Law Offices of Jason Turchin Targets Amazon Over Product Defects

The Law Offices of Jason Turchin, which specializes in product liability cases, is actively pursuing legal actions against Amazon, particularly concerning defective consumer products.

• - Fire Hazards from Faulty Electronics: Devices that overheat or malfunction, posing risks of fire and injury.
