Product Liability

If you have been injured by a dangerous or defective product, a products liability case can be filed against a variety of parties involved in the manufacturing and sale of the product. Defendants in the case may include a manufacturer of component parts, an assembling manufacturer, the wholesaler, and the retail store owner. The law firm of Goldstein, Ballen, O'Rourke & Wildstein will also investigate the feasibility of pursuing products liability or other liability actions resulting from your work related accidents if you are injured while operating a machine or do to the negligence of others.

We have handled product liability cases involving a variety of products and our approach a product liability case from every angle. In proving a product is defective, we must show that some or all or the following defects existed:

• Design defects exist before the product is manufactured.
• Manufacturing defects happen while the product is being constructed or produced.
• Marketing defects arise from improper instructions and failures to warn consumers about a dangerous aspect of the product.

Proving that the product was defective is the most difficult and important aspect of a products' liability lawsuit and requires the services of a variety of experts and an attorney who knows how to effectively gather and organize the crucial information. At Goldstein, Ballen, O’Rourke & Wildstein, we have the resources and experience it takes to successfully pursue a products liability action.

Medical Malpractice 

Medical Malpractice is negligence committed by a professional health care provider - a doctor, nurse, dentist, technician, hospital, or hospital worker - whose performance of duties departs from a standard of practice of those with similar training and experience, resulting in harm to a patient or patients.

Doctors and other health-care providers must follow certain standards when caring for patients. While a simple mistake is not enough to constitute negligence, a death or injury caused by the failure to provide reasonably appropriate or common standards of care or the failure to diagnose an easily detectable illness may be malpractice.

We are experienced in medical malpractice law and can help clients determine whether or not malpractice has occurred where someone is injured as a result of negligence or misconduct of individuals in the dental, medical, podiatry, chiropractic, psychiatry, and other health professional fields.

We know your rights and we’ll fight for you. Contact Goldstein, Ballen, O’Rourke & Wildstein and let us do the rest of the work.
