⚖️ California Strict Liability — What It Means for You

Under California's strict product liability law, you do not need to prove the manufacturer was negligent. You only need to show the product was defective and that it caused your injury. This means the manufacturer, the retailer, and every company in the distribution chain can be held liable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Very likely, yes. Under California's strict liability law, you don't need to prove the manufacturer was negligent. If the product was defective — whether it had a design defect, manufacturing defect, or inadequate warnings — and it caused your injury, the manufacturer, retailer, and every company in the distribution chain can be held responsible.

The value depends on the severity of your injuries. Cases involving serious burns, amputations, internal injuries, or wrongful death can be worth hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Factors like medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanent disability, and the need for future treatment all affect the final amount.

Under California law, you can sue every company in the distribution chain: the manufacturer, the distributor, and the retailer that sold you the product. This includes major retailers like Amazon, Home Depot, Walmart, and Target. Even if the manufacturer is a foreign company, the U.S. retailer is fully liable.

In California, you generally have 2 years from the date of injury to file a defective product lawsuit. However, there are exceptions — the "discovery rule" may extend this if you didn't know the injury was caused by the product right away. It's important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.

It costs you nothing. We work on a contingency fee basis — meaning you pay absolutely nothing unless we win your case. The initial consultation is completely free and confidential. There is zero financial risk to you.
