A defective product injury claim seeks to hold the responsible party accountable for injuries caused by a faulty product. It considers design, manufacturing, and labeling defects. The claim may pursue medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages supported by your records.
Liability can extend to manufacturers, component suppliers, distributors, and retailers depending on fault. In California, liability can be strict, focusing on defect and causation to support your claim.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, and non economic damages for pain and suffering. In some cases future medical care and rehabilitation costs may also be recoverable.
In California the statute of limitations for many defective product claims is two years from the date of injury. Some situations may alter timing, so it is important to consult promptly.
Having legal guidance helps navigate complex standards, gather essential evidence, and negotiate with manufacturers or insurers to maximize your recovery.
Bring any medical records, bills, the product, packaging, purchase information, and details about how the injury occurred to your consultation.
Many defective product cases settle or resolve through mediation, but some may go to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached.
Claim value depends on medical costs, lost income, ongoing care needs, and the extent of harm. We help quantify losses and present them clearly.
If the product was recalled, it can support liability and show the manufacturer’s awareness of a defect. We review recalls as part of the investigation.
