    Product-related injuries affect thousands of Californians every year. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), defective and dangerous products contribute to over 29 million injuries and 21,000 deaths annually in the United States. The Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) posts notice of all recalled products each month.

    In Oakland and Northern California, product liability claims are particularly common with auto parts, medical devices, and consumer products like electronics and home appliances. As Oakland continues to grow with over 430,000 consumers (U.S. Census Bureau), the risk of injuries from unsafe products also increases. Recalls of dangerous products often occur only after one or more injuries or fatalities are reported.
