A defective product refers to a product with manufacturing, design, or labeling flaws that create an unreasonable risk. If your injuries were caused by such a product, you may have a claim against the manufacturer or other liable parties.
Liability can lie with manufacturers, designers, distributors, retailers, or others involved in bringing the product to market. We identify all responsible parties to pursue full compensation.
In California, claims generally must be filed within two years of the injury. Some exceptions apply, so prompt consultation is important.
Bring medical records, proof of purchase, product packaging, recalls, and any related correspondence. Photos, witnesses, and prior communications can also help your claim.
Damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on the severity of injury and the impact on your life.
While you can file without an attorney, product liability claims are complex and deadlines are strict. An attorney helps protect rights and improve your chances of a favorable outcome.
Fault is proven through evidence of defect, causation, and damages. This may include product testing, expert reports, and documentation of injuries.
Design defects involve flaws in the product’s concept, while manufacturing defects occur during production. Both require specific evidence to establish liability.
Recalls and warnings can significantly impact liability. If a product was recalled or lacked adequate warnings, it strengthens your claim.
After filing, you may undergo discovery, settlement discussions, or a trial. Your attorney will guide you through each stage and protect your rights.
