Defective Machinery & Power Tools

Devoted to helping you obtain the compensation you need for serious injuries

Construction equipment, industrial machinery, power tools, household products and other types of machinery and tools make our jobs and our lives easier. Many of these tools and machinery are dangerous, but you can usually minimize the dangers by following safety precautions. However, when these products are defectively designed, poorly manufactured or provided with inadequate warnings and instructions, they can cause severe and sometimes fatal injuries.

At The Bates Law Firm in San Antonio, our staff and attorney have years of experience representing people who are injured or have lost a loved one because of defective machinery and tools. With our skills and our commitment to personalized, attentive service, we've helped many accident victims recover the compensation they need through successful verdicts and settlements.
