Specialized Attorneys - Rollover SUV Liability

Product liability lawsuits are generally regulated by state personal injury laws. The basis of liability - a form of negligence - is provided by state statutes. Most states provide varying degree of culpability for defects in design, manufacturing, and marketing claims. These theories of liability contain a common thread - consumers have a reasonable expectation of safety when purchasing goods and services.
