Sacramento Defective Power Tool Attorneys

Were You or a Loved One Seriously Injured?

The very nature of power tools makes them a potential hazard. However, if a skilled user is putting the tool to the use for which it was intended, there should not be a risk of harm. Unfortunately, because defective power tools are a fairly common occurrence, injuries can happen even when a user does everything right.

Because power tools are used at home and on construction and other work sites, the injuries defective tools cause occur in the home and at the workplace. Power tools — often intended for purposes such as cutting, drilling and impacting — have the capability of causing serious harm and even death. No amount of caution, care or skill can prevent an accident or injury when a power tool is defective.

The product liability attorneys in Sacramento County at Piering Law Firm can help you get the compensation you deserve.

Types of Defective Power Tools

There is no type of power tool that is exempt from the possibility of possessing a defect with the potential to cause injury. The intended use of the tool will often determine the severity of the injury it can cause. If there is a defect in the design or manufacture of a power tool and injury resulted, you are entitled to seek compensation from the tool manufacturer.

Our attorneys understand product liability law in California and will help you pursue the compensation to which you are entitled. An injury from a defective power tool may leave you injured, with mounting medical bills, and unable to work due to the injury. You are entitled to be compensated for the various ways an injury caused by a defective power tool has harmed your life. Whether the faulty tool was a drill, saw or nail gun, you are entitled to recover for the suffering it caused.

Common Injuries From Defective Power Tools
