(310) 526-8383Parties That Can Be Held Liable for a Defective Product Injury
There are several parties that may be held responsible for the injuries and losses you’ve suffered due to the defective product you came into contact with. Our product liability lawyers in Riverside can use evidence from their investigation to determine which of the following parties should be held liable:
- Manufacturer: Some defective product injuries are caused by defects that occur during the manufacturing process. If our investigators find that a manufacturing defect is to blame, we’ll take action against the company that manufactured the product.
- Product designer: In some cases, poor designs can make products dangerous for consumers. If we find that a design flaw caused your injury, we’ll pursue compensation from the company that designed the product.
- Marketers or sellers: Product marketers and sellers must include safety instructions and safety warnings to help consumers avoid unnecessary injuries when using their products. If your injury was caused by a lack of safety information, we’ll seek damages from the company that marketed or sold the product.
Statute of Limitations for Product Liability Suits in California
If you need to pursue compensation for a product liability injury in California, you won’t want to waste time getting started on your case. That’s because there’s a statute of limitations that puts a restriction on how long you have to submit a lawsuit against the at-fault party.
Under California Code of Civil Procedure 335.1, you have two years from the date of your injury to take legal action against the manufacturer of the product or another responsible party. If you fail to get your suit submitted before the two-year mark, you could be stopped from pursuing the damages you need to get back on your feet.
The good news is that as long as you contact Omega Law Group as soon as possible, we’ll likely be able to file your lawsuit on time. During your free, no-obligation consultation, we can answer any questions you have about the statute of limitations or other filing requirements.
