Product liability claims can arise from a wide range of products including electronics, medical devices, household items, vehicles, and more. Any product that is defective in design, manufacturing, or lacks proper warnings may be subject to liability claims.
If you have been injured by a product, it’s important to consult with an attorney to explore your legal options and determine if a claim is viable.
Missouri law typically requires that product liability lawsuits be filed within five years from the date the injury occurred or was discovered. This timeframe is known as the statute of limitations.
It is crucial to seek legal advice promptly to ensure you do not miss critical filing deadlines that could affect your ability to recover compensation.
Victims may be entitled to compensation covering medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages related to injury caused by a defective product.
The amount of compensation depends on the specifics of each case, including the severity of injuries and the impact on your quality of life.
Product liability cases often rely on strict liability, meaning you do not necessarily have to prove negligence but must demonstrate that the product was defective and caused your injury.
This legal standard helps hold manufacturers accountable regardless of fault, focusing on product safety and consumer protection.
Missouri follows a comparative fault system, which means your compensation may be reduced proportionally to your degree of fault but not barred unless you are more than 50% at fault.
Our team can help evaluate fault and maximize your claim within the framework of Missouri law.
