Product liability covers injuries caused by defective products due to design flaws, manufacturing errors, or insufficient warnings.
These cases require proving that the defect caused your injury and identifying the party responsible, which can include manufacturers, distributors, and retailers.
A product liability claim holds a seller or manufacturer accountable when a product is unreasonably dangerous and injures a consumer. You do not need to prove intent to recover damages.
Key elements typically include duty of care, breach, causation, and damages. The process often involves gathering evidence, filing a claim, negotiations, and, if needed, litigation.
This glossary explains common terms used in product liability cases.
A product with a fault that makes it dangerous or unfit for its intended use.

A product liability claim involves proving that a defective product caused your injury. The claim can be brought against manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, depending on the defect and the evidence.
In California, multiple parties may share liability, including the manufacturer, retailer, or distributor who sold the product. Proving who is responsible depends on the defect type and the evidence gathered during discovery.
California generally imposes statutes of limitations that vary by defect type and party. It is important to start a claim promptly to preserve your rights.
If you are injured by a product, seek medical attention and document every detail. Contact a product liability attorney to preserve your rights and discuss next steps.
Many product liability cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay no upfront fees unless we recover compensation.
recalls can trigger additional claims or responsibilities for manufacturers and can support liability by showing known risks and warnings failures.
Damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, and compensation for pain and suffering where allowed, plus potential recovery for future care.
Case length varies with complexity, but preparation and evidence gathering can extend timelines. We work to move things forward efficiently while protecting your rights.
Though you can file a claim without an attorney, having a product liability lawyer helps you navigate complex statutes, gather evidence, and negotiate effectively.
