West Palm Beach Construction Equipment Defect Attorney

Who Is At Fault for My Injuries?

Construction sites can be busy, cluttered, and dangerous—especially when the equipment you are depending on fails to work as intended. When a construction equipment defect has led to your injury, it can be very concerning. Determining who is at fault is the next step in your case.

There are three main issues that may be to blame for defect equipment:

• Design defects: Prior to the product ever being created, the design may have been flawed and inherently dangerous / unsafe. A design defect may leave the creator responsible.
• Manufacturing defects: A problem during assembly or manufacturing can make a piece of equipment unsafe, from missing parts to poor materials. A manufacturer may be held liable.
• Marketing defects: Even if there were no “defects” in the product, if it had a lack of warning labels, safety guidelines, or improper instructions, it may be a marketing defect or a failure to warn.

If one of the three issues led to your injuries, you may have a valid product liability claim. Our firm can handle cases involving lack of warning, defective electrical wiring, improper safety guards, and nearly any other type of defect that led to a construction site accident.
