When a child is injured or even killed because of faulty product, it is, understandably, an extremely emotional and difficult time. The law provides for legal recourse against the negligent manufacture or supplier of the defective product. While such recourse can ease the financial burden placed upon the family due to the accident, it cannot, however, ease the pain and anguish it caused.
Mr. DiMartini has witness this pain caused to families on too many occasions. As such, he is dedicated to help raise awareness about known dangerous and defective products, such as toys or bikes. That is why he promotes product safety notices issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and has established and contributes to the personal injury law blog. In this way, with the power of knowledge, we can all help prevent at least some accidents from happening and devastating the lives of yet more families.
Even with all of the work being done to prevent product-related injuries to children, it is a sad fact that such accidents still occur all too frequently. Whenever a child is injured while using a product or device, it is important to consult with a New York product liability lawyer as soon as possible to protect your interests.
