Product Liability Lawyer in Atlanta, Georgia

Hurt by a defective product in Atlanta — power tool, vehicle component, medical device, or household appliance? Georgia product liability law has strict deadlines.

What to do after a product liability in Georgia

  1. Get medical attention immediately. Even if symptoms seem minor — adrenaline masks injuries, and a 24- to 48-hour gap in care is the first thing insurers attack.
  2. Report and document. File a police or incident report. Take photos. Get witness names and contact info. Save every document.
  3. Don’t talk to the other side’s insurer. Their adjuster is paid to minimize what you receive. Politely decline recorded statements until you speak with an attorney.
  4. Get a free case review. The earlier an attorney is involved, the better evidence is preserved and the stronger the claim.

Georgia law specific to product liability

Statute of limitations: 2 years (injury); 10-year statute of repose for products (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, § 51-1-11). 2 years from the injury; products sold for personal/family use have a 10-year statute of repose (O.C.G.A. § 51-1-11(b)(2)).
  • Georgia recognizes strict liability against manufacturers of defective products (O.C.G.A. § 51-1-11).
  • Three theories: design defect, manufacturing defect, failure to warn.
  • Punitive damages in product liability cases are uncapped (different from most other PI claims).

Atlanta product liability FAQ

Do I need to keep the defective product?
Yes — preserve everything, including packaging and instructions. Photograph the scene. The product itself is the most important evidence.
What if the product is recalled after my injury?
A recall strengthens your case but isn’t required. You can sue even if the product was never recalled.
Can I sue the retailer or just the manufacturer?
Both — plus distributors. Georgia’s strict liability statute reaches the entire commercial chain.
Are punitive damages available?
Yes, and unlike most Georgia PI cases, they’re uncapped in product liability claims.
