A product liability claim arises when a defective product causes injury or damages. Liability can lie with manufacturers, distributors, or retailers depending on the defect and circumstances. You may be entitled to medical expenses, lost wages, and damages for pain and suffering.
Liability can extend to manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and others in the supply chain. In some cases multiple parties share responsibility for an injury.
California statutes of limitations apply. You typically have a limited time to file a claim, and starting the process early is important after an injury.
Compensation may cover medical bills, wages, rehabilitation, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering depending on the case.
While you may handle some claims on your own, a product liability attorney can help evaluate the defect, gather evidence, and negotiate with insurers or manufacturers.
Bring medical records, incident reports, product packaging, receipts, and recalls or warnings related to the product.
Design defects involve a flawed product concept, while manufacturing defects occur during production. Both can lead to injuries and require different legal theories.
If a product was recalled, you may still have a claim if the recall did not fully remedy the danger or if you were injured by a recalled item.
Fault is determined by examining product design, manufacturing processes, and warnings, along with medical evidence and professional testimony.
Injuries from products purchased abroad or online are generally eligible for product liability claims if the product caused injury in the United States, subject to applicable law.
