Product Liability Attorneys in Texas
Injured by a Defective Product? We Help You Hold Manufacturers Accountable.
When you purchase a product, you trust it to be safe, effective, and free from defects. Unfortunately, many manufacturers, designers, and retailers cut corners—leading to dangerous products that cause serious injuries or even fatalities. If you’ve been harmed by a defective or unsafe product, you have the right to seek justice.
At Ratliff Jackson LLP, our experienced product liability lawyers fight to protect consumers and workers injured by hazardous products. We aggressively pursue compensation for your medical expenses, lost income, emotional distress, and more.
What is Product Liability?
Product liability refers to the legal responsibility of manufacturers, distributors, or retailers when a product causes harm due to design flaws, manufacturing defects, or inadequate warnings. If a product fails to meet safety standards or is marketed irresponsibly, victims have the right to file a claim.
Types of Product Liability Claims We Handle
We represent clients across a wide range of product liability cases, including:
1. Defective Design
Products that are inherently unsafe—even when used correctly—due to poor or negligent design. Examples include:
Cars prone to rollovers or unintended acceleration
Medical devices that fail or degrade too early
Power tools lacking proper safety mechanisms
2. Manufacturing Defects
Mistakes during the production process that turn otherwise safe designs into hazardous products:
Exploding batteries or malfunctioning electronics
Contaminated drugs or spoiled food items
Defective parts in vehicles or safety gear
3. Failure to Warn / Improper Labeling
Products must carry clear instructions and safety warnings. When they don’t, users are at risk:
Medications without proper side effect disclosures
Toys without warnings for choking hazards
Hazardous chemicals without clear usage instructions
Who Can Be Held Liable?
Several parties may be responsible for a defective product, including:
Manufacturers – Companies that design, build, or assemble the product
Retailers & Distributors – Businesses that sold the product without proper safety checks
Third-Party Vendors – Online platforms or suppliers that failed to ensure safety standards
At Ratliff Jackson LLP, we conduct thorough investigations to determine liability and build the strongest possible case.

Yes. Our team gathers expert testimony, product recalls, safety reports, and manufacturing records to support your case.
Possibly. If the product lacked proper instructions or posed unreasonable risks, you may still have a valid claim.
A product recall does not prevent you from filing a claim. Injuries caused before or after a recall may still qualify for compensation.
Time limits vary by state, but most claims must be filed within 2 to 4 years from the date of injury. Contact us as soon as possible to preserve your rights.
