Defective Guns & Firearms

Serving victims in Boca Raton and surrounding cities, firearm injury lawyer Gregg Hollander knows that statistics are lacking on injuries and deaths specifically caused by defective guns and firearms.

However, a study by the non-profit Consumer Federation of America reports that 17,696 people were treated in U.S. emergency rooms for unintentional shootings in a one-year period, while 802 died because of unintentional shootings.

In the U.S., millions of people enjoy all sorts of sports and recreational activities. And in 2010, emergency rooms nationwide treated some 4.4 million people who sustained injuries associated with those sports and recreational activities, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

That same year, recreational activities and equipment were linked to the deaths of 1,559 Americans. Across the nation, thousands of individuals are hurt or killed because they’ve used defective guns and firearms in recreational and sports activities.
