Who is included in this ranking?

Lawyers eligible to practice in Florida, with a Davie office address and product liability as a practice area on record. It compares 10 product liability lawyers, using only facts with a cited source. The Florida Bar does not board-certify lawyers in product liability, so the practice area is the one each lawyer lists on their Florida Bar profile, which The Florida Bar does not review. How we rank.

Florida rules to know

A Florida product liability claim must be filed within 4 years of when the defect was or should have been discovered, and most products cannot be sued over harm that happens more than 12 years after the first sale.

Rule What it means
Filing deadline 4 years for injury founded on the design, manufacture, distribution or sale of a product (Fla. Stat. § 95.11(3))
When the clock starts The period runs from when the facts behind the claim were or should have been discovered (§ 95.031(2)(b))
12-year limit No claim for harm from a product with an expected useful life of 10 years or less if the harm occurs more than 12 years after delivery to the first buyer, with exceptions the statute lists (§ 95.031(2)(b))
Shared fault Product liability claims count as negligence actions: a claimant more than 50% at fault recovers nothing, otherwise damages are reduced by their share (§ 768.81)
Government rules defense A product that met the government standards for the risk at issue is presumed not defective, a presumption the claimant can rebut (§ 768.1256)
Court Where cases are heard
State court circuit Broward County is in Florida's Seventeenth Judicial Circuit

How to choose among these lawyers

Confirm the license, ask who will handle your matter, and get the fee terms in writing before you sign.

  1. Look up the lawyer in The Florida Bar's directory and check the bar number shown on their LexRanked profile.
  2. Ask whether the lawyer you meet will handle your matter personally, and how many matters like yours they have handled recently.
  3. Ask how they charge and what costs are extra, and get the agreement in writing.
  4. If you prefer to work in another language, check the languages listed on each profile.

Frequently asked questions

How long do I have to file a product liability claim in Florida?

Generally 4 years under section 95.11(3), counted from when the facts behind the claim were or should have been discovered (section 95.031(2)(b)).

Is there a deadline based on how old the product is?

Yes. For a product with an expected useful life of 10 years or less, no claim may be brought for harm that happens more than 12 years after delivery to the first buyer, subject to the exceptions in section 95.031(2)(b).

What if I was partly at fault for my injury?

Under section 768.81, which covers product liability claims, damages are reduced by your share of fault, and a claimant found more than 50% at fault recovers nothing.

Does meeting government safety standards protect a manufacturer?

It creates a presumption that the product was not defective if it met the government standards that apply to the risk that caused the harm, but the claimant can rebut it (section 768.1256).

Which court handles cases in Davie?

State court cases in Broward County are heard in Florida's Seventeenth Judicial Circuit.

Are there Spanish-speaking product liability lawyers in Davie?
