If you’ve been injured by a defective or dangerous product, your first priority should be recovery — but we know how hard that is when you’re overwhelmed by medical bills, lost wages, and uncertainty. You didn’t ask for this, and you shouldn’t have to face it alone.
Florida law gives you the right to seek compensation when negligence causes harm — not just to ease the financial burden, but to hold the responsible parties accountable and help prevent others from being hurt by the same product.

You focus on healing — we’ll take care of the rest.
Who can potentially be held liability in Your products liability cases
- Manufacturer – The manufacturer is responsible for designing and creating the product. If errors were made in the way the product was designed or the way it was made, then the manufacturer can be held liable for negligence.
- Distributor/Wholesaler – Distributors and wholesalers connect the manufacturer and retailers. If the actions of distributors or wholesalers made the product defective, they can be held liable for negligence.
- Retailer – Retailers refer to the businesses that consumers buy products from. If they knowingly sold a defective product or their actions made the product defective, they can be held liable for negligence.

Unfortunately, even the smallest defect in consumer goods can result in serious dangers for users, and depending on the type of product in question, defects and oversights can quickly become life-threatening. At Zoeller Law, our West Palm Beach legal team has been helping the victims of dangerous products for more than 35 years, and we are ready to put our experience to work helping victims of:
- Dangerous Pharmaceutical Products
- Dangerous Food Products
- Dangerous Children’s Products and Toys
- Automotive Defects
- Defective Household Products
Defects can arise as the result of a variety of different problems that can occur at nearly any point in the production cycle of a consumer good, and as such, we are ready to help those who have been injured because of:
- Design Defects– A design defect occurs when the product is manufactured correctly, but its initial design was unreasonably dangerous. Generally, to prove that a product has a design defect, it must be shown that the product is unsafe when an average consumer uses it in a predictable way.
- Marketing Defects– Marketing defects are applied to manufacturers or distributors who fail to inform consumers of the dangers posed by their products. A common example of a marketing defect is not adding warnings to potentially dangerous products. To receive compensation for a marketing defect, your West Palm Beach Products Liability Lawyer must demonstrate that the product was made unsafe because consumers were not warned about the risks associated with the product.
- Manufacturing Defects– Manufacturing defects are what people most often think of when it comes to defective products. These defects occur when something goes wrong in the manufacturing process and the product does not fit the intended design. If these products make it through the quality control process and into the hands of consumers who are injured by the defect, the consumer may be entitled to damages.
In product liability cases, there are a few things that can prevent you from receiving compensation or reduce the amount of compensation you receive. One of these is if a product was misused or used in a way the manufacturer or seller could not have reasonably expected. Similarly, if a product became dangerous only after it was significantly changed by the consumer, it is unlikely that the injured persons can file a lawsuit.
In Florida, you can still file a lawsuit if you contributed to your own injuries. However, the amount of compensation you are entitled to will be reduced by the amount of fault you were responsible for, as determined by the court.
If you have the terrible misfortune of losing a loved one because of a defective or malfunctioning product, you may be able to file a product liability wrongful death lawsuit. Victims’ families can be entitled to various kinds of compensation for the death of a loved one, including compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and more.
