Aggressive Injury Lawyers in California

A car accident claim involves one at-fault driver and their insurer. A defective product claim may involve several insurers: manufacturer, distributor, and retailer. Insurance disputes over applicable policies are common in product liability cases.

Under strict product liability, you do not have to prove the manufacturer was careless. You only need to show that the product was defective and caused your injury, unlike an ordinary car accident claim.

For example, sellers responsible for a defective product can be held liable this way, even without proof of carelessness. A negligence claim works differently, since it requires showing the manufacturer or product designers failed to use reasonable care.

The California Civil Code, including Sections 1790–1795.8 (the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act), also allows a breach-of-warranty claim. This relies on the implied warranty that a product will work safely for its intended use.

Even under strict liability, insurers often argue that you misused the product or ignored a warning label. California’s comparative negligence rules still apply, so shared fault reduces your compensation rather than barring your claim.
