Products Liability

Kirby & Holt - North Carolina Products Liability Attorneys

The personal injury and wrongful death attorneys of Kirby & Holt won the largest products liability verdicts in North Carolina history when they recovered a substantial jury award on behalf of Valerie Lakey, a young girl who suffered horrific injuries from a hazardous swimming pool drain. Since then, we have continued to win compensation by settlement or trial for victims of dangerous, defective, or poorly designed products of many kinds. For additional information and a free consultation on your defective product claim, contact the North Carolina products liability lawyers at Kirby & Holt in Raleigh.

We handle products liability cases involving household goods, medical devices or prescription drugs, automotive components, and other products such as:

• Defective tires, including tread loss and blowouts
• Poorly designed child car safety seats, airbags, and other automotive safety components
• Children's toys
• Industrial equipment, machinery, and tools
• Recreational equipment, such as target arrows, sporting goods, outdoor heating devices, camp stoves, or propane grills

In establishing liability against the manufacturer or distributor of a dangerous or defective product, we carefully examine the circumstances of the accident to determine whether the fault involved the design, the manufacture, or the instructions connected with the product. In some cases, liability will turn on the adequacy of product warnings and instructions for safe use.
