Aggressive Products Liability Attorneys
New products get manufactured and shipped to store shelves for our purchase and use every day. When one of these products causes us harm because of a defect, Nevada law allows us to make an injury claim against the company responsible for its manufacture. These suits usually require the assistance of a skilled Las Vegas product liability attorney with a proven track record in this complex area of law.
Vegas Valley Injury Law has represented hundreds of such cases for individuals harmed by defective merchandise and other negligently made products. We build a claim based on research, evidence, and diligent commitment to ensuring our clients get the justice and compensation they deserve.
Types of Product Liability Cases in Las Vegas
We regularly take cases where a client has suffered a severe injury because of a defective design or defect in a manufactured product they purchased. The range of products that we have brought product liability suits against fall under many of the below categories:
Consumer products
Medical products
Drugs
Defective motor vehicles
Defective Tires
Design and manufacturing defects
Improper directions for use
Lack of appropriate safety warnings
As seasoned product liability attorneys in Las Vegas, we take pride in serving individuals here at home that have suffered significant injuries because of a defect in a product they were using. We work tirelessly to research that product’s chain of custody to explore whether claims against the producer, distributor, and wholesaler might also be made.
In such cases, we generally pursue one of two product defect categories outlined below in accordance with state law:
Defective Manufacturing
When a product is undergoing assembly, manufacturing defects can occur during this process. Shoddy design or the addition of a foreign impediment may not always be enough to warrant a liability claim. In fact, you must demonstrate to the court that this error injured you and caused your damages. Retaining a skilled legal team like that found at Vegas Valley Injury Law is imperative to gather the required evidence to show that the product left the factory and entered into the stream of commerce with this defect.
Defective Design
Unlike manufacturing errors, design defects are a flaw in the schematic of the product that are generally unknown until someone gets injured.
If a client comes to us claiming a design defect caused the injury, we will try to determine the following before bringing a product liability case against the manufacturer:
- Was the original product design unnecessarily dangerous from its creation?
- Is it possible the design team knew of the potential for a user to be harmed?
- Was there a better design that was economically reasonable to pursue while maintaining the purpose of the product?
Answering yes to one of these scenarios may indicate a basis for filing a product liability suit on your behalf.

Vegas Valley Injury Law Can Handle Your Product Liability Case
In addition to determining the type of defect that harmed you, our product liability attorney Garrett Logan will choose the type of case that should be filed to ensure you get the maximum allowable compensation for your claim. His demonstrated knowledge regarding these types of matters would have him evaluate the reason for your suit under one of the following bases below:
Strict Liability
Nevada requires plaintiffs to prove a product injured them as a strict liability state and that the defect in its manufacture, design, or warning information was responsible. Generally speaking, only items purchased within a manufacturer’s distribution chain may qualify for these suits. If you have purchased a product from a major manufacturer on the second-hand market, substantiating such a claim may be more difficult.
Breached Warranty
Many products come with a warranty guaranteeing the quality and function of certain features. When retailers or manufacturers fail to honor these warranties, it is possible to sue for breach of warranty. Two primary types of warranties may cover the product that injured you:
Expressed
This warranty type is made by the manufacturer, which makes a direct promise regarding product safety.
Implied
Known as an assumed warranty, these warranties generally certify that the product is both merchantable and fit for its ordinary purpose of use.
Negligence
A product liability suit based in negligence requires proof that a consumer was owed a duty of care by the product’s manufacturer or someone who was part of that product’s supply chain. From that point, we look to the evidence to establish that the manufacturing party was negligent in designing or manufacturing the product, or that they negligently failed to warn the consumer of the potential dangers posed by its use. In these types of cases, our legal team can do this by proving the at-fault party was (or should have been) aware of the product’s defect.
