Read on to discover if you have an eligible product liability claim and how hiring a defective products attorney can help your case.
What Is Product Liability?
Product liability is the legal liability held by manufacturers and sellers to compensate users for harm caused by defective products placed on the market. Companies are obligated to protect their goods’ users from injury and prevent faulty products from entering the market. If a product causes harm to a customer when it is used as intended, they can pursue a civil claim to receive compensation for their damages.
Product liability can fall on all parties connected to the making and selling of a product, including designers, manufacturers, assembly plants, distributors, and retailers. If one of these parties was aware of the defect or harm that this product could cause, their level of responsibility would increase.
Determine If You Have A Defective Product Claim
Victims can file product liability claims for damages caused by all kinds of consumer goods. The most common claims involve garden equipment, automobiles, hand tools, furniture, toys, medication, and appliances. If one of these defective products harms you, you can pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain, and emotional distress.
If you are a family member of someone killed by a defective product, you can also pursue a product liability claim for wrongful death. Victim family members can receive compensation for the deceased’s loss of income, medical bills, funeral costs, and companionship.
To file a successful product liability claim, you need to prove that the following:
- The product was defective
- You used the product as intended
- The defect caused some type of harm
- The damage incurred is eligible for compensation
It is also essential to gather proof of harm caused by the product defect to support your claims. Proof can include medical records, witness statements, and documentation of purchase.
Damages You Can Recover in a Defective Product Lawsuit
Defective products can cause significant harm and ongoing damage. Along with initial medical expenses, the company can be liable for:
- Reoccurring medical care
- Loss of earning capacity
- Property damage
- Emotional hardship
- Loss of support for dependants
- Hospitalization and treatments
Many faulty product lawsuits settle out of court, with the company or insurer of the company providing an offer of compensation for damages. If you do not settle with the company, you can pursue a civil claim against the company in court. Often, the product has harmed multiple people, and all defendants can pursue a class action case or multi-district consumer product litigation.

Frequently Asked Questions
The statute of limitations in California gives plaintiffs two years from the date of injury to file a defective product claim. This deadline ensures that evidence for the case remains available and witness memories are clear. It’s essential to contact the Law Offices of Jacob Emrani before this deadline, or the case will be time-barred, and you will not receive compensation.

Any party involved in a product’s chain of distribution, such as the manufacturer, distributor, supplier, or retailer, has a responsibility to exercise reasonable care. When one or more of these parties do not meet that standard of care and their actions cause injury to a customer, they have acted negligently. Negligence claims include product design errors, careless mistakes, or failure to warn customers of potential dangers.
