Garner Product Liability Lawyer

Garner Personal Injury Lawyer  >  Garner Product Liability Lawyer

If you or a loved one has been injured by a dangerous or defective consumer product in Garner or anywhere in Wake County, you may be entitled to significant financial compensation. At Riddle & Riddle Injury Lawyers, we help people who have been harmed by unsafe products hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable.

Product manufacturers must prioritize safety — but far too often, they cut corners in design, testing, or labeling, sometimes leading to devastating injuries. If this happened to you, our experienced Garner product liability attorneys are here to help.

Call 1-800-525-7111 or contact us today for a free consultation with an experienced dangerous product lawyer in Garner. We have close ties to the area and are committed to justice for North Carolinians.

What is Product Liability?

What is Product Liability?

Product liability is a type of personal injury law that allows injured consumers to pursue compensation when a defective or unreasonably dangerous product causes harm. These cases often involve:

  • Design defects – where the product is inherently unsafe even when manufactured correctly
  • Manufacturing defects – errors or contamination that occur during production
  • Failure to warn – inadequate instructions or warnings about foreseeable risks

Under North Carolina law, companies involved in making or selling defective products can be held legally responsible for resulting injuries and damages.

However it is important to note that every case is different, and the outcome of any Garner dangerous product case will depend on the unique facts and circumstances of the specific case.

Consumer Product Cases We Are Investigating

Riddle & Riddle Injury Lawyers is actively investigating several major product liability cases involving everyday consumer products used in homes, workplaces, and communities throughout North Carolina. If you or someone you love has been harmed by one of these products, call us today.

Hair Relaxers

Chemical hair straightening products used primarily by Black women have been linked to serious health risks, including:

  • Uterine cancer
  • Endometrial cancer
  • Ovarian cancer

Major brands marketed to women of color may have failed to disclose the risks of long-term exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals. If you've been diagnosed with reproductive cancer after years of hair relaxer use, you may be eligible to file a hair relaxer lawsuit.

Roundup® Weed Killer

Roundup® is one of the most widely used herbicides in the country. However, thousands of Roundup lawsuits have alleged a link between long-term exposure and:

  • Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL)
  • Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)

Homeowners, groundskeepers, and agricultural workers may be particularly at risk. If you were exposed to Roundup and later diagnosed with cancer, our Garner product liability lawyers want to hear your story and we may be able to help.

Paraquat Herbicide

Paraquat is a highly toxic weed killer used in commercial agriculture. Research has shown a strong link between Paraquat exposure and the development of Parkinson’s disease, especially among:

  • Farmers
  • Farmworkers
  • Rural residents living near treated fields

If you or a family member has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s after working around Paraquat, contact us today to discuss your legal options and possible qualification for a Paraquat lawsuit.

PFAS (“Forever Chemicals”)

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are industrial chemicals used in products like:

  • Firefighting foam (AFFF)
  • Nonstick cookware
  • Food packaging
  • Water-repellent clothing

PFAS don’t break down in the environment, and they accumulate in the human body. Exposure to these chemicals has been linked to:

  • Cancer
  • Liver damage
  • Thyroid disorders
  • Developmental issues

We are actively investigating claims related to firefighting foam exposure and contaminated drinking water affecting communities across North Carolina.

Infant Formula and NEC

Premature infants fed cow’s milk-based formula or fortifiers may face a higher risk of developing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) — a serious intestinal condition that can be life-threatening. If your child was born prematurely and developed NEC after being fed cow’s milk-based baby formula in the NICU, you may have grounds for a claim against the formula manufacturers.

To speak with an experienced Garner product liability lawyer about any of these products, call 1-800-525-7111 for a free case review.

Who Can Be Held Liable?

Liability in a defective product case can extend to several parties along the supply chain, including:

  • Designers
  • Manufacturers
  • Suppliers
  • Distributors
  • Retailers

Even if the product was used exactly as intended, these companies may still be responsible if the product was unreasonably dangerous.

What Compensation Is Available?

In a successful product liability claim, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (current and future)
  • Lost wages and reduced earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Wrongful death (if a loved one passed away from a product-related injury)

If you qualify and decide to hire us, our team will work to recover the full value of your losses, including both economic and non-economic damages. Our Garner dangerous product attorneys always strive to secure maximum compensation for our valued clients.

Why Time Matters

In North Carolina, the statute of limitations for most product liability claims is three years from the date of injury. However, determining the exact timeline can be complex — particularly in cases involving long-term exposure or delayed diagnoses.

Waiting too long could jeopardize your right to compensation. Call us at 1-800-525-7111 today for a free case review where we can review the statute of limitations in your specific claim.
