Defective Products,
Devastating Injuries
When a product you trust — a car, appliance, medical device, or children's toy — fails due to a design or manufacturing defect, the consequences can be catastrophic. Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers can all be held liable.
Your Path to Recovery

Product Investigation
We identify the defect, preserve the product as evidence, and begin investigating manufacturing and design records to build your case.
Expert Analysis
Product safety engineers and failure analysts examine the product to determine the specific defect and how it caused your injuries.
Manufacturer Discovery
We pursue internal company documents — design records, safety testing, consumer complaints, and recall notices — that prove the manufacturer knew or should have known about the defect.
Full Compensation
We pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and punitive damages from every party in the distribution chain.
Kissimmee Defective Products Attorney — Product Liability Claims
Every day, consumers trust that the products they purchase — vehicles, appliances, tools, medical devices, food, and children's products — are safe to use as intended. When manufacturers cut corners on safety, use inferior materials, or fail to test products adequately, the results can be devastating injuries and death.
At HOV Law, our Kissimmee defective products attorneys fight to hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable when their products cause harm. Product liability law allows injured consumers to recover compensation without needing to prove the manufacturer was negligent — only that the product was defective.

Three Types of Product Defects
- Product liability law recognizes three types of defects, each providing a different basis for your claim:
- Design Defects — The product's design is inherently dangerous, even when manufactured correctly. The product is defective because a safer alternative design was feasible and the risks outweigh the benefits.
- Manufacturing Defects — The product deviated from its intended design during production. A single unit or batch is defective due to an error in the manufacturing process — contaminated materials, assembly errors, or quality control failures.
- Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn) — The product lacked adequate instructions, warnings, or safety labels. Consumers were not properly informed of risks associated with the product's use.
Product Liability Law in Florida
Product liability claims in Florida may be based on strict liability, negligence, or breach of warranty. Under strict liability, you only need to prove that the product was defective and the defect caused your injuries — you don't need to prove the manufacturer was careless.
Every party in the distribution chain may be liable: the product designer, the manufacturer, the component supplier, the distributor, and the retailer. This ensures that injured consumers can recover compensation even if one party is insolvent or unreachable.
The statute of limitations for product liability claims in Florida is 2 years for negligence (FL Statute § 95.11). However, evidence preservation is critical — keep the defective product, packaging, receipts, and any documentation.
Florida Laws That Affect Your Case
Statute of Limitations
In Florida, you have a limited time to file your claim: 2 years for negligence (FL Statute § 95.11). Missing this deadline typically means you lose your right to compensation permanently.
“Time is your most valuable asset after an injury. Contact a Kissimmee attorney immediately to ensure your claim is preserved.”
Modified Comparative Negligence
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence system. If you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you are barred from recovering any damages. Otherwise, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Florida Insurance System
Florida operates under a No-Fault (PIP required) system. $10,000 PIP coverage required.
