Common Types of Product Liability Claims

Defective Consumer Products

Injuries caused by defective consumer products such as faulty electronics, unsafe household items, or malfunctioning tools can have significant consequences. If a product fails due to a manufacturing or design defect, our product liability lawyers will help you file a claim to recover compensation for your injuries and financial losses.

Unsafe Medical Devices

Defective medical devices, including implants, surgical instruments, or prosthetics, can lead to serious health complications or even permanent disability. We specialise in holding medical device manufacturers accountable when their products fail to meet safety standards, ensuring you receive the medical treatment and compensation you deserve.

Dangerous Pharmaceutical Products

If you’ve suffered harm due to a dangerous or defective medication, you may be entitled to file a product liability claim against the drug manufacturer. Whether the drug was improperly tested, mislabeled, or had undisclosed side effects, we’ll help you hold the responsible parties accountable.

Defective Machinery and Equipment

Injuries caused by defective machinery or tools, particularly in industrial or workplace settings, can be severe. If you’ve been injured due to faulty equipment, we’ll help you pursue a claim to cover your medical expenses, lost wages, and any ongoing rehabilitation.

Toxic and Hazardous Materials

Exposure to toxic materials such as asbestos, harmful chemicals, or unsafe substances can result in long-term health problems. Our team is experienced in representing clients who have been harmed by exposure to hazardous products, ensuring they receive the compensation needed to manage their health and treatment.

What You Can Claim in a Product Liability Case

Product liability claims can cover a wide range of damages depending on the nature of your injury. Our team will ensure you are compensated for:

  • Medical Expenses: Including hospital bills, surgeries, medication, and ongoing rehabilitation.
  • Loss of Income: Compensation for both current and future lost wages if your injury has left you unable to work.
  • Pain and Suffering: You can claim compensation for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by your injuries.
  • Future Medical Treatment: We ensure your claim covers any ongoing or long-term medical care required as a result of the defective product.
  • Product Replacement or Repair Costs: If the defective product caused damage to other property, we’ll help you recover the costs for repairs or replacements.

The Product Liability Claims Process

Step 1: Initial Consultation

During your free initial consultation, we’ll review your case and advise on your legal options. With our no win, no fee policy, you can seek legal advice without worrying about upfront legal costs.

Step 2: Gathering Evidence

We’ll gather evidence such as product documentation, medical reports, expert testimony, and witness statements to build a strong case. This is essential for proving that the product was defective and caused your injury.

Step 3: Filing the Claim

Once we’ve gathered the necessary evidence, we’ll lodge your product liability claim with the appropriate parties. Our experienced lawyers handle all the legal aspects of your case, ensuring everything is filed correctly and on time.

Step 4: Negotiation and Settlement

Many product liability claims are resolved through negotiation, where we work to secure a fair settlement for your injuries, medical costs, and other damages. We’ll negotiate with manufacturers, insurers, or other responsible parties to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Step 5: Court Representation (if necessary)

If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we’ll represent you in court to fight for your rights. Our team has extensive experience in product liability litigation and will advocate for the best possible outcome in your case.
