If you've experienced a problem with a defective or dangerous product, you may have a product liability case on your hands. Some dangerous products have been part of large suits due to widespread problems, or have been subject to recall. Sometimes, it seems like there's a dangerous product lurking in the most innocent of places; contaminated food, flammable children's clothing, lead-painted toys, and more. If you have been injured by a dangerous product in the state of California, contact the experienced product liability attorneys at Demas & Rosenthal today.

If you've heard about cases of people finding disturbing things in cans of soda, that would be a manufacturing liability.
