One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesA product that fails in ordinary use can change a life in seconds. In Mountain View, a Santa Clara County city of about 80,435 people, that might mean a lithium battery that overheats on a desk, a power tool whose guard gives way, a child's seat that does not latch as advertised, or an airbag that fails to deploy in a collision on US-101 or El Camino Real. California treats these cases differently from most injury claims. Under strict liability, you generally do not have to prove the manufacturer was careless. You need to show the product had a design, manufacturing, or warning defect and that the defect caused your harm. Responsibility can reach beyond the maker to the distributor and the store where the item was purchased. What matters most early on is keeping the product exactly as it is, along with packaging, receipts, and photos. LawProactive is a free connection service, not a law firm. We match Mountain View residents with an independent attorney who takes product cases on contingency, so there is no fee unless you recover.
In California you usually don't have to show the company was negligent, only that the product was defective and that the defect injured you. An attorney who knows this framework can focus your claim where it belongs.
Manufacturers, distributors, and the retailer that sold the item may all share responsibility under California law. The attorney we connect you with can identify each party rather than stopping at the brand name.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
The item itself, still in its post-incident condition, is often the heart of a defect case. We connect you quickly so an attorney can help you secure it, along with packaging and records, before anything is lost.
