Areas of Focus in Product Liability Defense
Design Defect Claims
We defend companies accused of selling products with unsafe or flawed designs that allegedly caused harm.
Manufacturing Defect Claims
Our attorneys represent manufacturers in cases where products are claimed to be defective due to errors in the production process.
Failure to Warn / Labeling Claims
We defend businesses against allegations of inadequate instructions, warnings, or product labeling.
Consumer Class Actions
Our team handles large-scale class actions involving claims of widespread product defects or safety issues.
Medical Device & Pharmaceutical Defense
We represent companies facing claims tied to medical products, pharmaceuticals, or devices, often involving complex regulatory issues.
Automotive & Industrial Equipment Defense

Our Approach to Product Liability Defense
Defending against product liability claims requires a mix of technical knowledge, legal expertise, and strategic advocacy. At TKST, we leverage all three to protect our clients.
Early Investigation
When a product liability claim arises, time is critical. Our attorneys move quickly to collect and review design documents, manufacturing records, safety testing, and compliance certifications. By preserving evidence early, we strengthen your defense and often uncover key weaknesses in the plaintiff’s case before it escalates into a high-stakes lawsuit.
Expert Collaboration
Product liability cases often hinge on highly technical details. We work closely with engineers, medical professionals, safety experts, and industry specialists to challenge claims with fact-based evidence. Their insights allow us to dismantle opposing arguments, demonstrate compliance, and highlight alternative explanations for alleged product defects or injuries.
Strategic Litigation & Resolution
Not all cases should go to trial. Our attorneys develop tailored strategies to secure the best outcome for your business — whether through early dismissal, settlement negotiations, arbitration, or trial defense. When litigation is unavoidable, we fight aggressively to limit financial exposure and protect your brand.
Transparent Guidance
We believe effective defense requires collaboration with our clients. From the first consultation to final resolution, we provide consistent updates, realistic assessments, and clear guidance so your leadership team can make informed decisions at every stage of the process.

I’m beyond grateful for their hard work and highly recommend them!Posted on Jennifer Lynn DuncanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm sharing this review on behalf of a friend who is too distraught to post it themself. I have documentation of proof of all of this in case the company wants to refute any of it... I am extremely disappointed with the service I received from Thomas Kennedy Sampson & Tompkins, LLP. After working with them for two months, I still have no solutions or progress toward settling my case. From the beginning, I was only connected with a paralegal (Maryama Swindell) who seemed unable to move my case forward. While she was vacationing in Spain, I was suffering over the holidays - losing my job & home from a fatal accident. Despite repeated attempts to get in touch with an actual attorney who could assist me, I was consistently met with excuses or delays. I felt like my case wasn’t taken seriously, and there was a lack of communication and transparency throughout the entire process. I trusted this firm to provide the legal expertise and support I needed because they were referred to me, but instead, it felt like my time was wasted. If you are looking for a firm that will actively work on your case and keep you informed, I would NOT recommend Thomas Kennedy Sampson & Tompkins, LLP. Unfortunately, my experience left me feeling frustrated and without the legal resolution I was seeking and I had to fire them to find another law firm.Posted on Bill BigsbyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Horrible law firm. I personal would never use them for any representation. Staff is rude and unprofessional.Posted on J.GilmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I served as a juror on a case that Woody tried and he did a great job. From the beginning, he basically ran the courtroom, was very engaging, personable, and all the jurors liked him. Kristal was also impressive and it was a pleasure to watch them work.Posted on Paula ColemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent legal services!!
