The Horrible Consequences of Burn Injuries.

Did you know that every year more than one million people are burned by accident in the United States?  And here are a couple of statistics that may surprise you.  Burn injuries rank in the top five of leading causes of accidental death according to the CDC.  Also, about half of all US burn victims are under the age of four years!

If you have never been a victim thank heaven, but there are so many ways that your life can change.

1.  The results of a serious car accident
2.  Accidents at industrial sites
3.  Mishaps with electricity
4.  Dangerously hot products and drinks
5.  And a particularly dangerous one for small children - scalding hot water

If you ever need representation in the Great Southwest wouldn’t it be comforting to retain the attorney who won arguably the most important burn case in American history?  That would be New Mexico burn defense attorney Ken Wagner.  He successfully argued in favor of the victim in the McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case!  Call the office of Kenneth Wagner immediately at (505) 242-6300.

Nursing Home Abuse in New Mexico.

Have you ever thought about the number of people who live their daily lives in a nursing home?  That number is well over a million and a half and with the aging Baby Boomers it will continue to grow.  Over the next 30 years that number is expected to quadruple!  Many factors contribute to nursing home abuse.  Underfunding, ill-trained staff, and easy access to medicines, etc. are contributing factors.

Always look carefully at your loved ones for cuts or bruises that may be physical manifestations of nursing home abuse.  It is not quite so easy to spot mood changes in the patient.  You must separate a bad day from chronic abuse.  If you see physical, emotional, or mental changes in this very important person in your life it is time to take action.

Albuquerque nursing home abuse attorney Kenneth Wagner will pursue your case with sensitivity, but aggressiveness.  Nursing homes are often owned by large corporations with deep pockets.  They must be held accountable for the behavior of their employees.  Whether the suspected abuse has occurred in New Mexico or anywhere throughout the great Southwest contact attorney Ken Wagner’s office at (505) 242-6300.

What to Do if You Are Harmed by a Defective Product.

Here is how you must proceed to identify all of the defendants in a potential case if you are harmed by a defective product.  If you wish to sue anyone who might be responsible for your injury, you must identify the people and/or companies that you deem to be at fault.  Identifying all of the parties that may be liable is often a difficult matter.

There is a phrase known as “the chain of distribution”.  This is the path that the product takes on its journey from manufacturer to distributor and finally to you the consumer.  If the defective product is part and parcel of a larger product you should include both the manufacturer of the part and of the entire product. 

New Mexico Defective Product Attorney Kenneth Wagner will vigorously pursue justice for citizens against defective products.  After all, he was the lead attorney who successfully prosecuted the famous McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case.  At Ken Wager Law your defective product case is in the most capable hands.  Call his office today to make an appointment at (505) 242-6300.

A Lesson about Defective or Unsafe Products.

Every day most of us encounter a defective product.  We all have blind faith that the products we purchase are safe and will not cause us injury.  There is a term that you have certainly heard called “product liability”.  This law is designed to protect the public from irresponsible manufacturers, distributors, and retailers from selling us goods that cause injury or even death.

There are so many different types of products that may be hazardous to your health.  Look at this list…

1.)           Vehicles
2.)           Shuttle buses
3.)           Tires
4.)           Medicine
5.)           Medical products and devices
6.)           Children’s toys
7.)           Common household products

New Mexico Product Liability Attorney Kenneth Wagner has vigorously defended victimized citizens against these and many other defective products.  He was the lead attorney who successfully prosecuted the McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case.  At Ken Wager Law your product liability case is in the most capable hands.  Call his office today to make an appointment at (505) 242-6300.
