Past results do not guarantee similar outcomes. Every case is different.
Our attorneys frequently represent clients in product liability cases involving:
Design Defects – Products with inherent flaws that make them unsafe even when properly manufactured, such as defective product design in vehicles or consumer electronics.
Manufacturing Defects – Problems in the manufacturing process that cause a product to fail, such as faulty wiring, defective airbags, or dangerous medications.
Inadequate Labeling & Warnings – Products without adequate safety warnings or instructions, leaving consumers unaware of potential hazards.
Medical Devices & Implants – Knee replacements, pacemakers, and other medical products that cause serious injury or permanent disability when defective.
Automotive Defects – From defective brakes to General Motors recalls, auto defects remain a leading cause of product liability claims in California.
Each of these common product liability claims highlights the importance of holding manufacturers and distributors accountable when products fail.
San Jose, the heart of Silicon Valley, is home to over 983,000 residents according to the U.S. Census Bureau. With such a large and diverse population, the use of consumer products is immense, and so is the risk of product defects.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that defective consumer products are linked to more than 29 million injuries and 22,000 deaths each year nationwide.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that California consistently ranks among the top three states for vehicle recalls, many involving manufacturing defects that lead to serious accidents.
In Santa Clara County, defective product cases are part of the broader personal injury filings recorded annually in the California Judicial Branch statistics.
These numbers underscore why San Jose product liability attorneys play a vital role in helping injured victims seek justice when dangerous products cause harm.
California law provides multiple pathways for injured victims to pursue a product liability claim. California law allows victims to file claims for defective products under three legal theories.
Strict Liability – Manufacturers and sellers can be held liable even without proving negligence, as long as the product defect caused injury.
Negligence – When a defendant fails to exercise reasonable care in the design, manufacturing, or labeling of a product.
Breach of Warranty – When a product fails to perform as promised, causing harm to consumers.
Victims may seek damages for: Economic damages include tangible financial losses such as medical bills and lost wages, while non-economic damages encompass pain and suffering.
Medical expenses and ongoing medical bills
Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
Pain, suffering, and permanent disability
Wrongful death claims for families who lost loved ones due to defective products
