Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a product liability lawsuit in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts you generally have three years from the date of injury to file a product liability lawsuit. This time limit is called the statute of limitations. If you miss this deadline you may lose your right to sue.
What types of product defects can I sue for in Buzzards Bay?
You can sue for three main types of defects: design defects where the product is inherently unsafe, manufacturing defects where the product was made incorrectly, and marketing defects such as inadequate warnings or instructions. Massachusetts law covers all these categories.
Do I need to prove the company was negligent in Massachusetts?
No, Massachusetts uses 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 defect caused your injury.
