Prior to The Onder Law Firm’s involvement in window covering litigation, claims against the manufacturers, distributors and retailers of dangerous and defective mini-blinds and window coverings were sporadic at best. Individuals who lost a child to these dangerous products would typically seek a local attorney with no particular expertise in the field of mini-blind and corded window covering litigation. Such attorney would have to apply limited resources to cost-effectively prosecute a single case. As such, it was simply impractical for an attorney to reach to the depths necessary to unveil the truth, compile a comprehensive database of poison documents, and fully demonstrate the willful, wanton and reckless nature of the industry’s decision to allow children to die on known dangerous and defective window covering cords.
Since our involvement in window blind litigation, the firm has been retained to represent parents throughout the country in litigation against window blind manufacturers, distributors and retailers. In fact, lawyers throughout the country seek out the particular expertise of The Onder Law Firm in this unique field. We have handled and are currently handling more blind death claims than any other law firm in the country and have compiled a comprehensive database of materials and “poison documents” against the window covering industry.
We have reviewed, handed and/or are handling cases in Maine, North Carolina, Florida, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Missouri, Utah, Texas, Arizona, California, Alaska and Wyoming.
At The Onder Law Firm, we are vowed and committed to the elimination of corded window covering products in the United States. We firmly believe the elimination of cords is necessary to protect our children. We have invested our time and resources traveling throughout the country compiling documentation, taking testimony, and creating 3-D computer generated models to explain window blind hazards to juries.
Because the firm is representing many families throughout the country, we have been able to reach to depths never before explored by other law firms in the handling of these claims. To date, no other law firm in the country has accumulated the information, nor invested the resources necessary to take on the window covering industry as a whole. We are engaged in window covering litigation throughout the country and are committed to effecting a real change for the safety of our children. The Onder Law Firm has effectively raised the bar and increased the price associated with this industry’s decision to jeopardize the lives of our children.
The Onder Law Firm is a recognized leader in the field of mini-blind and corded window covering product litigation. Committed to removing corded products from the windows of every home in America, The Onder Law Firm has filed a class action lawsuit against every major manufacturer, distributor and retailer selling corded window covering products in the United States, seeking to force the window covering industry to discontinue the manufacture and sale of corded mini-blinds and window covering products, and seeking their replacement with safer cordless alternatives.
We are presently working with families throughout the country who have lost children owing to the willful neglect of this industry. We have seen children become entangled and hung by mini-blind and window covering cords when parents, caregivers, brothers and sisters are in the room. Window blind cords are a silent killer and children die regularly even under the most diligent parental care.
