New Orleans Products Liability Lawyers: Holding Manufacturers Accountable for Unsafe Products
When you purchase a product, you have a right to expect that it is safe for its intended use. However, in an effort to cut costs or speed up production, many manufacturers knowingly overlook design flaws, production defects, or inadequate warning labels, putting consumers at severe risk. If you or a loved one suffered injuries because of an unsafe or defective product, it’s crucial to contact an experienced New Orleans products liability attorney as soon as possible.

How Do Defective Products Reach Consumers?
Often, defective products make it to market because manufacturers prioritize profits over safety. In some cases, defects are missed during testing, but in others, manufacturers are fully aware of the dangers yet choose to produce or sell the product, calculating that it’s cheaper to pay potential personal injury lawsuits than to implement safer designs or issue costly recalls.
Jack Sileo and Casey Moll are renowned for exposing such negligence. Our legal team will thoroughly review all facts surrounding the product, examining:
- Consumer complaints and injury reports.
- Internal company documents, including design specifications and safety tests.
- Whether the manufacturer had patents or made design improvements to prevent future injuries but chose against manufacturing them due to cost.
- Compliance with industry standards and regulations.
If a defective product has caused you harm, you have a right to pursue fair and just compensation for your losses. Contact the Law Office of John D. Sileo for a free consultation with a knowledgeable New Orleans products liability lawyer.
