    Injured by a defective or dangerous product? Government and Manufacturers Keeping Public in the Dark About Bad Products

    Public Citizen, a non-profit public interest organization, has released a troubling report on dangerous and defective products.

    The United States has  law requiring manufacturers to provide the Consumer Product Safety Commission with immediate notice of any dangerous or defective products. 

    However, the agency typicall delays nearly seven months before telling the public about dangerous products!

    You can read the full report and press release by clicking here.

    The message for Houston and Texas residents is pretty straightforward.  You cannot rely on the federal or state governments (at least with the current leaders) to prevent or protect dangerous or defective products from reaching store shelves.  You must protect yourself.  Arm yourself with as much information as possible by obtaining information outside of the government agencies. 

    One of the most productive and helpful function of private product liability lawsuit is that the manufacturers are often required to disclose what they knew and when they knew it.  And why they continued to sell defective or dangerous products.
