Does My Family Have a Defective Products Claim or a Wrongful Death Claim when a Wheelchair Caught on Fire and Claimed My Son?

We extend our deepest sympathy to you and your family and are sorry for your loss. We understand you want to hold the company liable for your losses and damages, and we also understand that it can be a confusing and overwhelming time trying to learn about your rights and remedies.

If a wheelchair is determined to be the cause of the fire, you would have a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer. While you would also have a product defect case because the wheelchair was poorly constructed or designed defectively, you and your family will be able to collect more by pursuing a wrongful death claim in Florida. The manufacturer is obligated to provide consumers with safe products. When they fail to do so, consumers can sue for their damages and losses.

As a skilled wrongful death attorney, I will guide you through the process and help you get the most compensation possible for your damages and losses. To ask me additional questions about your case, you can call my office to schedule a free consultation at the Law Office of David Benenfeld at 954-677-0155.
