As the CPSC staff begins to negotiate settlements under new authority granted through the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, companies can expect more aggressive positions from the CPSC. Recent consent agreements give insights for the road ahead and turns companies should avoid taking when navigating product safety issues. Manufacturers, importers and sellers of consumer products will be interested in a new article published by BNA Product Safety & Liability Reporter that reviews penalties recently imposed by CPSC and recommends steps companies can take to minimize civil penalty exposure. Access the article by clicking [here](http://www.kelleydrye.com/publications/articles/1605).
