Alexandria Defective Products Lawyer

Although people should be able to trust the products they use are safe for use and will operate correctly, sometimes products can become defective because of their design or a flaw in the manufacturing or marketing process. In many cases, these broken or defective products can cause serious harm to consumers even when used as intended.

If a defective product caused your injury, you may wish to consult an Alexandria defective products lawyer. A qualified personal injury attorney could examine the circumstances surrounding your injury, determine whether you are eligible to make a legal claim, and work to hold the product manufacturer liable for the damage they have caused.

Compensation You Could be Entitled to After in a Product Liability Lawsuit

Injured people may be able to recover monetary compensation for any damage sustained as a result of a defective product. Damages may include compensation for economic damages like lost income and medical bills, as well as the pain, suffering, and inconvenience associated with an injury.

A dedicated defective products lawyer in Alexandria could help quantify the total value of either type of damages an individual plaintiff may be eligible to seek recovery for.

Limitations on Damages You Can Claim

However, there are limitations to potential damages in defective product cases. If the injured person is found to hold partial fault for an accident, their percentage of fault would be subtracted from their final damage award, according to CC §2323. For example, if an injured person’s conduct is found 20% to blame, they would only be eligible to recover 80% of the total available damages.

Like any other claim alleging injury in Alexandria, there are strict time limitations for filing a lawsuit arising from a defective product. Injured people have one year from the date they sustained an injury related to a defective product to file suit for that injury, according to CC §3492.

However, this time limit does not begin until the injured person discovers—or reasonably should have discovered—their injury and its relationship to a product defect. Failing to file within this time frame could lead to the court choosing to throw out a claim and an injured person losing the ability to recover compensation.

How a Lawyer from Our Team Can Help with Your Case

There are many ways in which a defective product lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers can help with your case. When you suffer injuries due to a company’s negligence, you should focus on your recovery and leave the rest to us.

Gather Evidence

A lawyer from our team in Alexandria can gather evidence to prove the company’s negligence, including:

  • Evidence of your injuries, like medical bills
  • Internal reports from the company
  • Reports of similar injuries

Build Your Case

We will then use this information to build a case against the company responsible for the defective product, alleging negligence. We will show that the company:

  • Was responsible for keeping consumers like you safe
  • Did not take adequate precautions and sent a defective product to market
  • Caused your injuries
  • Caused your resulting damages, including economic and non-economic losses

We will also include the amount the at-fault party owes you.

Negotiate with the At-Fault Party

A defective products lawyer from Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers will then use the case we built to negotiate with the at-fault party, their liability insurance company, and/or their legal team to recover a settlement that meets your needs.

Take Your Case to Trial

While most civil cases settle outside of court, the company might be unwilling to adequately compensate you. If we believe their settlement offer is not fair, a product liability lawyer from our Alexandria team can file a lawsuit against the liable party and argue for your case at a trial.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.

Types of Product Defect Cases in Alexandria We Can Help With

There are several different ways a product could become defective. First and foremost, though, there must be a legal basis to bring a claim for a defective product. Some of the most common causes of defective product cases that an Alexandria attorney could help with include:

  • Defective product design
  • Manufacturing defects
  • Warning defects
  • Breach of express warranty

A claim alleging defective product design refers to injuries that resulted because of a flaw with the product’s core design that affects all instances of that product. In a manufacturing defect claim, the defect comes from an error in the manufacturing process that resulted in a single unsafe product that would have been reasonably safe if not for that error.

We Can Help You Sue the Manufacturer

Claims may also arise when a manufacturer fails to do something. Consumers could file a claim for compensation if a manufacturer does not adequately warn consumers of the potential dangers associated with the use of their product.

Finally, if a product fails to meet an express warranty or any other such clear statement the manufacturer made about the product, injured consumers may bring a claim alleging a breach of express warranty. In these cases, the injured person typically must have sustained injuries specifically because the express warranty turned out to be untrue. Contact an experienced Alexandria defective products lawyer to review potential legal options.
