Don’t for a minute think your injury isn’t worthy of a lawsuit. No matter how insignificant you think your disability from a product liability might be, talk to the attorneys at Klemick & Gampel before you decide.
If your injury has caused pain and suffering or time lost at work, you have a substantial claim. If you’ve lost sleep or cannot perform simple day-to-day tasks, you need to seek the counsel of K&G, experts at product liability accident law.
Successful personal injury litigation could enhance your future. Disregard your physical or mental health and you could jeopardize the rest of your life.

Call the trusted personal injury counsel at Klemick & Gampel, which has over 80 years combined experience. At Klemick & Gampel, “We work for You.”
Personal injury lawsuits from product liability are limitless. If you haven’t heard of a case involving your injury, don’t let that stop you. You have a right to seek financial compensation for your condition. Every day, there are new personal injury cases arising from product liabilities. And remember, new products hit the market daily. Just look at technology’s effect on inventions.
Product liability litigation in the United States has spiked. According to a September 2004 report in the East Bay (Calif.) Business Times, lawsuits against pharmaceutical giants such as Bayer and Bristol Myers-Squib are increasing over diet, anti-depressant and painkiller medications. Drug giant Merck was sued over its arthritis medication, Vioxx. Early tests showed the drug increased the rate of heart attacks and strokes. Merck later pulled the drug.
The same newspaper noted that Kevin Stehr, vice president for strategic market planning at legal research firm LexisNexis, said, “Product liability litigation has really taken off to the tune of a triple-digit increase.” Stehr said in 2004, 10 percent of civil lawsuits filed in federal courts nationally were product liability cases.
Steve Kohn, partner and head of the product liability litigation group at international law firm Reed Smith, added, “The same attorneys who were involved in tobacco and asbestos litigation are now turning their attention to the health care industry.”
Your life severely changes without eyesight. Did a coke bottle “explode” in your face as you pried the aluminum cap free? Did a high-power industrial spray leak into those ‘airtight’ safety goggles? Maybe a policeman doused your eyes with pepper spray for being in the vicinity of an altercation. You might have been at a ball game or in a subway car when someone opened an umbrella, which poked you in the eye. Descending a staircase, you might have hit your eye socket on a low-hanging ceiling. Operating an electric drill, the bit might have come loose at high speed and cut through your plastic face shield, damaging an eye. Lose your eyesight and you lose your job, your ability to drive, fly, walk across the street, protect yourself, read, go to the movies or watch a television program.
If a product liability has caused injury to your legs or feet, your ability to walk has just been compromised. With leg injury comes back injury. You can walk with a limp but a degenerative disc could be immobilizing. The longer you walk with a limp, the more damage you to the vertebrae in your spine. A strong spinal column depends on sound muscular development in the legs, buttocks, stomach and back. If something is out of whack causing imbalance, the ‘health’ chain is compromised.
Think of situations where the lower extremities have been injured. Maybe you fell on steps that were not built to the code of seven to nine inches on every step rise. Steel-toed work boots might actually have been made of a soft metal which didn’t cushion the force of a cinder block falling on your toes. Without just one functional toe, your balance is off, again impacting your spine. Maybe a knee pad didn’t cushion a shard of glass that cut a tendon in your patella. You might have tripped when a sandal heel broke off, causing you to trip on the sidewalk. An exercise treadmill becomes jammed at high speed, causing you to lose your footing and break an ankle.
A machine part malfunctions and severs one of your fingers. A pitching machine, operating at 100 miles per hour, spins off center and sucks your index finger inside its shaft, leaving you with only three fingers on your pitching hand. How would you ever pitch, much less play ball again? A gear chain spins off a saw at high speed and cuts through your wrist. Standing in a subway car, the leather strap you were grasping gives way, dislocating two fingers and a thumb.
A damaged finger prevents you from twisting open a jar of mustard, typing a letter, tying a shoelace or rotating your car’s steering wheel. Every handshake becomes an embarrassment. An untreated broken finger bone develops into arthritis. You may face surgery or surgeries in later years to repair a break that never heals correctly. Orthopedic injuries force you to retire or give up a recreational sport. Act now so you can pay for medical treatment. Don’t prolong your misery. Help yourself by calling Klemick & Gampel.
