Greenville Products Liability Attorney - Parham Smith & Archenhold, LLC
Protecting You Against Defective and Unsafe Products in South Carolina
At Parham Smith & Archenhold, LLC, we understand the harm that can come from using defective products. Our dedicated Greenville product liability attorneys have extensive experience in handling cases where products have caused injury or harm. We believe that manufacturers, distributors, and retailers should be held accountable when their products are not safe for consumers.
Experienced Representation for Product-Related Injuries
We have seen firsthand the damage that can result from defective products. Whether it’s a faulty appliance causing a fire, a defective vehicle part leading to an accident, or a harmful pharmaceutical product, we have the knowledge and skills to fight for your rights. Our team is equipped to handle a wide range of products liability cases, including but not limited to:
- Auto defects — defective seat belts, airbags, or tires; SUVs prone to rollover because of defective design.
- Medical products — electrical, electronic, or mechanical failure in cardiac rehabilitation chairs, implantable aids, and other health care devices.
- Pharmaceuticals that have dangerous side effects.
- Consumer products (power tools, ladders, appliances, toys) that lack safety guards, constitute a health hazard, or fail in a way that causes falls, lacerations, explosions, burns, poisoning, or other serious harm.
- Heavy equipment or industrial machinery — lack of safety mechanisms or failure of emergency controls.
Product liability claims typically fall under the category of strict liability. This approach is adopted because proving a manufacturer’s negligence in introducing a hazardous product can be both time-consuming and expensive. Generally, what must be proven is that a product had a design or manufacturing flaw or there was a lack of adequate warnings, and these issues were directly responsible for our client’s injury.
