PRODUCT LIABILITY

We have won many cases in the area of product liability, including Danne v. Otis Elevator[*70] (plaintiff claimed injury from a freight elevator incident) and Fendley v. Power Battery.[*71]

In the case of Altimma v. Humphrey Man Lift[*72] our motion for summary judgment was granted in favor of the lift manufacturer since there was no evidence of a defect in the lift which was manufactured over 20 years prior to the subject accident.

In Kleinman v. Park Structures[*73] we successfully defended the manufacturer of playground equipment which plaintiff claimed broke as the infant-plaintiff climbed on same.
