General maritime law provides for injury from defective products, such as defective fishing equipment, defective manufacturing equipment (on a factory trawlers for example), as well as defective products used at sea. Products manufactured with asbestos or with benzene are often defective by their very nature (causing diseases such as leukemia, cancer and mesothelioma). If you feel that you have been injured by a defective product you should contact the law offices of Anderson Connell & Carey.
