Product Liability
When you purchase a product, you expect it to be safe to use. Unfortunately, dangerous and defective products injure thousands of people every year — from faulty car parts and toxic chemicals to unsafe appliances, tools, or medical devices.
At Elsaleh Injury Law, we represent individuals who’ve been harmed by unsafe products and hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable. Under California’s product liability laws, companies can be held strictly liable if a product causes injury due to:
-
Design Defects: The product was unsafe from the start due to a flawed design.
-
Manufacturing Defects: A mistake during production made the product dangerous.
-
Failure to Warn: The company didn’t include proper instructions or warnings about potential risks.
Common Product Liability Cases Include:
-
Defective auto parts (brakes, airbags, tires)
-
Dangerous children’s toys
-
Faulty medical devices or implants
-
Hazardous chemicals or cleaning products
-
Exploding batteries or electronics
What You May Be Entitled to Recover:
-
Medical expenses (past and future)
-
Lost wages and loss of earning potential
-
Pain and suffering
-
Permanent disability or disfigurement
-
Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence)
These cases are complex — but we’re here to make the process clear and aggressive in your favor. If you were injured by a defective product, don’t wait.
