Recoverable Damages in a Georgia Product Liability Case

Injured consumers can seek a wide range of economic and non-economic damages. After our legal team reviews your damages, you could recover monetary awards for:

Medical Costs

We will consider all medical expenses related to your injury, including emergency care, hospital stays, diagnostic exams, imaging tests, bloodwork, surgeries, medication, and medical equipment.

If your injuries are severe and require extended care, your healthcare expenses could be more costly. We can seek damages for all future care you may require, including rehabilitative health services such as physical therapy.

Lost Income and Other Earnings

If you suffered professional or work-related damages, we can include this loss in your compensation case. This includes lost income, diminished earning ability, missed bonuses and promotions, and other lost benefits. If the accident temporarily or permanently alters your earning capacity, we can seek payment for future income losses.

Pain and Suffering

You can seek non-economic damages for the intangible losses you experienced after an accident with a product. This includes mental anguish, emotional distress, lost or impaired quality of life, scarring and disfigurement, and other related losses.

Wrongful Death Damages

If your loved one suffered fatal injuries after using a defective or dangerous product, we are sorry for your loss. Our Georgia wrongful death lawyer can lead your case if your family can recover compensation for various losses.

These include your loved one’s pain and suffering, medical expenses, funeral and burial expenses, lost income, and other related damages. We can review how wrongful death actions work under Georgia law during your free consultation.

Proving Your Product Liability Case in Georgia

In Georgia, you do not necessarily need to prove negligence occurred to win your case. If a product liability claim is based on strict liability, injured parties must prove the manufacturer or seller is liable for their damages regardless of fault or negligence.

Before we can seek damages, we must prove:

The liable party made the product.
The product was defective when it left the liable party’s control.
The product’s defect made it unreasonably dangerous to users or consumers.
The defective product injured you when you used it as the manufacturer intended or in a way that could be reasonably anticipated.
A clear link between the product’s defect and the harm you suffered.

In negligence-based product liability cases, plaintiffs must prove the item’s manufacturer or seller did not use reasonable care in the design, manufacture, or sale of the product, which resulted in your injury. Our product liability attorneys in Georgia can determine which approach suits your situation.

What Are Common Ways to Prove a Product Is Defective?

A product can fail for multiple reasons. In product liability cases, these are the most common:

Design defects: These flaws show how the product was inherently unsafe from the design stage, making it dangerous even when used as intended.
Manufacturing defects: Sometimes, products become unsafe during the manufacturing process. They can stray from the intended design in a way that makes it hazardous.
Failure to warn: The evidence we use could show that the product lacked adequate instructions or warnings about its use, putting users at risk.

Common Injuries Product Liability Cases

Defective and dangerous products at the center of product liability cases can cause a wide range of injuries, including:

Head trauma: Severe impacts from falls or defective equipment can cause traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).
Spinal cord injuries: Accidents, falls, or violent encounters can damage the spinal cord, leading to partial or complete paralysis.
Broken bones: Falls caused by defective ladders, furniture collapse, or malfunctioning sports equipment can lead to fractures.
Burns: These can result from defective electronic devices, kitchen appliances, or flammable clothing.
Lacerations: Sharp edges or unexpected breakage of products like glassware or tools can cut accident victims.
Electrical shocks: Faulty wiring in appliances or electronic devices can cause electric shock injuries.
Asphyxiation (suffocation): Inadequate warnings on packaging or defects in products like car seats can lead to suffocation risks.
Vision or hearing loss: Device explosions or malfunctions can cause permanent sensory damage.

Multiple Types of Evidence Can Prove Your Injuries and Losses

Documenting your damages is critical to your case’s success, and having the right evidence makes this task easier. Such evidence can include:

Medical records: Your healthcare records, doctor’s notes, and other documents can prove your injuries and their link to the defective product you used.
Expert testimony: A professional can establish the defect in the product and show the causation between the defect and your injury.
Product examples: The defective product itself, or similar products, can serve as evidence.
Documentation: Manuals, warnings, and communications with the manufacturer can support your case.

Filing Deadlines for Personal Injury Cases in Georgia

You have a set time to file a lawsuit in civil court. Georgia generally gives injured parties two years from the accident date to take action, per O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. Parties filing wrongful death lawsuits have two years from their loved one’s death date.

Our team will make sure that your lawsuit is filed on time. The sooner we hear from you, the sooner we can start building your compensation case. When this deadline expires, you will lose your right to sue for damages.
