Defective products can cause life‑changing injuries in a moment. The attorney you choose will shape the investigation, the experts retained, the preservation and testing of the product, and the outcome of negotiations or trial.

Our role is to connect you with a Product Liability Lawyer Chicago clients can trust, a professional with the resources and focus your case demands.

Car Accident Injury FAQs
-
Move to safety and call 911. Request a police report. Exchange information and take photos of vehicles, the scene, skid marks, and your injuries. Identify witnesses and nearby cameras. Get a medical evaluation the same day. Do not give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurer before you have counsel. Contact Strom Advisory Group to connect you with a Car Injury Lawyer who will protect evidence and guide you through the following steps.

A strong case shows that the product was defective and unreasonably dangerous, that the defect existed when it left the defendant’s control, and that it caused your injury. Evidence can include the product itself, exemplar testing, engineering analysis, quality and design documents, warnings and manuals, recall and complaint history, purchase and maintenance records, photos, video, and expert testimony. Preserve the product and packaging and avoid repairs or alterations until your legal team advises.

A product liability lawyer evaluates defects, preserves and tests products, works with engineers and human‑factors experts, identifies all responsible companies in the distribution chain, negotiates with insurers, and files suit when needed. Strom Advisory Group connects you with a Chicago Product Liability Lawyer or Product Liability Claims Lawyer who fits your case.

A product is defective when its design, manufacturing, or warnings make it unreasonably dangerous for expected or intended use. Examples include unstable furniture without anti‑tip devices, a device with a flawed component that fails in normal use, or packaging that omits critical safety instructions.

Responsibility can extend to the manufacturer, component supplier, assembler, distributor, and retailer. In some situations, a maintenance vendor or installer may share liability. Your attorney will analyze each link in the chain and the available insurance.
-
Deadlines depend on the type of claim, when the injury was discovered, and who is being sued. Some claims also have outer time limits. Speak with counsel promptly so no deadline is missed.

Medical bills and future care, rehabilitation and therapy, lost wages and diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering, loss of a normal life, scarring and disfigurement, property loss, and, in limited cases, punitive damages.
