What to Expect from a Product Liability Lawsuit in Frayser
Product liability occurs when a manufacturer, designer, distributor, or retailer does something that makes them negligent for the injuries their product caused to you. There are many situations where this can occur, ranging from mild to serious losses. Some examples of product liability accidents our Frayser attorneys handle include:
- Failure to warn of risks
- Hazardous materials not disclosed
- Failure to warn of a choking hazard
- Poor design that did not work, leading to injury
There are many times when a product does not seem to have any defects during the design or manufacturing phase but then does not have the right labeling to make it safe to use. Other times, the designs were flawed from the start, and the manufacturer should have known that was the case. In these cases, someone may be liable for the losses you have.

Who to Hold Liable in a Product Liability Claim
Our product liability attorneys in Frayser will listen to the details of what occurred to you and why and then work to better understand how this happened.

From there, we can determine who may be liable for your losses, which could include:
- The designer of the product
- The manufacturer of the product
- The company that assembled the product
- The company that installed the product
- The wholesaler or distributor of the product

If you sustained serious injuries or other losses due to the negligence of any party, you should file a claim. Let our Frayser product liability attorney offer guidance on what your next steps are.

Common Product Failures that Lead to Liability
The types of products that can fail are numerous. There is no limit to what they could be or how they may inflict injury on you. Some of the most common mistakes we find are in products such as:
- Medical devices
- Medications
- Toys
- Cosmetics
- Lawn equipment

In these situations, there may be a product liability caused by a product causing an injury. It could be a design flaw or a product specification that was not provided. In some way, these products failed you and caused you to suffer.
Your Economic Losses in a Product Liability Claim
One of the most common parts of your product liability claim will be your economic losses or the quantifiable losses you have due to the incident. This will include all losses in your case from the moment of the incident and into the future. Some examples of economic losses in a product liability claim include:
- Emergency medical bills
- Ongoing medical care and hospitalization
- Rehabilitation costs
- Medication costs
- Costs for ongoing specialist care
- Loss of property
- Loss of income and benefits
Your economic losses may extend into the future, especially if you need ongoing in-home care or long-term care. Because product liability claims can be complex, we always recommend speaking to an attorney about your specific areas of loss before you file your claim. Let a Frayser product liability attorney ensure you are maximizing the compensation owed to you.
