Fort Worth Product Liability Lawyer

Fort Worth Product Liability Attorneys

If you’ve suffered from injuries due to a product defect, you may have grounds for a products liability lawsuit. Contact a products liability attorney in Fort Worth to hold the liable parties accountable.

Products sold in stores go through numerous safety tests before making their way to the shelves for consumers to purchase. When we buy these products, we trust that they will function properly and do what they’re supposed to do. We don’t expect a product to malfunction, much less cause us any significant harm, but unfortunately, product defects can lead to injuries in some cases.

If you’ve been injured from a product defect, it’s important to seek legal help and hold the responsible parties liable for their negligence. At Crain Brogdon, LLP., our attorneys will investigate your case and gather evidence needed to maximize your claim value. A Fort Worth product liability lawyer will help you pick up the pieces of your life by seeking justice on your behalf.

Defective Products with a High Risk for Injury

Although many products may prove to be defective, there are some products that are at a higher risk of causing injury when they malfunction. These products include pharmaceuticals, kitchen appliances, children’s toys, general electronics, medical devices, and auto parts.

When you try to file a lawsuit against a big corporate company, it may be difficult to get the company to accept fault because they don’t want their reputation to be tarnished. Although the company has enough money to pay for your injuries, its founders are likely more worried about their name and reputation being affected. With the help of a products liability lawyer in Fort Worth, we will work diligently to prove negligence with evidence.

Who’s Liable in a Product Malfunction Accident?

The manufacturer is usually named defendant in a products liability lawsuit. However, there may be other liable parties, as well. Because the product goes through many hands before making its way to you, it’s possible that the sales team, the design team, or the transportation company played a role in your product’s malfunction.

After an investigation of your accident is conducted, your attorney can determine whether one or multiple parties can be sued for liability in your case.

Fort Worth Product Liability FAQs

How long do I have to file a product liability claim in Fort Worth, Texas?

In most cases, Texas product liability law gives injured consumers two years from the date of injury to file a product liability claim. This deadline applies to defective product claims involving manufacturing defects, marketing defects, or other dangerous product issues. If you miss the statute of limitations, you may lose the right to pursue compensation entirely.

Do I need to prove negligence in a product liability case?

Not always. Many product liability claims in Texas are based on strict liability, which means you do not need to prove negligence. Instead, you must show that a defective or dangerous product was unreasonably unsafe and caused your injuries when used as intended. Strict liability often applies in cases involving manufacturing defects or inadequate warnings, shifting legal responsibility to manufacturers, distributors, or sellers under product liability law.

What should I do if the product that injured me was recalled?

If a defective product that caused your injury was recalled, stop using it immediately and keep the product in its current condition if possible. Recall notices can be powerful evidence in defective product claims because they may help establish legal responsibility. You should also document your injuries, save any recall communications, and consult a product liability lawyer who can determine how the recall strengthens your product liability claim.

Can I file a product liability claim if I was partially at fault for my injury?

Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means you can still pursue product liability claims as long as you were not more than 50% responsible for your injury. However, your compensation may be reduced based on your share of fault. Even when fault is disputed, injured consumers may still have valid personal injury claims involving defective or dangerous products.

What evidence is important in a product liability claim?

Strong evidence is critical in defective product claims. Important evidence may include the defective product itself, proof of purchase, photographs of the product and injuries, medical records, expert testimony, and documentation showing how the product failed.
