Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a product liability lawsuit in El Cerrito?
In California, the statute of limitations for product liability claims is generally two years from the date of injury. You must also file within the applicable statute of repose, which can limit claims for older products. It is important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible.
What types of product defects can I claim in California?
California recognizes three main types of product defects: design defects, manufacturing defects, and failure to warn. A design defect means the product is inherently unsafe. A manufacturing defect occurs during production. Failure to warn means the product lacked adequate safety instructions or warnings.
Do I need to prove negligence in a California product liability case?
No, California follows strict liability for product defects. This means you do not need to prove the manufacturer was negligent. You only need to show the product was defective and that the defect caused your injury. This makes it easier to recover compensation.
