A defective product is one that is unreasonably dangerous due to design, production, or labeling defects. If the defect in the product caused your injury, you may have a basis for a claim.
California generally allows personal injury claims for two years from the date of injury. Certain circumstances can extend or shorten this period, so it’s important to consult promptly.
In many defective product cases, you must show the product was defective and that the defect caused your injury. California also recognizes strict liability in some product defect scenarios, meaning fault need not be proven.
Common damages include medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Depending on the case, you may also recover for rehabilitation costs, future care, and property damage.
Many cases settle without going to trial, but some require litigation. We prepare for both outcomes to protect your rights.
Liability can arise from design defects, manufacturing flaws, or improper marketing and labeling. Evidence includes testing data, recall history, and product documentation.
Bring photos of the product, purchase receipts, medical records, and any correspondence with manufacturers or insurers to the initial consultation.
Yes. Recalls and defect notices can support your claim and establish liability. We review recall documentation and defect reports as part of the case.
