Unfortunately, recalls often do not happen until after a consumer has suffered damages, including serious injury in some cases.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS AFTER A PRODUCT RECALL IN MIAMI?
Victims who experience a financial loss or who suffer injuries as a result of a defective product may pursue a legal claim for compensation against the product’s manufacturer, distributor, seller, or others responsible for the product. In Miami, the Miami-Dade County Civil Court presides over smaller claims and the Circuit Court presides over larger civil cases where more than $15,000 is at stake. Sometimes, cases are also heard in federal court when a product defect has caused damages.
A victim injured by a defective product can sue in an individual claim and/or could negotiate an out-of-court settlement. Class actions and other types of mass tort cases often arise after a recall, because many people are hurt by the unsafe products that were sold. Before you decide which of these options is the best way for you to try to obtain compensation, you should speak with a recall lawyer who understands the Miami court system and Florida laws for product liability.
HOW DOES A RECALL AFFECT A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT CLAIM?
If you decide to make a claim arising from a defective product, news of a recall can be very helpful in assisting you in making your case. Victims harmed by a defective product are not obligated to show the defendant in a product liability case was negligent.
However, victims must prove a defect in the product damaged them in some way or must prove losses due to a failure of the product to function as intended or a failure of a product to live up to its warranty. Products are recalled only if there are inherent problems with those products. This means that the evidence of the problems which prompted the recall, as well as the recall itself, can be helpful to plaintiffs in pursuing a claim based on a product that has caused them harm.
