Defective Consumer Products

Massachusetts Defective Products Litigation

Defective Products Litigation

Corporations, manufacturers, distributors, and other businesses, as well as engineers, architects, contractors, and designers, all have a legal responsibility to make their products safe for the people who may use or be exposed to the products. When they do not, the law allows people who have been injured and the families of those killed or injured as a result of these products to recover compensation for their losses.

Arthur F. Licata, P.C. represents clients in Massachusetts, New York, and throughout New England in defective products claims involving a broad range of consumer goods and workplace equipment. The firm's practice includes specific defective products such as children's toys, household chemicals, motor vehicles, industrial machinery, power tools, and defective medical devices, among others.

Tort reformists claim many consumer product liability lawsuits are baseless, frivolous, and all too costly to the American public. The fact is that every year products liability claims keep companies honest and keep everyone safer. Seatbelts and airbags are mandatory, in part, due to plaintiffs bringing lawsuits to recover for their injuries in car accidents.

While most sole practitioners and smaller law firms shy away from defective products cases due to the time and resources these cases demand, attorney Arthur F. Licata does not. Instead, Mr. Licata takes pride in personally managing every aspect of a case, from preliminary investigation to the conclusion of the settlement negotiations, trial, or appeal. His dedication is evident by the fact that he obtained substantial compensation in a products liability case that lasted over ten years.

The firm welcomes inquiries about its products liability practice and provides free consultations in personal injury concerns. All cases are handled on a contingent fee basis; you pay no attorneys' fees unless Mr. Licata is able to obtain compensation on your behalf. The firm also routinely takes case referrals from other attorneys in the Boston area and throughout the New England states of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, and New York, and from attorneys across the nation.
