Outdoor and Garden
Tool and Machinery Defects and Dangers |
|
| According to the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), each
year about 400,000 people are treated in hospital
emergency rooms for injuries from lawn and garden
tools and machinery. Lawn mowers, weed and brush
trimmers, snowblowers and rototillers can pose
a serious risk of injury or death, especially to
children. |

| The law in most states provides individuals with legal
claims and the right to compensation for injuries they suffer as a result
of a defective product or the negligence of another. The injured person
may file a lawsuit seeking compensation for his or her pain and suffering,
medical expenses, lost past and future wages and punitive damages. |
