Most people assume that the toys that they buy for their children, grandchildren or others meet some minimal safety requirements. This, however, is not the case. Toys are not typically tested for safety unless there is some complaint. This can mean that your child may suffer extended exposure to risk of harm before you are made aware of the defects of a toy.
For example, the Thomas the Tank Engine lead paint scare unfolded over the course of several years. In that case, toys that were painted with a lead-based paint were put into the market and it was quite some time before the word regarding the toxic nature of the paint on those toys came to light. Many children suffered continued risk because of the lack of testing before toys go to market.
If you have a child who has been injured by playing with a defective toy, the issues that stand between you and justice and securing compensation can be complicated. The product may have been manufactured overseas. There may be a lengthy chain of distribution between manufacturers and the eventual retail distributors, further, evidence in these types of cases can be very complex and include medical records and business records.
