Sills Cummis & Gross PC
Product Liability - Industrial Equipment, Consumer Products and Toxic Torts
Product liability litigation has been a foundation of Sills Cummis & Gross for more than three decades and it remains one of the Firm’s largest practice areas. In addition to our preeminent pharmaceutical and medical device practice, the Firm regularly represents manufacturers of industrial equipment, chemicals and consumer products in significant personal injury and property damage claims. The Firm’s practice ranges from the defense of single plaintiff cases to the regional and national coordination of mass torts. With extensive experience before state and federal trial and appellate courts, our attorneys are known for their aggressive but practical approach to all phases of the litigation process. From claim prevention and accident investigation to complex electronic discovery, trial, appellate and dispute resolution proceedings, our array of services are uniquely tailored to meet each of our clients’ litigation and business goals.
We have represented and counseled manufacturers in a broad range of industries, including HVAC equipment, air compressors, fireplaces, electronics, computers, automotive, medical transportation equipment, office furniture, exercise equipment, toys, cosmetics, food, pet products and clothing. We have also defended toxic tort claims involving asbestos, lead, formaldehyde, benzene, silica, mold, mercury and pesticides. By working closely with our clients, we have developed a depth of knowledge of their industries, businesses and products, resulting in increased efficiencies in our investigation and handling of claims and lawsuits. We also work with our clients to devise measures to prevent claims, including product testing and labeling, and, if appropriate, product recalls.
