If you were burned as a result of a microwaved thermal insulated bowl that caught fire, you may be able to recover damages by bringing a product liability lawsuit. These are lawsuits pursued when a product is defective in terms of its manufacturing, design, or marketing. In addition to establish a defect, our attorneys will need to establish a theory of liability. Every state requires proof of different theories to allow recovery. Some of these theories include strict liability, negligence, breach of contract, statutory violations, and breach of warranty.

When we are able to establish liability, we can recover compensatory damages. These are damages intended to make the plaintiff whole. These damages must be proven with sufficient certainty. They can include both economic and noneconomic damages. Economic damages include medical bills, reimbursement, out-of-pocket costs, lost wages, and other tangible losses. Noneconomic damages include intangible losses such as pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of consortium.
