DO I HAVE A CASE?
Colorado state laws hold manufacturers who make defective products liable if the product hurts the owner, a family member, a friend, or even an innocent bystander. If you’re unsure whether or not you have a case to file a product liability claim, explore the information below and then contact us for your free case evaluation.
TYPES OF PRODUCT DEFECTS
- Design Defect – The design of the product makes it unsafe (e.g. the way the product is packaged is dangerous).
- Manufacturing Error –The product is well-designed, but how it was made makes it unsafe (e.g. unsafe materials were used in its manufacture).
- Insufficient Instructions or Warnings – The manufacturer does not include proper instructions for safely operating the product, or warn about possible dangers from the product.
STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
In Colorado Springs, the statute of limitations for product liability cases is typically 2 years from the date of death, injury, or property damage. This means that you generally have 2 years from the date of the incident to file a lawsuit seeking compensation for your losses. It is important to be aware of the statute of limitations in your case, as missing the deadline can prevent you from being able to pursue legal action.
PROVING LIABILITY
Proving liability in a defective product case can be a difficult undertaking, as it involves demonstrating that the product in question was defective and that this defect caused the injuries or damages that the plaintiff has suffered. It is important to establish liability in these cases because it allows the plaintiff to hold the responsible parties accountable and seek compensation for their losses.
At Heuser & Heuser, our attorneys are dedicated to doing what it takes to establish liability and help our clients achieve positive outcomes in their cases.

HOW CAN HEUSER & HEUSER HELP?
Product liability cases are particularly difficult to navigate as companies often try to protect themselves and proving liability can be challenging. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is responsible for ensuring that the products we use are safe, but with millions of products on the market, it is not always possible for the commission to thoroughly inspect each one. If you have been injured by a defective product, you may face a tough battle to hold the manufacturer accountable for your injuries.
That’s where the expert product liability lawyers at Heuser & Heuser come in. We know how to thoroughly investigate the cause of the accident and identify those at fault. We will work to get you fair compensation for all of your injuries and hold the companies who made the dangerous product responsible for their mistake. By handling the legal process on your behalf, we can take the stress off of you and help you get the justice you deserve.
