Product Liability Claims in Houston
Product liability law allows injured consumers to hold manufacturers and sellers legally responsible for placing dangerous products on the market. Whether the product was flawed in design, poorly manufactured, or improperly marketed, those at fault can and should be held accountable.
At Amaro Law Firm, we’ve handled product liability claims involving a wide range of dangerous items — from automobiles and vape devices to medications and implants. Texas law gives injured parties the right to pursue claims under strict liability, negligence, or breach of warranty, and we know how to build strong cases under each.
Product liability claims can involve:
- Design defects, where the product is inherently unsafe
- Manufacturing defects, where an error in the production process makes the product dangerous
- Marketing defects, where warnings or instructions are missing or misleading
These cases often require extensive investigation, expert testimony, and aggressive legal action — and our team has the experience and resources to take them on.
Areas we cover
Defective vehicles
When safety systems like airbags, brakes, or fuel tanks fail, the results can be catastrophic. Our firm investigates accidents involving defective cars, trucks, and SUVs, holding automakers and parts manufacturers accountable for injuries caused by faulty engineering, unsafe designs, or failures to issue vehicle recalls.
Exploding e-cigarettes
Exploding e-cigarettes and vape pens have caused serious burns, facial injuries, and even death. Often, these explosions result from poorly manufactured lithium-ion batteries or a lack of safety features. Our attorneys pursue justice for victims of e-cigarette injuries, helping them secure compensation for medical treatment, permanent disfigurement, and more.
Pharmaceutical injuries
Some drugs cause more harm than good — especially when side effects are hidden or risks are downplayed. If you’ve been injured by a dangerous prescription or over-the-counter medication, you may have a case against the manufacturer or distributor. We handle claims involving undisclosed side effects, contaminated batches, and off-label marketing.
Defective medical devices
Patients rely on medical devices to improve or save their lives. When those devices are defective, the results can be devastating. From faulty knee replacement implants to malfunctioning pacemakers and surgical mesh, we help clients hold companies responsible for injuries caused by dangerous medical products.
And more
We handle many other types of product liability claims, including but not limited to:
- Unsafe household appliances
- Flammable clothing or furniture
- Defective guardrails
- Defective power tools or machinery
- Contaminated food and supplements
- Children’s toys with choking or poisoning hazards
If a product caused you harm, we want to hear your story — and help you take action.

Product liability — FAQs
What is a design defect claim?
A design defect refers to a flaw in the product’s blueprint — meaning the product is inherently dangerous, even when manufactured and used correctly. For example, an SUV with a high rollover risk due to its design may be the subject of a design defect claim.
What are manufacturing defects?
Manufacturing defects occur when a product is designed safely, but something goes wrong during production. This could include contaminated drugs, cracked medical implants, or a missing component in a car’s brake system.
What is a marketing defect?
Also called failure to warn, a marketing defect happens when a company fails to properly label or warn about a product’s dangers. If a medication causes severe side effects and the label doesn’t include warnings, that may qualify as a marketing defect.
How do you prove liability in a defective products claim?
To prove liability, you must show:
- The product was defective
- You were using the product as intended or reasonably expected
- The defect caused your injury
- You suffered damages as a result
Our team builds your case using evidence such as product testing reports, recall records, expert analysis, and your medical documentation.
Why do I need a product liability attorney?
Manufacturers, retailers, and insurance companies keep attorneys on their payrolls. These attorneys have to defend the interests of their clients. Their mission is to protect their clients’ bottom lines, not to help victims of product liability injuries.
If you have suffered an injury from a defective product, you need an experienced attorney on your side. The lawyers at the Amaro Law Firm will stand up to these corporate attorneys can:
- Investigate the defect thoroughly
- Gather and preserve crucial evidence
- Negotiate with large corporations and insurers
- Take your case to trial if needed
Without an experienced attorney, it’s easy to be overwhelmed or pushed into an unfair settlement. At Amaro Law Firm, we’re here to protect your rights and pursue the outcome you deserve.
