Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a product liability lawsuit in Ohio?
In Ohio, the statute of limitations for product liability claims is generally two years from the date of injury. However, there is also a statute of repose that bars claims for products older than ten years. You should speak with a lawyer promptly to protect your rights.
What types of product defects can I claim in Massillon?
Ohio law recognizes three main types: design defects, manufacturing defects, and failure to warn. A design defect makes the product inherently unsafe. A manufacturing defect occurs during production. Failure to warn means the product lacked adequate safety instructions.
Do I need to prove the company was negligent in Ohio?
No. Ohio product liability law is based on strict liability. You do not need to prove negligence. You only need to show the product was defective and that the defect caused your injury. This makes it easier to hold manufacturers responsible.
