New Jersey Choking Hazards Lawyers

Though many parents may not realize it, some children’s toys can present serious choking hazards. Some choking hazards are obvious, like marbles and other small objects, but many items have more subtle dangers. In fact, some manufacturers may not realize that their products are dangerous until someone is hurt by them.

Sadly, some parents do not find out that toys and other children’s products are choking hazards until it is too late. If your child choked on a hazardous toy or childcare product, contact the New Jersey choking hazards lawyers of Levinson Axelrod, P.A., at 800-346-5529.

Common Choking Hazards

The general rule of thumb is that if something is small enough to fit in your child’s mouth, then it is a choking hazard. Unfortunately, many toys are built out of smaller component parts, and if any of these parts detach or break away from the item, a child could choke on them.

Additionally, children may suffocate from certain children’s products, including:

  • Toys that can wrap around children’s necks
  • Toy packaging, such as plastic bags
  • Drop-side cribs

Anything that can wrap around a child’s mouth, nose, or neck may be a potential suffocation hazard. When a child suffers harm from a dangerous toy or childcare product, the child’s parents should contact a New Jersey choking hazards lawyer to learn more about any legal action they may be able to take.
