Illinois Dangerous Product Lawsuit - Defective and Dangerous Consumer Product

By Benjamin J. Sansone, Esq.

In a previous Missouri injury lawyer blog entry, I discussed an Illinois dangerous product personal injury claim we are pursuing on behalf of an Illinois personal injury client. He was struck violently in the face and nose by a log piece that was ejected from a log splitter. See - Illinois Dangerous Product Personal Injury Claim - Log Splitter.

Oftentimes, personal injury claims can be settled favorably prior to a personal injury lawsuit needing to be filed. However, this is an example of a case that the insurance company and I cannot agree on the amount of damages as I believe strongly that my client's several painful nasal surgeries, past and future pain and suffering, and loss of his sense of smell are much more valuable than what they want to pay.

Therefore, personal injury lawyer Ben Sansone of Sansone Law in St Louis Missouri, recently filed a MacCoupin County Illinois products liability claim against the manufacturer of the log splitter and other parties involved in the design and marketing of the defective product. A detailed list of the defective designs making this log splitter a dangerous product when put to a reasonably anticipated use are laid out in our Illinois products liability complaint, described here.
