Louisiana Product Liability Lawyers

Our product liability lawyers represent both plaintiffs and defendants in claims of personal injury involving defective or dangerous products. We handle all types of product liability claims, including injuries resulting from:

• Auto components, such as air bags, seat belts, tires, and door latches
• Drugs and medical devices
• Products made for children, such as playpens, infant car seats, and toys
• Home appliances such as stoves, electrical devices, and heaters
• Garage items, such as lawn mowers and power tools
• Household chemicals such as hair dye and cleaning products
• Recreational equipment such as ATV's and exercise equipment

Louisiana has a very specific set of statutes called the Louisiana Products Liability Law (LPLA), which govern all product liability claims. To try a case successfully, you need an attorney who knows not only the ins and outs of Louisiana's product liability law, but also specific cases that have been decided since the statute was enacted. Without an experienced lawyer, it is difficult to get a product injury case past the summary judgment phase where so many product liability cases are dismissed.

Our lawyers have considerable experience on both sides of product liability claims, representing both injured people as well as insurance companies. Our lawyers have tried numerous product injury cases and have several reported cases that are often cited in Louisiana courtrooms. Two of our attorneys have engineering degrees, which helps us understand both the technical and legal issues involved in a product liability claim. We also have close relationships with the leading product liability expert witnesses.

From our offices in Baton Rouge, our product liability lawyers serve clients throughout Louisiana, including Lafayette, Lake Charles, Alexandria, New Orleans, Covington, Mandeville, Hammond, Metairie, and East Baton Rouge Parish.
