Understanding Product Liability Cases: What Injured Claimants Should Know
Product liability encompasses a wide range of legal claims arising from defective products, such as medical devices, child car seats, medications, and vehicular components—just to name a few. These defects can occur at various stages.
The crux of your case involves showing that although you used the product as directed, you were injured and incurred various losses. Your Boynton Beach personal injury lawyer will support your case using proof of purchase statements, photos of your condition, and the defective product itself. They may also consult with third-party engineers, mechanics, and healthcare providers who can offer their insights.
The State Limits How Long You Have to File a Product Liability Lawsuit
Often, Ged Lawyers resolves product liability cases through negotiated settlements. Many product manufacturers, designers, and advertising agencies have liability insurance for situations like these. However, a lawsuit may become necessary for a host of reasons. In that instance, you have a limited time to initiate your case.
Per Florida Statutes § 95.11, you generally have two years to file your personal injury lawsuit. The same two-year period applies if you lost a loved one. It’s vital that you comply with this deadline. By waiting too long to secure legal representation and file your lawsuit, you could lose the right to seek damages. We don’t want that to happen. So, we’re available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to take your case off your hands.
The Importance of Hiring a Boynton Beach Product Liability Lawyer
When it comes to product liability cases, you want an experienced personal injury attorney who prioritizes your needs. These cases come with many nuances that you don’t want to handle on your own. To make this challenging time as stress-free as possible, we:
- Offer our help on a contingency-fee basis. You never pay upfront fees to retain our help. Payment comes from your awarded settlement, never your pocket. This arrangement makes it possible to seek legal representation, even if you’re facing overwhelming injury-related expenses.
- Handle your case’s many obligations. From conducting an investigation to negotiating with insurance companies and manufacturers, our attorneys advocate for your rights and pursue fair compensation.
- Apply our understanding of state and federal law to your claim. Our product liability lawyers understand the nuances of state and federal laws as they pertain to your case. We use this knowledge to compel fair compensation from the liable party.
We could go on all day about our commitment to your Boynton Beach product liability claim. However, we believe that this one client best sums up what it’s like to partner with our personal injury team: “From my call from the accident scene to receiving a check, always had a direct line of communication with [Ged Lawyers]. That’s how it’s supposed to be in a personal injury case.”
Our Lawyers Seek Every Recoverable Damage in Product Liability Cases
There’s a difference between a product not meeting expectations versus causing serious injury. While a skin cream may not yield anti-aging effects, it shouldn’t pose an unreasonable threat to users’ health. The same applies to items like power tools. While these items are inherently dangerous, product manufacturers must ensure items come with proper labeling, warnings, and failsafe mechanisms. When they don’t, and their products cause injury, they’re financially liable for claimants’ losses.
Compensable losses in your case could include:
- Healthcare expenses, including reconstructive surgery, treatment costs, and doctors’ visits
- Lost wages, along with tips, bonuses, commissions, and other sources of employment-related revenue
- Loss of future earning capacity
- Property damage costs (if applicable)
- Out-of-pocket injury-related expenses (i.e., childcare costs)
- Pain and suffering and inconvenience
- Other non-economic losses, such as scarring, disability, and disfigurement
This is not a complete list of recoverable losses following an injury caused by a dangerous or defective product. Our Boynton Beach product liability team assesses various aspects of your situation when evaluating your compensable losses. Then, we implement a legal strategy that puts your needs first.
What Is the Average Product Liability Claim’s Value?
There isn’t one. How much you can recover is unique to your situation, not an established standard. The value of your economic damages (your financial losses) depends on verifiable receipts, bills, and invoices. Your pain and suffering is a different matter.
How much you can recover for that loss depends on the severity of your condition, the details of the incident, and your present quality of life. One fact remains: when you entrust your claim to Ged Lawyers, we seek everything you deserve. We don’t intend to leave a single penny on the negotiating table.
How Long Does It Take to Resolve a Product Liability Case?
Just like there’s no standard value for a product liability claim, there isn’t a set timeline, either. As noted, you have two years to file your lawsuit. But that’s the deadline for filing your case, not resolving it.
At Ged Lawyers, our team relies on its knowledge, experience, and wealth of resources to push your claim forward. If the other party unfairly stalls or delays your claim, we counter the attempt with every tool in our arsenal.
