If a choking hazard toy was accessible to a younger sibling, this does not necessarily prevent a claim, and it may raise separate questions about labeling, packaging, and how the product was marketed.
Many choking injury cases involve products that were later recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Your attorney can investigate whether a recall applies to your case.
We contacted this firm when our son suffered a birth injury. They listened to our potential case and took us on. They helped us all the way through the process, always took my calls and questions. Killino is very passionate about his work and it felt like he was upset for our son like he was his own child. The paralegal, Kayla, was always on top of things and helpful. The whole firm that we worked with really did their best for us and now we have what we need to care for our son. We couldn’t be more grateful.
