How To Prove A Product Liability Claim

Defective product claims can be challenging in both settlement negotiations and the courtroom environment. However, clients like yourself can be sure that I am well-versed in products liability laws in Georgia and Alabama, including the accidents they cover and any new developments that arise.

I know the local laws as well as I know my clients, which gives me the power to pursue the best possible outcome on their behalf.

In proving a products liability claim, the law requires the following statements to be true:

• The product has caused the client injury or significant losses.
• The product is defective.
• The defect is the cause of the client’s injury.
• The client was using the product as it was intended.

Fortunately, these statements adhere to the principle of “strict liability,” which means you will not have to prove the manufacturer was negligent. As long as you can show the product was defective and harmful, you should have a strong claim.

Still, opposing counsel may try to challenge the way you were using a product or outright deny existing defects. This is another factor that makes product liability claims difficult.

My clients are frequently up against big corporations or large insurance companies that have the resources to hire their own skilled and tenacious lawyers. Rest assured, these high-powered legal professionals are no match for me and my experience with these matters.

At The Mark Casto Law Firm, PC, you can trust me to go toe-to-toe with large companies and corporations, even those that have a reputation for safe products and present a convincing defense in court. As a former prosecutor at the district attorney’s office, I have tried high-stakes cases in the courtroom for decades.

In addition to this experience and willingness to fight on your behalf, I will also present your case with a personal touch. I take time to get to know my clients, which means we can tell their stories with compassion and in a way that juries and other fact-finders will respond to.
