manufacturer designed, created, marketed, and sold the winch in a defective state that when used, resulted in severe injury. Not only this, but the product did not come with adequate safety instructions to reduce the dangers. Our team immediately began digging into the problem. We not only discovered that there had been another design but also that it was both safer and entirely economically practicable. However, despite knowing that the current design created higher risks, the manufacturer still sold the product. Additionally, the business in which our client purchased the winch was also at fault. As a company that markets professional care and use of such products, it was their duty to ensure that our client purchased a product that was not only safe to use but contained adequate safety instructions. This particular case was especially challenging since the manufacturer was not within the U.S. It is difficult to settle foreign cases, but our attorneys were not deterred. We successfully settled this case and made sure the neglect of the manufacturer would not harm anyone else. The holidays are known to be a time for merriment, but without proper precautions, they can quickly become a time of gloom. While you prepare to enjoy everything the holidays offer, take some time to follow these safety tips. Water the Christmas tree. Christmas trees, while a popular and beautiful decoration for the holidays, are a fire hazard. The NFPA states that a Christmas tree can go up in flames within seconds, especially if the tree is dry. “A dry tree can catch fire and burn faster than newspaper,” they explained in one video. If you have a Christmas tree this year, be sure to water your tree regularly. Never leave the tree stand empty of water. When it seems as though the tree is not absorbing any water, cut off two inches from the bottom to expose fresh wood. Take care of electrical circuits. For many people, putting up Christmas lights is one of the most anticipated times of year. Whether they line our Christmas trees, homes, or outside foliage, there’s something special about seeing those twinkling lights. Unfortunately, they can take a large toll on our home’s electricity. To avoid overloading your circuits, make sure you know what your house can power and what’s already being powered before plugging in several strings of Christmas lights. Schedule package deliveries. One of the best ways to avoid crowded stores during the holidays is to shop online. It’s not only easy to do but can also save you plenty of time: Get all your Christmas shopping done in a single day without leaving the house! With all of these packages headed your way, it’s also important that you stay cautious. Package theft increases this time of year, but you can take steps to avoid becoming a victim. Be sure to have your package delivered during a time when someone is home or to your workplace if you’re unable to be home.
