date, there have been over 960 deaths attributed to looped pull cords in mini-blinds.
