In California, the typical statute of limitations for product liability claims is two years from the date of injury or discovery of the injury. There are exceptions based on the specific claim and parties involved. It is important to speak with a lawyer early to determine the deadlines that apply to your case.
Compensation may include past and future medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. In some cases, additional damages such as home care costs or loss of consortium may be recoverable. The availability of punitive damages depends on specific circumstances and applicable law.
A lawyer is not required, but having one helps navigate complex product liability rules, gather and preserve evidence, and negotiate with insurers. A competent attorney can improve your chances of a fair settlement or a favorable trial outcome.
Liability is determined by demonstrating a defect or inadequate warnings and a causal link to the injury. This often requires medical and engineering analysis, recall records, and careful documentation of how the defect caused harm.
The recall process involves regulatory notices, recall classifications, and safety communications. We collect recall data and related records to assess how a recalled product may have affected you and your case.
Case duration varies widely depending on complexity, the number of parties, and court schedules. Some cases settle quickly, while others proceed to trial. We tailor a strategy to your situation and keep you informed about timelines.
Many cases resolve through settlements, but some proceed to court if necessary. We prepare thoroughly to present a strong case and advocate for your interests in every venue.
Causation requires showing that the product defect directly contributed to the injury. This often involves medical records, testing, and the testimony of qualified professionals who can explain the link between defect and harm.
Please bring identification, all medical records related to the injury, pharmaceutical packaging, device labels, recall notices, and any correspondence with healthcare providers. A list of questions you have for us can also help us prepare for your meeting.
