The news these days is full of safety recalls. This particular recalled product had the potential to kill.
Consumers are getting increasingly frustrated with the high number of product recalls. Do you not sometimes wish you could scream at the makers of these products; tell them to get it right the first time and not put these shoddy items on the market? You have the right to purchase goods that are safe and you have the right to purchase goods that will not harm you. If a product causes you an injury, you may have the right to file a lawsuit for compensation.
Unfortunately, the products today seem to be rushed to market; it is a competitive marketplace and there is great haste to make a quick buck. But what happened to quality control and testing? Take this latest recall by Global Equipment Company; the company recalled approximately 5,000 Workbench Power Risers, Aprons and Power Shelves because of the risk of electrical shock.
Evidently, the wiring in the electrical outlets of these benches was misrouted and reverse polarity was found in some power cords. Obviously, this is a major hazard to people using this product; just as obviously, someone must have suffered a serious injury, calling attention to the defect, in the first instance. If you own a Global Power Riser, Power Apron or Power Shelf, do not use it. Call the company; discuss replacement or repair at company’s expense.
A recall is a goodwill gesture; it is also an injury/death preventing necessity. Unfortunately, there will be people who will not hear or read about this serious defect and recall. What happens if they suffer a serious shock? They may be able to sue the maker of these products for defective manufacturing.
After they become embroiled in contentious litigation, what will they do to pay their bills? They are not working; they are at home recovering from their injuries. How will they survive? They could contact a legal funding company to find out more information about pre-settlement funding. Asking for a lawsuit cash advance is a smart strategic move for the plaintiff; it restores financial security while they wait for their case to be resolved.
The litigation funding company will issue a lawsuit cash advance within 24 to 48 hours if the plaintiff qualifies. This money goes directly to their bank account; victims use it to pay important bills and expenses while waiting for justice. Have you received an inadequate offer of settlement? Tell the insurance company to take a hike! Litigation funding has removed the financial pressure to settle early and cheap. Why not call a legal finance company and find out more?
