Defectively Made Products

Defective Product Cases in New Jersey

There are two types of dangerous products. There are dangerous products like guns, explosives, or chemical products that everyone knows are dangerous and that carry clear warning labels or directions for their use, storage, and safety. And then there are dangerous products like car tires that fall apart, workplace equipment that malfunctions, or medicines that harm rather than heal.

Whether it's the result of a bad product design, a manufacturing flaw, or a marketing mistake—if you or a family member has been injured by a defective product, call or contact The Law Offices of John S. Hoyt in Morristown for a free consultation.

At The Law Offices of John S. Hoyt, our attorneys represent injured clients from throughout Northern New Jersey and handle dangerous products cases involving everything from deaths caused by airplane crashes to serious injuries caused by exploding chicken fryers. If an individual is using a product according to direction or in an otherwise reasonable way…manufacturers are responsible for injuries and deaths caused by defects in ANY type of product of ANY description, including:

  • Baby seats, cribs, toys, children's bicycles, etc.
  • Grinding machines, lathes, printing presses, and other industrial equipment
  • Automobiles, motorcycles, and other vehicles
  • Household appliances and electronics
  • Power tools
  • Chemicals
