Dangerous Toys

Small children are not yet equipped with the experiences and knowledge that enable adults to more accurately and thoroughly determine the potential danger of certain actions and behaviors. As a result, they are engaged in an ongoing exploration of the world around them.

As part of this effort to learn more they frequently do things that adults or older children simply would not, including placing toys in their mouths. Because of this tendency, and generally to promote the safety of the children for whom their products are intended, toy manufacturers must produce toys that do not pose an unnecessary health risk.

If your son or daughter has been hurt as a consequence of a toy-maker’s negligence, then it may be appropriate to weigh the potential merits of a civil lawsuit.

Nothing is more important than the welfare of your child, and you deserve to work with an attorney who understands that unwavering truth.

Preventable Hazards

The most objectionable thing about dangerous toys is that, in most cases, a more cautious review of a product during the design phase or after manufacture could prevent many child injuries. But in the rush to reap profits from a new idea or to cut costs in the manufacturing process, this review sometimes does not happen as it should. Though there are many other possible problems that might make a toy dangerous, two of the most serious and widespread issues are:

• Lead Paint Poisoning
• Choking Hazards
