Next Steps

What to Do After a Product Liability Accident

If you’ve been injured by a defective or dangerous product, seek medical attention right away and make sure your injuries are fully documented. Keep the product that caused your injury and do not throw it away, repair it, or alter it in any way. The product itself is the most critical piece of evidence in your case. Take photos of the product, your injuries, and the scene where the accident occurred. Save all packaging, receipts, instruction manuals, and warranty information associated with the product. Write down exactly what happened while the details are still fresh in your mind. Do not contact the manufacturer or retailer on your own, as anything you say could be used against your claim.

Common product liability Questions

What are the different types of product liability claims?

There are three main types of product liability claims in Texas. Design defect claims argue that the product was inherently dangerous due to its design. Manufacturing defect claims involve errors that occurred during the production process. Failure to warn claims apply when a product lacks proper safety labels, instructions, or warnings about potential risks.

Who can be held liable for a defective product?

Any party in the product’s chain of distribution can potentially be held responsible, including the manufacturer, designer, distributor, wholesaler, and retailer. Our San Antonio product liability attorneys investigate every link in the chain to identify all liable parties and pursue maximum compensation.

What if the product has been recalled?

A recall can actually strengthen your case because it shows the manufacturer acknowledged the product was dangerous. However, you can still file a claim even if no recall has been issued. Our team will investigate whether the company knew about the defect and failed to act in time.

How long do I have to file a product liability claim in Texas?

The statute of limitations for product liability cases in Texas is generally two years from the date of the injury. In some cases, the deadline may be extended if the defect was not immediately discoverable. It is best to contact an attorney as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss your window to file.

What should I do with the defective product after my injury?

Do not throw it away, return it, or attempt to fix it. The product itself is the most important piece of evidence in your case. Keep it in the same condition it was in when the injury occurred, along with any packaging, receipts, and manuals. Your San Antonio product liability lawyer will use it to help prove your claim.
