Product Liability Defense Litigation

Tennessee Product Liability Defense Lawyers

Nashville ◊ Memphis ◊ Chattanooga ◊ Murfreesboro ◊ Statewide

If your business has been named as a defendant in a product liability suit, you need sound legal counsel and you need it immediately. The negative publicity that can accompany a claim alleging the sale or distribution of dangerous or defective products can often have more financial impact on a company than the cost of a settlement or verdict. Product liability actions can drag out for months or years and the legal costs can become staggering. As long as the product liability claim remains unresolved, the market for your product may be affected.

At the law offices of James A. Freeman & Associates, PC in Nashville, we both manage and defend product liability claims nationally for several clients, and we often do the same for businesses across the state of Tennessee. We are small by design, so that we can provide every client with a high level of personal attention and help them meet their specific objectives. Yet we also have the experience, the contacts and the resources to get the job done for our clients. Contact us for a confidential consultation to discuss your legal concerns.

In our product liability defense practice, we can advise and represent large and small businesses in cases involving a broad range of products, including:

  • Children's wheel toys
  • Bicycles, mopeds, go-karts and motorized bikes
  • Power equipment, both handheld and larger units
  • Lawnmowers and garden tractors
  • Industrial equipment including conveyors, fans and balers
  • Hand tools and automotive service equipment

We also handle the defense of product liability claims involving failure-to-warn cases. We do not work on pharmaceutical liability cases.

In a product liability case, any entity involved in the design, manufacture, sale, distribution or service of the product, including component suppliers, can be found liable for damages. Whether your company was integrally involved in the design or manufacture of an allegedly dangerous or defective product or merely a wholesaler, distributor, retailer or service supplier for finished goods after sale of the merchandise, you need experienced product liability defense counsel to protect your interests.

At the offices of James A. Freeman & Associates, PC, our attorneys have over 110 years of combined experience representing businesses in Tennessee courts as well as extensive experience in other jurisdictions.

When you need experienced, dedicated and personalized representation to defend a product liability claim, we can help. Our law firm is AV-rated* under Martindale-Hubbell's peer review rating process. Contact us to arrange a confidential consultation to discuss your legal needs.
