Product liability covers harm caused by dangerous or defective products, including design flaws, manufacturing defects, or inadequate warnings. You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering, depending on the facts and California law.
A consumer who suffered harm from a defective product or their family may file. In California, the claim can be brought by the user or a guardian, with the statute of limitations applying.
In California, the deadline is typically two years from injury for product liability claims, but there are exceptions. It is important to consult with a attorney to confirm deadlines.
While you can file a claim yourself, having a lawyer helps navigate complex laws and deadlines. A lawyer can gather evidence, identify liable parties, and negotiate settlements.
Compensation may include medical expenses, lost wages, and non-economic damages. Punitive damages are rare in California product liability cases.
Bring medical records, receipts, product packaging, purchase information, and any recall notices. Documentation helps illustrate the harm and costs involved.
Liability may be based on design defect, manufacturing defect, or failure to warn. We rely on independent reviews from engineers and safety professionals to support your claim.
Recall does not automatically prevent liability; affected products could still be defective. Preserve the product, gather notices, and consult with a lawyer promptly.
