How do you know if you have a product liability case?

You may have a product liability case if a product hurt you while you were using it the right way. The key question is simple: Was the product defective or dangerous?
There are a few things to consider. Did the product break or fail during normal use? Was there a warning label missing? Did the company know about the risk and hide it? If you answer yes to any of these, you could have a valid claim.
Texas law allows injured people to hold companies responsible. This may include the maker, the seller, or anyone in the supply chain. You do not have to figure this out on your own. A lawyer can review your situation and help you understand your options.

Helpful Information

How do you know if you have a product liability case?

You may have a product liability case if a product hurt you while you were using it the right way. The key question is simple: Was the product defective or dangerous?

There are a few things to consider. Did the product break or fail during normal use? Was there a warning label missing? Did the company know about the risk and hide it? If you answer yes to any of these, you could have a valid claim.

Texas law allows injured people to hold companies responsible. This may include the maker, the seller, or anyone in the supply chain. You do not have to figure this out on your own. A lawyer can review your situation and help you understand your options.

What should you do after a defective product injures you?

Your health comes first. Get medical care right away, even if the injury seems minor. Some injuries take time to show up.

After that, try to save the product that hurt you. Do not throw it away or fix it. Take photos of the product, your injuries, and anything else related. Keep receipts, packaging, and instruction manuals if you still have them.

Write down what happened while it is fresh in your mind. Note the date, time, and how you were using the product. This information could be important later.

Then, talk to a product liability lawyer. There is a time limit to file a claim in Dallas. In most cases, you have two years from the date of injury. Acting sooner may help protect your rights.

How long does a product liability case take?

Every case is different. Some cases settle in a few months. Others may take a year or more, depending on how complex they are.

A few things can affect the timeline. How serious is the injury? How many companies are involved? Is the evidence clear or does it need expert analysis? These factors all play a role.

Our team works to move cases forward as quickly as possible. At the same time, we do not rush into a settlement that may not be fair. We keep you updated along the way so you always know where things stand.

What does it cost to hire a product liability lawyer?

At Frenkel & Frenkel, we work on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront. We only collect a fee if we recover money for you.

There is no charge for your first consultation. You can call us, tell us what happened, and we will let you know if we think we can help. There is no pressure and no obligation.

Can you file a claim if you were not the one who bought the product?

Yes, in many cases you can. Texas product liability law does not require you to be the buyer. If you were injured by a defective product, you may have a claim. This is true even if someone else bought it, or if it was a gift.

What matters most is that the product was defective and that it caused your injury. A lawyer can look at the facts of your case and help you figure out the best path forward.

Texas Law Statistics

Filing Deadline

Texas gives you two years to file most product liability claims

Settlement Rate

About 67% of product liability cases end in a plaintiff settlement (industry data)

Annual Injuries

Pre-Trial Resolution

Over 90% of product liability cases settle before going to trial (industry data)

Common Causes

Design Defects

Sometimes the problem starts on the drawing board. If a product’s design makes it unsafe, every single unit could be dangerous. Even products made exactly as planned can be defective if the design itself is flawed.


Manufacturing Defects

A product can have a good design but still go wrong during production. Errors in the factory may cause certain units or batches to be unsafe. These defects often affect only some products, not all of them.


Failure to Warn

Companies have a duty to tell you about known risks. When a product lacks proper warnings or clear instructions, users may get hurt. Missing or unclear labels can turn an otherwise safe product into a dangerous one.


Medical Devices

Implants, surgical tools, and other medical devices can fail. When they do, the results may be serious. Patients may suffer complications, need additional surgeries, or face long-term health problems.


Dangerous Drugs

Some medications cause harm that the maker failed to disclose. This could include hidden side effects, contamination, or incorrect labeling. Patients have a right to know what they are putting in their bodies.


Automotive Defects

Faulty brakes, defective airbags, bad tires, or broken steering parts can cause crashes. These defects may also make a crash worse by failing to protect you. Car makers and parts makers can be held responsible.

Product Types

Automotive

Defective tires, brakes, airbags, seat belts, and steering parts may cause accidents or make crashes worse. If a car part failed and you got hurt, you could have a claim.

Medical

Faulty implants, pacemakers, surgical tools, and prosthetics may cause serious patient harm. These devices are supposed to help you heal, not make things worse.

Prescription

Some drugs come with hidden dangers. Undisclosed side effects, contamination, or wrong dosing information may put patients at risk.

Consumer

Power tools, appliances, electronics, and household items can be defective. If a product you use at home injured you, the maker may be at fault.

Children's Products

Unsafe toys, cribs, car seats, and strollers can put kids in danger. Choking hazards, toxic materials, and design flaws are common issues we see.

Industrial

Construction machines, cranes, scaffolding, and other workplace tools can cause serious injuries. Workers hurt by faulty equipment may have a product liability claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Product liability is an area of law that holds companies responsible for selling unsafe products. This includes the maker, the distributor, and the retailer. You may have a claim if a defective product injured you during normal use. The defect could be in the design, the manufacturing, or the warnings and instructions.

There are three main types. First, manufacturing defects happen when something goes wrong during production. A single unit or batch becomes unsafe. Second, design defects mean the product's plan was flawed from the start. Every unit made from that design could be dangerous. Third, marketing defects involve missing or unclear warnings about known risks.

We handle a wide range of product liability cases. These include defective auto parts like brakes, tires, and airbags. We also take cases involving dangerous power tools, unsafe children's toys, faulty home appliances, defective medical devices, and harmful prescription drugs. If a product hurt you, call us to discuss your situation.

You may be able to. Defective car parts are a common source of product liability claims. Faulty brakes, bad tires, broken airbags, and steering failures can all lead to crashes or make injuries worse. You could have a claim against the car maker, the parts maker, or the installer. We can review the facts and help you understand your options.

Several parties along the supply chain could be held responsible. This may include the product maker, the parts maker, the distributor, the wholesaler, and the retailer. In some cases, the installer may also be at fault. We investigate each case carefully to find every party that may share responsibility for your injury.
