North Carolina Defective Products Class Action

A state economy centered on manufacturing

Many consumer product industries make their home in North Carolina. As a result, certain state laws seem to be tilted in favor of businesses rather than the consumer. The six-year statute of limitations on defective product litigation is the shortest in the nation.

Potentially hazardous household products

We can take pride in the overall quality of the goods that our state produces. However, high volume can lead to shortcuts in the safety of products such as the following:

  • Child restraints
    • Unsafe car seats
    • Unsecure doorway gates
  • Vehicles
    • Powerful air bags
    • Weak roofs
  • Swimming pools
    • Inadequate escape ladders
    • Dangerous drains
  • Food
    • Tainted
    • Improperly labeled
  • Medical devices
    • Poorly designed
    • Incorrectly assembled
  • Drugs
    • Mislabeled
    • Inadequately tested

 

Defective products can be made or sold in any state

You might be a North Carolina resident who gets hurt while on vacation in Florida by a defective product that was made in Arkansas. If the defective condition is widespread, the federal courts could approve class action claims in several other states. Marvin Schiller studies your case and determines how you can best be compensated in a class action for your injuries due to the following:

  • Defective workmanship
  • Poor labeling
  • Inadequate warnings
  • Insufficient instructions
  • Invalid guarantees
