Experience has shown that dangerous products can injure consumers, inadequate corporate and computer security can allow customer privacy to be breached, and even a savvy consumer can fall victim to fraud. When companies fail in their duty to protect their customers, someone must step in.
Weitz & Luxenberg, a nationally recognized law firm, does just that. As a legal powerhouse of 500 attorneys, paralegals, and support staff members, we get clients the fairest compensation possible and hold companies accountable for their misdeeds.
"We just wanted to extend our deepest thank you to all the people who are the working on our case, the diligence of everyone involved is appreciated. The last check was a blessing... Thank you all and God Bless."

A design defect is when there is something in the way a product was created — an inherent flaw — that makes the product unreasonably dangerous to the consumer.
A manufacturing defect is when a product departs from its intended design when it’s being made. Even a seemingly well-designed product can injure consumers if it’s improperly manufactured.
Marketing defects are flaws in the way a product is marketed, such as improper labeling, insufficient instructions, or inadequate safety warnings.
Each year, thousands of injuries in the U.S can be traced back to defective or dangerous products. Such products can lead to serious personal injury or wrongful death, causing significant pain and suffering. Types of product defects include:

They may even open accounts or lines of credit without your authorization. Filing a lawsuit can help you get your money back, fix your credit or both.
