Act Quickly and Save the Product

If you have been injured by a product that you believe is defective it is very important to save the product and all related materials such as packaging, instructions and any warnings. Without a product to be examined by experts it can be very difficult to prove your case. The product needs to be stored in a safe area and should not be altered in any way before speaking to your attorney. It is also a good idea to take several photographs of the product as close as possible to the time of the accident.
