More and more, we are seeing a significant increase in property damage caused by water and fire as a direct result of a defective product.
Product liability subrogation
Our product liability lawyers have experience litigating cases involving hundreds of different products, including industrial machinery, automobiles, and common residential and commercial appliances such as dehumidifiers, sump pumps, space heaters, fire compression systems, and more. Recently, we have effectively litigated product liability matters involving residential and commercial appliances, gas explosions, cellulose insulation, and sprinkler, plumbing and other water losses.
Product liability litigation
Many firms litigate but few actually litigate a product liability matter to completion. This is why we are trying to work with you to bundle these files to increase the settlement value and decrease your operational costs associated with adjusting each claim. Therefore, we would like to remind you of the following Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recalls:
Per the CPSC, this recall involves Carrier and Bryant branded 1.5-ton multi-zone, 4-ton multi-zone and 4-ton single-zone ductless heat pump outdoor units. The units are used for cooling and heating homes and light commercial facilities. The model number and product number can be found on the nameplate/rating plate on the side of the units.
Per the CPSC, the recalled dishwashers come in stainless steel with customizable doors and handles, and each is about 24 inches wide, 22 inches deep and between 32 and 35 inches tall. ASKO is printed in the front and in the center on the top dish rack. Model and serial numbers may be located in the recall notice.
Per the CPSC, electrical receptacles can overheat when in use, posing a fire hazard. This recall involves Garvin Pop-Up Floor Box Kits with a finish of either stainless steel or brushed brass that includes two electrical receptacles and two USB ports. The pop-up electrical outlet boxes are designed to be installed into floors with a metal lid that opens and closes to reveal the electrical receptacles and USB ports.
