Florida Product Liability Claims Are Complex

The process of developing a solid Florida product liability law case is complex. It requires identifying all the parties responsible for your injury. It also requires a determination of monetary damages. Determining monetary damages is much more than adding up your medical bills and time lost from work. Damages may include ancillary expenses, such as hiring someone to perform work that you can no longer do. Some of these damages require proof from experts. As you can see, the steps to developing a solid product liability lawsuit should only be done by an experienced and knowledgeable attorney. The Pinellas product liability law firm of  DeLoach, Hofstra & Cavonis, P.A. has the experience and resources to go up against the manufacturers at no cost to you unless we recover money.

In Florida, a product is considered to be defective when there are:

  • Design Defects
  • Manufacturing Defects
  • Marketing Defects such as improper labeling of a product, inadequate warning or deficient instructions.

If you have been injured by a defective product, whether you were the person using the product or an innocent bystander, contact our Seminole product liability attorney and we'll review your case free of charge.

Dangerous Products Injury: What To Do Now

  1. DO NOT throw out the product. You MUST save the product so it can be properly inspected.
  2. DO NOT change the product in any way. You MUST keep the product in the same condition it was in at the time of the injury.
  3. Get the names, addresses and phone numbers of all witnesses.
  4. Preserve all available evidence by taking photos, if possible, of the scene, the product and any visible injury you have.
  5. Get immediate medical treatment.
  6. Seek the advice an attorney.

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?

Under Florida law, an injured person has four years from the time the injury is discovered to file a personal injury or mass tort claim. However, an injury victim should seek the advice of an experienced injury attorney as soon as possible, for a number of reasons.

  • First, evidence may be lost or destroyed if an attorney doesn't make a legal request for records pertaining to your claim.
  • Second, it will take time to gather evidence and build a case, all of which can add to the time before filing
  • Finally, knowing the answers to your questions straight from an attorney prepares you for the road ahead, and lets you know how best to cope with your medical bills and treatment plan as your case progresses.
