For many years, GKC&J's Products Liability Practice Section has focused on the defense of cases involving products that are alleged to have been defective. Specializing in the representation of designers and manufacturers of a wide array of products and their component parts has enabled the firm to understand the pride of craftsmanship that must invariably be factored into a determination of whether to resolve matters through Mediation or defend a product without compromise.
The managing partner of the Products Liability Practice Section, Jon Tisdale, believes that the key to defending any product is first learning the product from the drafting table to the end user: "Every product is so vastly different that it would be a fatal mistake to assume that all may be successfully defended in the same manner. I want to know every detail of a product I am about to defend, from the perspective of the design engineer, through the manufacturing and quality control process, all the way to the end user of the product. It's the only way to fully appreciate why a product has a particular feature and why it routinely meets consumer expectations." GKC&J has successfully defended many different products while at the same time recognizing the need to maintain competitive advantage by protecting the product manufacturer's proprietary interests and confidential information. Confidential settlements often preclude release of certain specific information, but we can disclose that we have represented designers and manufacturers of a wide variety of products including: glass-lined steel pressure vessels, soda bottles, injection molding machines, cosmetics, food products, solvents and petrochemical products, gas springs, and many others. Whether your product is new or old, whether your company is large or small, and whether your company is insured or self-insured, GKC&J can craft a unique approach to creatively resolve and/or aggressively litigate your products case.
