A defective product in Florida can cause devastating injuries, leaving you or a loved one with pain, medical bills, and uncertainty about the future. The betrayal of trusting a consumer product, like a faulty airbag or dangerous pharmaceutical, only to suffer harm, feels overwhelming. Kaiser Romanello Accident & Injury Attorneys understand the physical and emotional toll you’re facing. Our experienced Florida product liability lawyers fight to hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable, securing maximum compensation with no fee unless we win your case. We guide you through the complex product liability claim process with compassion and expertise.
The Severe Impact of Defective Products
Product liability cases often involve serious injuries like brain injuries, burns, or organ damage from defective products such as medical devices or motor vehicle components. These injuries lead to costly medical expenses, lost wages, and a diminished quality of life. If a loved one suffered a wrongful death, the emotional and financial devastation is profound. Kaiser Romanello’s personal injury lawyers in Florida work to cover medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
- Injury Statistics: In 2023, the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported over 400,000 injuries from defective consumer products in the U.S., with Florida seeing its share of incidents.
- Financial Strain: Medical costs and lost income can quickly accumulate, impacting your financial stability.
- Manufacturer Defenses: Manufacturers and retailers may claim the product’s design was safe or that you misused it.
- Insurance Tactics: Insurance companies often offer settlements that fail to cover long-term care needs.
Without skilled legal representation, you risk receiving no compensation for your injuries. Our product liability attorneys build strong injury claims under Florida’s strict liability laws to prove negligence or defects. The emotional toll of a defective product injury erodes trust in everyday items, from pharmaceuticals to seat belts. Victims may face anxiety or fear of using similar products, while families struggle with the aftermath. Our law firm provides empathetic support while aggressively pursuing justice for clients in Miami, Tampa, and beyond.
Product Liability and Mobile Apps
Mobile applications, such as dating apps like Grindr or Tinder, can also fall under product liability if their design or functionality causes harm. While not physical products, apps are considered consumer products under Florida law if they fail to meet reasonable safety expectations.
- Design Flaws: A dating app with inadequate privacy protections or faulty user verification could lead to stalking, harassment, or physical assault due to negligent design.
- Failure to Warn: Apps may lack clear warnings about risks, such as meeting strangers, leaving users vulnerable to harm.
- Real-World Impact: For example, a 2023 case in Florida involved a dating app user assaulted after the app’s geolocation feature exposed their exact location due to a software defect.
- Legal Challenges: Proving app-related liability requires demonstrating that the developer’s negligence, such as ignoring known security flaws, directly caused the injury.
Our attorneys investigate app-related claims by analyzing software logs, user agreements, and incident reports to establish fault. We hold developers accountable for harm caused by defective app designs, just as we do for physical products.
Why Product Liability Claims Get Denied
Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers frequently deny product liability claims to protect their profits. Florida’s product liability law allows claims for design defects, manufacturing defects, or breach of warranty, but proving liability requires robust evidence. Kaiser Romanello’s Florida product liability lawyers investigate thoroughly to establish fault.
- Common Denial Tactics:
- Blaming user error or unrelated causes for the injury.
- Claiming the product met safety standards.
- Hiding manufacturing defects or inadequate labeling.
- Critical Evidence: Product testing records, expert analyses, and medical documentation are essential for your lawsuit.
- Legal Deadlines: Florida’s two-year statute of limitations starts when you discover the injury.
- Insurer Strategies: Insurers may delay or offer low settlements to exploit financial stress.
Our legal team gathers evidence, consults engineers, and negotiates with insurance companies to strengthen your case. In 2022, defective medical devices caused over 2,000 serious injuries in the U.S., per the FDA. For app-related claims, we analyze code and security protocols to prove negligence.
Common Types of Product Liability Cases in Florida
Product liability cases in Florida arise from a range of dangerous products. Kaiser Romanello investigates all types to secure justice.
- Manufacturing Defects: Flawed products, like a seat belt failing in a crash, causing catastrophic injuries.
- Design Defects: Poorly engineered items, such as motor vehicle components, endangering multiple users.
- Inadequate Labeling: Missing warnings on consumer products or pharmaceuticals.
- Mobile Apps: Dating apps like Grindr or Tinder with security flaws leading to user harm.
- Other Products: Defective medical devices, hazardous pharmaceuticals, or faulty household appliances.
Unlike car accidents or medical malpractice, product liability cases focus on flaws in design, production, or marketing. A 2023 Coral Gables case involved a defective medical device causing complications due to a manufacturing defect. Retailers and distributors may also share liability for selling dangerous products. Our Florida product liability attorneys pursue compensation for victims across Palm Beach and beyond.
