San Diego Product Liability Attorney

During your free case review, we listen to what happened, what injuries you are facing, and why you believe a product failure or inadequate warning played a role. We review any information you already have, including photographs, video, medical records, purchase details, packaging, manuals, and insurance letters, and give you an honest assessment of whether a California product liability claim may be available.

If you decide to work with us, protecting the evidence is the first priority. That may include preserving the product in its post-incident condition, along with its packaging, labels, instructions, receipts, chargers, replacement parts, and photographs of the scene.

The product should not be repaired, altered, returned, discarded, or subjected to destructive testing before the evidence is properly documented and the interested parties have an opportunity to inspect it.

Next, we investigate what failed and why. Depending on the product, qualified experts may inspect and test it, evaluate its design and manufacturing, review the warnings and instructions, and consider whether a practical, safer design was available.

We may also investigate recalls, prior incidents, consumer complaints, regulatory records, and similar product failures to determine whether the danger was already known.

Product liability cases may involve several companies in the chain of distribution. We identify the finished-product manufacturer, component suppliers, importers, distributors, retailers, and others who may be responsible.

We also evaluate whether negligent installation, repair, maintenance, or conduct by another party contributed to the injury and identify all potentially available insurance coverage.

We work with clients, medical providers, experts, and family members to document the full impact of the injury, including medical treatment, future care, lost income, pain, physical limitations, and changes to daily life. Once the evidence is sufficiently developed, we present the liability and damages claims to the responsible companies and insurers, challenge efforts to blame the user or minimize the injuries, and keep the client informed about settlement offers and options.

If the responsible companies and insurers are unwilling to resolve the case fairly, we are prepared to file a lawsuit. Litigation may involve corporate records, product inspections, expert testing, written discovery, depositions, motions, mediation, and trial preparation.

At trial, we use testimony, documents, physical evidence, expert analysis, and visual presentations to explain what failed, why the product was not reasonably safe, and how the injury affected the client and family.
