Tampa Product Liability Attorneys
Every day thousands of American consumers are exposed to the hazards of defective products, whether from unsafe prescription drugs like Rezulin or Propulsid, product recall baby seats, dangerous automobile tires, or lead paint. When people are injured by a defective product, it is important to make manufacturers pay for the harm they cause and fix defects before they injure or kill other members of the public. If you have been injured by a defective product, we can help.
At the Fernandez Firm Accident Injury Attorneys, our Tampa product liability attorneys will quickly evaluate your case and are prepared to file suit immediately after a defective product-related personal injury or wrongful death. Our experienced team of Tampa product liability attorneys has the resources and trial skills necessary to pursue defective product manufacturers and the dedication to hold these corporations accountable for their negligence.
Product Liability Law in Florida
In early America, the seller of a defective product had no legal liability. Under modern product liability law, there are a number of possible theories of recovery including strict liability, negligence, nuisance, and products liability. Pursuing any of these avenues allows the possibility for compensable damages to be recovered. Given the complexities of defective product litigation, it is important you speak with a qualified Tampa product liability attorney to protect your legal rights.
The Florida Statute of Limitations and a Product Liability Claim
The state of Florida allows injured victims to pursue a product liability claim within four years of the incident. It’s understandable that you may require time to heal from your injuries and attend to personal affairs after sustaining an accident. However, this should not deter you from seeking legal counsel as soon as possible from a qualified Tampa personal injury attorney. Legal help from an experienced law firm can help ease the burdens you face after being injured and help ensure that your case proceedings are expedited so that you can have the money to pay for your injuries and support yourself and your family as soon as possible.

Compensatory Damages You Can Recover
If you’ve been injured by a defective product or device, you may be eligible to receive both economic and non-economic damages in a product liability personal injury claim. These losses may include:
Medical Expenses
If you sustained injuries as a result of a defective product, you’ll no doubt need the financial resources to pay for them. These expenses may include medical bills, hospitalization, medications, ongoing treatments, surgeries, or rehabilitative care.
Lost Wages
If your injuries deprived you of the ability to work or to return to your former employment, your accumulated lost income may be compensable in a product liability case.
Non-Economic Damages
Depending on the nature of the accident that affected you, you may be left with some degree of trauma, not to mention the emotional toll that severe injuries can leave on an affected person. These non-economic losses are meant to account for the pain and suffering and emotional distress that you may experience due to a product liability accident.
Your experienced Tampa product liability attorney will work to ensure that you recover maximum compensation for your losses by thoroughly investigating your case, pursuing all possible avenues of insurance coverage, and holding all responsible parties accountable for their actions.
