Rebuilding After an Injury Caused by a Defective Product
A sudden injury caused by a defective consumer item, faulty medical device, or broken machinery can derail your health and peace of mind in an instant. Right now, you are likely facing intense physical pain, unexpected medical bills, and anxiety about your long-term recovery.
Dealing with multi-billion-dollar manufacturers, distributors, and their corporate legal teams should never fall on your shoulders while you are trying to heal. Our dedicated legal team is ready to step in as your legal shield, holding negligent corporations accountable so you can focus entirely on your physical recovery.
You Pay Absolutely Nothing Unless We Win Your Case
When unexpected hospital bills are stacking up and your injuries prevent you from earning a living, upfront legal fees should be the last thing you worry about.
That is why Craig Swapp & Associates operates on a strict contingency fee model—meaning you owe us absolutely nothing out-of-pocket unless we successfully secure a financial settlement check on your behalf. We manage every single aspect of your product liability claim so you don’t have to:
- Stop corporate deflection: We take over all direct communication, blocking corporate insurance adjusters from trying to blame you or downplay your injuries.
- Secure maximum compensation: We aggressively pursue full damages for your medical treatments, specialized surgical care, long-term rehabilitation, and lost wages.
- Investigate the supply chain: We trace the defect back through the manufacturer, component suppliers, and distributors to target every liable party.
- Prove the defect: We collaborate with independent engineering and safety experts to demonstrate how the product was fundamentally unsafe.
Protecting Your Rights Under the Washington Product Liability Act
Washington enforces a unified statutory framework that places strict demands on corporate manufacturers and sellers:
- The 3-year discovery deadline: Under RCW 7.72.060, you have a strict three-year window from the date you discovered, or reasonably should have discovered, your injury to file a claim. Corporate legal teams will intentionally stall your inquiries, hoping you let this clock expire so your rights are permanently wiped out.
- The 12-year useful safe life trap: Washington enforces a strict statute of repose under RCW 7.72.060(2), creating a legal presumption that a product’s “useful safe life” expires 12 years after its initial delivery. If you were injured by an older product, corporate defense lawyers will aggressively try to dismiss your claim entirely.
- The product misuse defense: Corporate attorneys heavily exploit Washington’s pure comparative fault system under RCW 4.22.005. They will desperately look for any excuse—such as claiming you altered, misused, or failed to maintain the product—to twist your statements and shift blame to drastically reduce your payout.
Acting quickly allows our legal team to legally secure the physical product, preserve critical manufacturing logs, and lock down expert testimonies before the evidence disappears or is destroyed.
