A product liability case involves a claim against a manufacturer, distributor, or seller for injuries caused by a defective or unsafe product. This can include design defects, manufacturing flaws, or insufficient warnings.
If you believe a product caused you harm, it’s important to consult with a lawyer promptly to understand your rights and legal options.
Missouri law generally requires product liability claims to be filed within five years from the date of the injury or discovery of the harm caused by the product.
Timely consultation with an attorney is crucial to ensure your claim is filed within the applicable statute of limitations and to preserve important evidence.
In many product liability cases, proving negligence is not required; rather, you must demonstrate that the product was defective and that the defect caused your injury.
Different legal theories apply depending on the type of defect, so legal advice is essential to determine the best approach.
Product liability claims typically require that the product was used as intended or in a reasonably foreseeable manner. Misuse may affect your ability to recover damages.
Discussing your situation with a lawyer can clarify potential impacts and legal strategies.
Possible damages include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and sometimes punitive damages if the conduct was especially egregious.
Each case is unique, so an attorney can evaluate your circumstances to identify entitled compensation.
Our firm typically works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay legal fees only if we successfully recover compensation for you.
We offer free consultations to discuss your case and explain the fee structure upfront, ensuring transparency.
The duration of a product liability case depends on factors such as the complexity of the case, availability of evidence, and cooperation of involved parties.
Our team strives to resolve cases as efficiently as possible while advocating diligently for your best interests.
Maintain thorough documentation of the defective product, injuries, and any related expenses to strengthen your case.
Prompt medical evaluation documents your injuries and supports your claim for damages.
If possible, keep the defective product intact as evidence for your attorney and any investigations.
Early legal consultation helps protect your rights and ensures timely action in complex product liability matters.
