Product Liability Frequently Asked Questions
How long do you have to file an Arizona product liability claim?
The answer depends on the nature of your claim. The so-called "statute of limitation" determines the time limit on the potential for legal action. In some cases, the “clock” starts at the time of injury. In other cases, it starts at the time that the injury or damages are discovered.
How much money do you need to put down to make a product liability claim?
If you have a legitimate grievance against a corporation, manufacturer, or designer, you'll likely be able to find a Phoenix manufacturing defect attorney to take your case on a contingency basis. This means that you don't have to pay legal fees upfront -- you only pay if and when you win a settlement or win at trial.
If you do "win" a liability law suit, how are damages awarded?
Again, the answer depends on the details of the case. You might be compensated for pain and suffering, loss of wages, medical bills, and trauma. If the court/jury rules that the defendant's behavior was particularly egregious, you may also be able to collect what are known as punitive damages -- damages put forth merely to punish the offending party.
If you were hurt by a product defect or recalled product in Arizona that also caused injury to other parties, are you obligated to join a class action suit?
No. However, there are advantages to filing a class action suit against a particularly egregious third party -- greater legal "firepower" and a higher profile for the case, for example.
