Product Liability
Holding Manufacturers Accountable for Dangerous and Defective Products
Consumers trust that the products they use every day are designed, manufactured, and sold safely. When companies cut corners, overlook safety standards, or release defective products into the marketplace, the results can be devastating. At Frohlich, Gordon & Beason, P.A., we represent individuals and families throughout Southwest Florida who have been injured by unsafe consumer goods, medical devices, automotive parts, household items, industrial equipment, and more.
Product liability claims often involve serious injuries that require extensive medical care and long-term recovery. Defective products may fail without warning, leaving victims with burns, fractures, head injuries, amputations, or other life-impacting conditions. The legal process can be complex, involving multiple parties such as manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. We work to identify all responsible entities and pursue full compensation on your behalf.
These cases typically require a detailed investigation into how and why the product failed. Our attorneys work with engineers, safety specialists, industry experts, and investigators to analyze the defect, identify negligent conduct, and build a strong claim demonstrating the product’s danger. Whether the issue stems from faulty design, poor manufacturing, or lack of proper warnings, we are prepared to pursue accountability.
If you were injured by a defective or dangerous product, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term disability. Our firm is committed to standing up against corporations and insurers who prioritize profits over safety.

Defective Design Claims
A defective design claim involves products that are inherently dangerous from the beginning—because the blueprint, structure, or engineering behind the product is flawed. Even when manufactured correctly, these products pose an unreasonable risk of harm to consumers. Our attorneys evaluate the design, review industry standards, and compare the product to safer alternatives that could have been used.
Many defective design cases involve products such as unsafe medical devices, flawed vehicle components, unstable furniture, dangerous children’s items, and industrial tools that lack essential safety features. These cases often require expert testimony to explain how a safer, practical design could have prevented the injury.
Manufacturers frequently deny responsibility, claiming that users “misused” the product or that injuries were a result of unforeseeable circumstances. We counter these arguments by presenting evidence that demonstrates the product’s fundamental defect and the manufacturer’s failure to adopt a safer design that was both feasible and reasonable.
Defective design cases often involve high stakes, and our attorneys work tirelessly to pursue full justice for victims who were harmed by products that should never have been allowed on the market.
Manufacturing Defect Claims
Manufacturing defects occur when a product deviates from its intended design due to errors in the production process. These defects can affect a single item or an entire batch of products, making them unpredictable and particularly dangerous. Even products with safe designs can cause harm when something goes wrong during assembly or production.
Our attorneys investigate manufacturing defects by examining production records, quality control documents, and any recalls or warnings issued by the manufacturer. We work to determine how the defect occurred and whether the company failed to maintain proper safety and quality control standards during production.
Common examples of manufacturing defects include contaminated medications, automotive parts that fracture unexpectedly, appliances that overheat or ignite, and tools that break under normal use. Injuries caused by these defects often involve burns, lacerations, falls, electrical injuries, or other serious harm.
Manufacturers and insurers frequently attempt to shift responsibility by claiming user error or improper maintenance. We challenge these defenses with strong evidence showing that the defect originated within the production process—not from any action taken by the consumer.

Failure-to-Warn and Inadequate Instructions
Even well-designed and properly manufactured products can be dangerous when consumers are not given adequate warnings or clear instructions for safe use. Many products require safety labels, hazard alerts, or detailed user guidance to prevent injury. When companies fail to provide these protections, they may be held responsible for resulting harm.
Failure-to-warn cases often involve products that pose hidden risks, such as chemicals requiring proper protective equipment, medications with undisclosed side effects, power tools lacking safety instructions, or household items that can cause burns, shocks, or other harm if misused. Manufacturers have a legal duty to disclose these risks clearly and prominently.
Our attorneys review product labeling, packaging, instruction manuals, and marketing materials to determine whether warnings were missing, incomplete, or misleading. We work with industry specialists to evaluate whether the manufacturer provided the level of information required to ensure safe use of the product.
Victims of inadequate warnings often suffer preventable injuries that could have been avoided with proper information. We pursue claims that hold manufacturers accountable for failing to protect consumers from known hazards.
