How Cogburn Davidson Can Help With Your Product Liability Case in Las Vegas, NV

Product liability cases are rarely simple. Large corporations and manufacturers have deep pockets and teams of defense attorneys. That’s why you need a law firm with the skill, tenacity, and resources to take them on and win.

At Cogburn Davidson, we’ve earned our reputation through relentless advocacy and results-driven strategy. When you trust us with your case, we’ll handle every aspect from investigation to resolution so you can focus on healing. Our Las Vegas personal injury lawyers will:

  • Investigate the product and your injuries to determine how and why it failed.
  • Identify all liable parties from the manufacturer to the distributor and retailer.
  • Work with leading industry experts to uncover defects and safety violations.
  • Document your injuries, losses, and future needs for a complete claim valuation.
  • Negotiate with insurers and corporate lawyers to demand maximum compensation.
  • Take your case to trial if the other side refuses to do what’s right.

You deserve justice, not excuses. Let our team fight for the accountability and compensation you’re entitled to under Nevada law.

Understanding Product Liability Laws in Nevada

Nevada law protects consumers by holding companies accountable when their products cause harm. A product liability claim can be filed under one or more of the following legal theories:

  • Strict Liability: You don’t have to prove negligence — only that the product was defective and caused your injuries.
  • Negligence: The company failed to exercise reasonable care in the design, manufacture, or warning of its product.
  • Breach of Warranty: The product didn’t meet the safety or performance standards promised by the manufacturer.

Under these laws, you may have a valid claim if your injuries resulted from:

  • A design defect: the product was inherently unsafe from the start.
  • A manufacturing defect: something went wrong during production.
  • A failure to warn: the company didn’t provide adequate safety instructions or warnings.

Our attorneys will evaluate every angle of your case to determine which legal strategies offer the strongest path to recovery.

Common Types of Product Liability Claims in Las Vegas

Product liability cases can involve nearly any consumer or industrial product. We represent clients injured by:

  • Defective vehicles and auto parts (tires, brakes, airbags, etc.)
  • Dangerous drugs and medical devices
  • Contaminated food and beverages
  • Unsafe household appliances or tools
  • Hazardous children’s toys and products
  • Defective construction or industrial equipment
  • E-cigarettes, batteries, and other consumer electronics

If you believe a defective product caused your injury, don’t discard it. Preserve the item, packaging, and purchase records; these are vital pieces of evidence our team can use to prove your case.

What Is My Product Liability Case Worth?

Every product liability case is unique, but the compensation you can recover will depend on several key factors:

  • The severity and permanence of your injuries
  • The cost of your medical treatment and ongoing care
  • Your lost income and diminished earning ability
  • The impact on your quality of life
  • The strength of evidence linking the defect to your injury
  • Whether punitive damages may apply

At Cogburn Davidson, we take the time to fully evaluate your damages.

Not just the obvious expenses, but also the long-term effects on your physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing.

Damages Available in a Product Liability Claim

Victims of defective products may recover both economic and non-economic damages, and in some cases, punitive damages to punish reckless conduct.

Economic Damages

  • Medical bills (past, current, and future)
  • Lost wages and benefits
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Property damage
  • Out-of-pocket expenses related to your injuries

Non-Economic Damages

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Disability or disfigurement
  • Loss of companionship or consortium

Punitive Damages

If a company knowingly ignored safety risks or acted with gross negligence, a court may award additional punitive damages to send a message and deter future misconduct.

If you haven’t reached out yet to Cogburn Davison I highly recommend you do! I can’t even begin to explain what great customer service I received from when first walking in the door and having the receptionist be so nice and friendly up until my case settled! The attorney Hunter S. Davidson and his paralegal Jessica Mejia were not only friendly and compassionate but they made sure me and my family understood every step of this lawsuit! My father was neglected in a nursing home and I couldn’t find an attorney in Vegas who specialized in these type of cases. Once my friend recommended me to Cogburn Davidson and I saw their exceptional customer service I knew I was in the right place. They were able to get my father and our family the justice he deserved! Don’t hesitate and call Cogburn Davidson, you won’t regret it!

Kendelee was calm, clear, and never made me feel like just another case. She explained my options without pressure and kept me in the loop the entire time.

What If I’m Blamed for My Injury?

It’s common for manufacturers or insurers to claim that you misused the product or failed to follow instructions. Under Nevada’s modified comparative negligence law, you can still recover damages as long as you are less than 51% at fault for your injury.

However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For instance, if you’re found 20% responsible, your total recovery will be reduced by 20%. Our experienced product liability lawyers know how to challenge these tactics: protecting your rights and ensuring you’re not unfairly blamed for a company’s negligence.

How Long Do I Have to File a Product Liability Lawsuit in Nevada?

In Nevada, most product liability claims must be filed within four years of the date of injury. However, the clock may start later if the injury wasn’t immediately discovered: a rule known as the “discovery doctrine.” Because missing the deadline can bar you from recovery entirely, it’s critical to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible. Our team can evaluate your case timeline and make sure all filings are made on time.
