Fort Worth Defective
Product Lawyer
Standing up for people hurt by dangerous and defective products
When a product fails, the consequences can be life changing. Exploding batteries, faulty airbags, unsafe medical devices, and defective tools can cause fires, amputations, and severe head and spine injuries. We understand the medical and financial strain that follows. Our job is to listen, explain your options in plain language, and fight for the full recovery you need.
Why defective product cases are different
Product cases are complex. Responsibility can involve the entire supply chain, and the key evidence is often in the hands of the manufacturer. We move quickly to secure and protect the product, preserve testing data, and stop companies from destroying or “losing” proof.
Texas product liability law recognizes three main defect types:
- Design defect where the product is unreasonably dangerous as designed and a safer alternative design existed
- Manufacturing defect where something went wrong in production and the product that injured you was not built as intended
- Failure to warn or instruct where the company did not provide adequate warnings or instructions for safe use
Common defective products we see
- Vehicles and components: airbags, seat belts, fuel systems, roof crush, tires, child seats.
- Lithium ion batteries and electronics: e-bikes, scooters, vape devices, laptops, phones, power banks.
- Household products and appliances: pressure cookers, space heaters, ranges, furnaces, gas appliances.
- Medical devices and drugs: implanted devices, surgical mesh, pumps, and medication injuries.
- Tools, ladders, and industrial equipment: saws, guards, scaffolds, forklifts, presses, lockout failures.
- Children’s products: cribs, strollers, toys with choking hazards or toxic components.
- Food and consumer goodscontamination, mislabeling, and allergen exposure
If your injury involves a different product, call us. We will review how the law applies to your facts.
How we build your defective product case
- Preserve the product: We secure the product, packaging, instructions, and any broken parts and store them safely for inspection.
- Send preservation letters: We notify manufacturers, distributors, installers, and retailers to prevent spoliation of evidence.
- Engineering and testing: We work with mechanical, electrical, and materials engineers to identify the failure and safer alternatives.
- Data and documents: We collect design files, quality control records, prior incident reports, warranty and repair data, and compliance with safety standards.
- Recall and regulatory history: We review CPSC, NHTSA, FDA, and other agency actions, prior complaints, and service bulletins.
- Human factors and warnings: We analyze instructions, labels, and foreseeable uses and misuses.
- Damages proof Life care planners, vocational experts, and economists help document lifetime medical needs and financial losses

What to do after a product injury
- Get medical care now: and follow your treatment plan.
- Do not throw away or repair the product: and do not return it to the manufacturer.
- Save everything: including packaging, receipts, manuals, and parts.
- Photograph the scene: the product, your injuries, and any damage.
- Write down what happened: including how you used the product and who witnessed it.
- Do not give a recorded statement: or sign release forms for an insurer or manufacturer.
- Call us quickly: so we can preserve time-sensitive evidence and protect your claim.
