Product Liability Federal Preemption
When no minimal safety standard exists on a federal level, states are allowed to regulate safety within their own state as long as they are not in conflict with federal policy. Based on the ruling in a recent U.S. Court of Appeals case out of Texas involving tempered windows on SUVs, federal preemption of product liability law is less likely. There are many products that must conform to federal standards, which are published in the Code of Federal Regulations, and our attorney is familiar with all applicable federal and state regulations.
If you or someone close to you has been injured as a result of a product defect, contact the Scanlan Law Group today.
