Worse, you may be unsure where to turn to get the compensation your family needs for a recovery. Fortunately, the Montana personal injury lawyers at Craig Swapp & Associates are here to help. If you’ve been hurt by a product despite using it safely, talk with a Montana defective product lawyer about what you can do to get compensated for your injuries.
Who’s Liable for a Defective Product in Montana?
When you’re hurt by a dangerous product, you first need to know who’s liable for your injuries and other damages, or impacts caused by the accident. You were directly injured by a product, but a person behind that product may be liable for your suffering.
In Montana, manufacturers, sellers, and other parties involved in product creation may be held responsible for your injuries. Liability may also depend on why you were injured. For example, if the product was unreasonably dangerous on its own, the manufacturers may be held responsible. If the product was falsely advertised or mislabeled, the seller may be liable .
Compensation for Montana Product Defect Injuries
But knowing who’s liable for your injuries is only one step in your claims process. You also need to know what your claim is worth. If you’re not prepared before you enter the courtroom, it’s easy to accept less compensation than your claim is worth.
Your compensation should include both economic and non-economic damages. Your economic damages cover the financial losses you may be familiar with. These include things like medical bills, property damage, and household services if you’re unable to care for yourself independently because of the accident.
But what about non-economic damages? These damages cover the mental and emotional toll of the accident. Damages like pain and suffering , emotional trauma, and disfigurement can be calculated by your lawyer.
Time Limits for Montana Defective Product Claims
Filing a defective product claim can be complex, and it can take time. But how much time do you have after your accident?
In Montana, you only have three years to file a claim. If you don’t act in time, your claim may be dismissed.
Here’s the good news—your defective product lawyer can help you act within these time limits. They have the tools to make the process simple and fast for you. They can ensure you file your claim on time, without sacrificing your recovery time.

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
