Berks County Product Liability Attorney
Every consumer has the right to trust that the products they use — from household appliances to vehicles and medical devices — are safe. Unfortunately, when manufacturers cut corners or fail to test products properly, the results can be catastrophic. Defective products can cause serious injuries, long-term disabilities, and even wrongful death.
At Wilk Law Firm, our Berks County product liability lawyers fight for justice on behalf of those injured by unsafe products. We stand up to large corporations, holding them accountable for the harm their negligence causes.
What Is Product Liability?
Product liability refers to a manufacturer’s or seller’s legal responsibility for placing a defective or dangerous product into the hands of consumers. When a product fails to perform safely as intended, and someone is injured as a result, the injured person may have the right to pursue compensation.
Common examples of defective products include:
- Automobile parts, such as airbags, brakes, or tires
- Dangerous prescription drugs or medical devices
- Faulty electrical appliances or tools
- Contaminated food or unsafe packaging
- Children’s toys and baby products
- Defective machinery and industrial equipment
Our firm handles all types of product defect claims — no matter the complexity or size of the case.
Types of Product Defects
Product liability cases in Pennsylvania generally fall into three categories:
- Design Defects – A flaw in the product’s design makes it inherently unsafe, even if manufactured correctly.
- Manufacturing Defects – Mistakes during production make the product hazardous or unusable.
- Failure to Warn (Marketing Defects) – The manufacturer failed to include adequate safety instructions or warnings.
Our Berks County product liability attorneys investigate every aspect of your case to determine the root cause of the defect and identify all responsible parties.
Common Injuries from Defective Products
Defective and unsafe products can cause devastating injuries, such as:
- Severe burns or electrical injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord and back injuries
- Organ damage or internal bleeding
- Amputations or crush injuries
- Wrongful death
These injuries can lead to lifelong physical, emotional, and financial consequences — but you don’t have to face them alone.
Compensation for Product Liability Victims
If you were injured by a defective product, you may be entitled to recover damages for:
- Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
- Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death damages, if applicable
Our attorneys fight tirelessly to secure the compensation you deserve and to ensure negligent corporations are held accountable.
