Defective Product Cases
In the United States, as a consumer, you have a right to use safe products. Consequently, when an individual is harmed while utilizing a product for its intended use, the injured consumer has a right to seek compensation for their losses, including medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Typically, defective products fall into three categories, including design defects, manufacturing defects, and marketing defects.
- Manufacturing Defects:A manufacturing defect occurs when there is an error during the assembly or manufacturing process that causes the product to be unsafe.
- Design Defects:These design defects result from an inherently unsafe product because of how it was designed.
- Failure to Warn Defects:These marketing defects occur when a product is improperly labeled or labeled in such a way that it leads to an injury. Additionally, these marketing defects can occur when the responsible party fails to warn the consumer of any potential hazards.
If you have been injured because of a product defect, you must contact an experienced Wyoming defective product lawyer at the Ochs Law Firm as soon as possible. For example, it is often critical to preserve the defective product immediately and a delay in contacting a Wyoming injury attorney can sometimes lose the best piece of evidence in your case.

Proving Liability
If you have been injured in an accident because of another person’s wrongdoing. Before you can bring a successful accident claim, you need to show that someone was responsible for the harm you endured. This often includes proving that a person or company caused you to suffer injuries because of their intentional or negligent actions.
Proving liability is complicated, tedious, and extremely detail-oriented. That is why it is best left to the hands of a skilled and knowledgeable Wyoming personal injury lawyer who knows what documentation and evidence are needed to show what happened, who was at fault, and the harm you endured.
Damages You Are Entitled To
In Wyoming, if you have been harmed because of another person’s wrongful actions, you may be entitled to certain compensation or damages. These damages include special (economic) damages, general (non-economic) damages, and evenpunitive damages.
- Special (Economic Damages):These damages are the actual losses and costs that result from the accident. They include expenses such as medical bills, personal property damages, and lost wages.
- General (Non-economic Damages): These damages are more difficult to quantify as they include more subjective losses that result from the accident. They include things such as pain and suffering, emotional anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Punitive Damages: In some instances, if the defendant’s actions are so egregious and reckless, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the defendant for their wrongdoings and to deter them from committing the act again.
