A product liability case typically involves harm caused by a defective, improperly designed, or insufficiently warned-about product. This can include manufacturing defects, design flaws, and failure to provide adequate safety instructions or warnings.
If you have been injured or suffered property damage due to such products, you may be entitled to compensation under Missouri law. Consulting with a knowledgeable attorney can help evaluate your situation.
Missouri generally requires product liability claims to be filed within five years from the date of injury or discovery of the defect. However, specific circumstances can affect this deadline.
It is important to act promptly and consult a lawyer to ensure your claim is filed within the legal time limits and your rights are preserved.
Product liability cases can be based on strict liability, meaning you do not need to prove negligence. It must be shown that the product was defective and caused your injury.
Nonetheless, gathering evidence to demonstrate the defect and its impact is essential for a successful claim.
You may recover damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and in some cases, punitive damages meant to deter wrongdoing.
Compensation aims to make you whole and hold responsible parties accountable for their actions.
Many attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no upfront costs and only pay fees if you successfully recover compensation.
This arrangement helps ensure that legal representation is accessible to those who need it without financial barriers.
