Why You Need a Lawyer
Product manufacturers have teams of highly trained lawyers, and their insurance companies have teams of adjusters who are very skilled in legal and industrial tactics that will enable them to deny, delay, and defend against your claim, no matter its validity. After you seek medical treatment for your injuries and before you speak to anyone representing the company of the product that hurt you, it is essential to call a lawyer. The insurance company’s goal is to save money for the company they represent, not to be fair to you. You need someone who is looking out for your interests.
An experienced attorney working on your behalf and representing you can prevent insurance adjustors from tricking you into making statements that damage your claim. Our attorneys will be able to take them on while you heal from the injuries the product caused.
Going up against titans of industry and their teams of lawyers can be daunting, especially if you are also facing medical bills and lost wages and trying to recover your health. The justice system can be frightening and complicated. It can also be an emotional time for you and your family. A level-headed negotiator can help reach a settlement and advise you as to what is the best possible offer.
It is in your best interest to immediately call an attorney who will be able to file the paperwork correctly and meet all of the filing deadlines. Time is an issue in cases like this where there are statutes of limitations. An attorney with courtroom experience will be able to confidently take your case to trial, better protecting your rights in court and getting you the settlement that you deserve.

What Do I Have to Prove to Win a Defective Product Liability Suit?
Four things must be proven to successfully litigate a defective product liability lawsuit. For a judge to award your settlement, we first have to establish that you were injured or suffered some kind of damage.
Secondly, we must show the court that the product that caused your injuries was somehow defective or lacked proper warnings, labels, or instructions about how to safely handle the product (or of its potential hazards). We also have to demonstrate that the defect or lack of warnings or instructions was the specific cause of your injuries or damages. This defect must have been part of the product when you purchased it.
Lastly, we have to prove to the court that you were using the defective product more or less in the manner in which it was intended at the time of the injury. If you made any modifications to the device, these modifications can not have caused the defect.
For the best chance at winning a defective product liability suit, hire a skilled attorney. A lawyer can identify and gather all of the evidence needed to successfully negotiate a settlement or take your case to court and get you the justice that you deserve.
