Indianapolis product liability lawyer

An Indianapolis product liability lawyer from C. Dennis Wegner & Associates stays abreast of new developments regarding products sold to the public which have been found dangerous or hazardous to those who use them. A product is deemed dangerous once a consumer has incurred damages while using it for its intended, regulated purpose. If the product is altered in any way from its factory manufactured form, such as if safety features are removed or it is not used as directed, any resultant injuries are the fault of the consumer.

A product which contains a warning regarding a potentially unsafe way to use the product is not usually considered dangerous and its manufacturer cannot be held liable. However, in some cases, a defect is discovered after the creation of the product that can cause injury or death. An example would be a car whose wheel bolts fail upon reaching a certain speed. Injury as a result of careless assembly is grounds for an Indianapolis dangerous product lawyer to pursue compensation for an injured client.
