Workplace Machinery Defects Lawyer
Pursuing Justice in Cases of Unsafe Equipment Failures Nationwide
Industrial and workplace machinery is meant to make jobs safer and more efficient — but when it’s defectively designed, poorly manufactured, or missing critical safeguards, the results can be catastrophic. These machines are powerful, complex, and unforgiving. One malfunction can cause life-changing injuries or death.
At McCartney Stucky, we take on workplace machinery defect cases that most law firms simply can’t — or won’t — handle. These cases require engineering expertise, deep resources, and a full trial team ready to prove how and why a machine failed — and to hold every responsible party accountable.
At McCartney Stucky, we represent clients across the U.S. If you’re searching for a machinery defect lawyer, our team is ready to fight for you.
Our Focus: High-Stakes Workplace Machinery Litigation
Every machinery defect case is unique, but many involve the same dangerous failures — missing safety guards, defective emergency stops, poor design, and inadequate warnings. Our attorneys work with
mechanical engineers, safety experts, and industrial accident reconstruction specialists to uncover the truth and build the strongest case possible.
Cases We Take
Missing or Inadequate Safety Guards
Machines that allow workers to come into contact with moving parts, leading to amputations, crushing injuries, or death.
Defective Emergency Stop Mechanisms
Failures in critical shut-off systems that prevent workers from stopping machinery in time to avoid serious harm.
Improperly Designed Controls
Controls that are confusing, poorly placed, or prone to accidental activation, creating dangerous operating conditions.
Lack of Safety Warnings or Instructions
Failure to warn about hazards, resulting in avoidable injuries from unsafe operation or maintenance.
Mechanical or Electrical Malfunctions
Sudden equipment breakdowns due to defective parts, poor manufacturing, or lack of adequate testing.
Inadequate Safety Technology
Manufacturers ignoring available safety innovations, putting profit ahead of worker protection.
