ROSE, KLEIN Californians know that passenger cars are the most common types of vehicles often involved in collisions on streets and highways, primarily because cars make up the majority of vehicles on the road.
Recalled products could injure or kill unsuspecting consumers
Most products entering the marketplace have undergone at least minimal testing to determine whether they are safe for consumers. Like most Americans, Californians tend to trust that the products they buy have met certain standards. Unfortunately, not every product is safe when it reaches consumers and buyers and users of such defective products sometimes risk injury or death. To protect consumers from defective products, manufacturers are expected to issue product recalls whenever they discover threats to consumer safety.
What happens when a person sustains a brain injury?
Many California residents know that some injuries heal relatively quickly, but many others, such as brain injuries, may require months or even years before a patient can fully recover from the injury. The brain is soft tissue encased and somewhat protected by the skull, but any blow to the head can result in a concussion or something far more severe, such as permanent brain damage.
Construction accident kills one worker and injures another
Workers in high-risk industries like construction are aware that their jobs pose risks that can cause injuries, disfigurement and even death. To prevent workplace accidents, employers and management are advised to constantly inspect the workplace and address issues that may cause harm to employees. However, not all employers put that high of importance on workplace safety. If workplace hazards are not addressed, there is a strong chance that an accident may occur.
Recalls highlight unsafe products that were sold nationwide
No one wants to use a defective product as it may cause an accident or even endanger a life. While some companies make headlines with high profile recalls, many consumers in Los Angeles County, California, may be surprised to learn the sheer number of products that are recalled every week. Products liability cases may arise if these unsafe products cause harm to consumers, resulting in injuries or fatalities.
