During the past several years, the number of consumer goods being imported into the United States has exploded. This is particularly true of products from China. In 2006, for example, the value of Chinese products imported into the United States reached $246 billion, accounting for approximately 40 percent of all imported consumer goods. Alarmingly, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has reported that on average, two-thirds of all U.S. product recalls are of imported goods, with the large majority of the recalled items being manufactured in China. In addition to millions of toys – including more than 9 million manufactured by Mattel - containing dangerous lead paint or other hazards, recalled Chinese products have included potentially deadly toothpastes, faulty tires, tainted seafood, unsafe pet foods, dangerous electronics and even noxious drywall.

If you or a loved one has been injured by a dangerous product that was made in China, it is crucial to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. Our skilled trial lawyers can help you secure all of the compensation to which you may be entitled. This may include compensation for pain and suffering, financial loss, emotional distress and past, current and future medical expenses. In some cases, you may also be entitled to punitive damages for another party’s wrongdoing. Our dedicated attorneys can also help you deal with your insurance company, as well as the insurer of the other party or parties. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard to minimize their payouts; you need a lawyer who will work just as hard for you.
