What steps should victims of dangerous or defective products take?

Following these steps could protect your health and preserve vvital evidence in your case. 

Keep the product:

Keep each part of the product, including the packaging and instructions packaging.

See your doctor:

Get medical attention immediately so a doctor can conduct a thorough examination of your injuries and provide the appropriate treatment. Not only will this help minimize the effects of your injury, but it will also create a record of the harm you have suffered.

Keep detailed notes:

Another thing you can do to help your case is to take detailed notes of the injuries you’ve experienced. Write down treatments and the progression of your injuries. It would help if you also made a note of the way the injuries have affected your daily activities, your ability to work, and the effect they’ve had oour mood or mental state.

File a claim:

Make sure you file a claim before the deadline. The deadline for filing a products liability case in Maryland is known as the statute of limitations. Injury victims will lose their chance to sue if they let the deadline pass before filing.

What are possible damages you could claim?

The word damages refers to the monetary losses you’ve suffered after being injured due to someone else’s negligence. The two main categories of damages are economic and non-economic.

Economic damages

These damages are often referred to as tangible because they are proven using invoices, receipts, estimates, pay stubs, and other similar documents. Economic damages include recovery for medical expenses, rehabilitation, therapy, lost wages and benefits because the injury limits the victim’s ability to work, and more.

Non-economic damages

Non-economic damages, on the other hand, are subjective. No one can place a monetary value on the loss of quality of life, mental and emotional distress, pain and suffering, and other intangible damages.

Who may be liable for your injury?

Your defective product lawyer in Maryland will investigate the incident that caused your injury to determine how you were injured and who’s to blame. Here’s a look at some of the parties that might be responsible.

Product manufacturer

Manufacturers have a duty to make sure products are safe to use. When they fail to meet that duty, an injury victim can file a lawsuit against them.

Parts manufacturer

If someone suffers severe injuries in a car accident caused by defective brakes, he or she could sue the manufacturer of the braking system as well as the car manufacturer, obtaining significantly more compensation in the process.

Wholesaler

Wholesalers typically act as go-betweens. Manufacturers sell their products to wholesalers, and then wholesalers sell the products to retailers. If a wholesaler knows that a product has a potentially dangerous defect and still chooses to sell it to a retail operation, that wholesaler could be held liable, too.

Retail store

The same principle applies to retailers. If they knowingly purchase defective products from wholesalers and then make those products available to the public, they could also face liability. Retailers must tell consumers of any possible dangers associated with a product. If they fail in this duty or fail to recall products that are shown to be dangerous, they could be targeted with legal action.

Product installer

You might have had an appliance installed or your electrical system repaired. A mechanic may have performed extensive work on your car. If anyone altered a product in an unsafe manner, and you suffered harm due to that alteration, you could take action against them.

What are common product liability injuries?

There are several ways defective products can cause injuries. For example, consumers can suffer broken bones, electrocutions, or burns due to defective equipment and appliances. Some common examples of dangerous household appliances include ranges or ovens with a gas leak that causes an explosion, dishwashers causing electrocutions due to faulty wiring, and fires caused by dryers.
