Liability can fall on manufacturers, distributors, retailers, or others in the supply chain. Multiple parties may be responsible, depending on the defect type and evidence.
California’s statute of limitations for product liability claims generally requires filing within two years of injury, with some exceptions. Consult promptly to preserve rights and explore tolling or exceptions.
