When we purchase products from trusted brands, it rarely crosses our minds that their product could hurt us. Unfortunately, harm caused by poorly manufactured products are more common than people think.
Product Liability Claims
It’s important to understand that you cannot file a claim against a company if the injury occurred more than ten years ago. It’s crucial that you file your claim as quickly as possible. Due to their complexity, product liability claims require an expert who can determine the cause and origin of the defective product.
Some examples of accidents that might fall under product liability include
• Injury from operating lawn equipment
• Tools that have a design flaw and run on batteries or an exterior power source
• Car accidents from faulty brake systems, airbags, seat belt or a flat tire.
