Complex Product Failures. Clear Accountability.
Determining responsibility for a defective product often requires examining the product itself, installation practices, system design, warranties, specifications, and the roles of multiple parties.
Hiatt Law handles complex product claims involving manufacturers, contractors, installers, design professionals, and others whose actions may have contributed to the failure.
The firm has a particular focus on significant building-product failures, including defective PEX piping and plumbing systems, where repeated leaks, water damage, material deterioration, or system-wide failures can create substantial losses.
