Product safety is an issue of great concern to
consumers. Product safety litigation occurs where products, used in a normal manner,
cause injuries due to manufacturing defects or incomplete testing on the part of the
manufacturer in determining safety concerns. The overriding goal of Vernon J. Petri
and Associates is to provide its clients with representation of the highest quality in
defective product cases.
Whether the firm's task involves a complex lawsuit
or a claim for benefits, the best interest of the clients always comes first. We
will discuss the case with you and analyze the merits of your case in an honest and
forth-right manner and help you take the most appropriate action for all parties involved.
Consumer safety is an important issue. In America, a
consumer-driven society, it is especially important when considering manufacturers that
will cut corners when making a product to allow the profit margin to be broader. The
government agency that has the most responsibility for monitoring consumer goods is the Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC), however, there are many Federal agencies
which regulate specific
areas of consumer goods and consumables (such as food safety). Where their efforts are not sufficient
consumers have been injured. This is where litigation arises - when consumers are
injured by products, even where the injury results from normal and expected use of the
product.
Although a litigation firm, Vernon J. Petri and Associates
does not believe that every case should have to go to a trial. First and foremost, the
firm's attorneys are problem-solvers. Prompt, accurate assessment of legal questions and
claims is a hallmark of our practice. This provides clients with the foundation necessary to determine whether
claims should be settled, mediated, arbitrated or tried. When a trial is necessary, Vernon
J. Petri and Associates' approach to each case is aggressive and comprehensive. All cases
are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and expeditiously as possible and by the
most economic means available. Vernon J. Petri and Associates' attorneys are backed by an
extensive array of state-of-the-art resources, thereby permitting client matters to be
