You probably use household fixtures and appliances every day without thinking twice about it. You expect these devices to not only work correctly but to be safe for you and your family to use. Unfortunately, each year thousands of people are seriously injured by defective household products and appliances. If you are one of these people, contact the Hollywood law offices of Flaxman Law Group at any time to find out what your options might be for seeking compensation for your injuries. You may not have to go through the process of paying for your medical bills and other expenses by yourself. There are options that allow you to seek compensation.
What Injuries Lead to Products Liability Claims in Hollywood?There are many types of household appliance injuries that can be caused by defective products:
Although some appliances and household devices – such as power saws and power tools – are obviously more dangerous, any household item or appliance can be unsafe if it is defective. From children’s toys to the appliances in your kitchen, any item can be dangerous if manufacturers are negligent.
Getting Compensation for Your injuriesHousehold items are expected to be safe when they are used in the manner they are intended and for the purpose they are intended. Unfortunately, when household fixtures and appliances cause serious injury, it can be difficult for victims to get fair compensation. Manufacturers may claim that the victim altered the product, used it incorrectly, or use it for a different purpose than for what it was intended.
If you have been injured by a consumer product, you deserve justice. Holding those people who are responsible for your injuries accountable ensures that other people aren't injured in the same way and ensures that manufacturers are pressured to make safer products. Seeking a legal claim can also help you find compensation to pay for your medical bills, lost income, and other bills you may be facing after your injuries.
If you have been injured by household fixture or appliance, keep not only the documentation about the product – such as any receipts or manuals you have – but also the product itself. Once you have sought immediate medical help for your injuries, contact a personal injury attorney in Hollywood or your community to review your situation. Depending on the specifics, you may have a legal claim or you may be able to negotiate with your homeowners insurance in order to cover the costs of your injuries.
