Atlanta Dangerous Product Attorneys
If you or a loved one has been harmed by a dangerous product, the experienced attorneys at Schneider Injury Law can help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
So I contacted this firm, and Nitisha called me back that afternoon. I had so many questions and concerns, and she kindly laid out the entire process with a high degree of expertise and great customer service.
I was so impressed with that phone call. There was no pressure, no rushing into an agreement, just lots of education and empathy.
I was a little hesitant at first about the fee, but I soon learned that is a normal rate (for experts), and this team more than makes up for it.
I honestly feel that if I went to a cheaper firm, they would have earned only half of what I got in the end.
These ladies are pretty and friendly, but they are ruthless when it comes to winning the maximum settlement possible.
The whole process was super easy. Every step, including medical treatment, was presented in a quick, efficient, and caring manner.
Jade was always responsive and helpful when I had questions or needed to process paperwork.
Bethany exuded expertise and experience, in such a down-to-earth and friendly manner it was almost shocking.
They truly worked for me.
I am so happy with my outcome, and I wouldn't think twice about hiring Schneider Injury Law again.
Plus these are real people, with families, not some giant corporate machine. They deserve your business, and you won't be disappointed.

In mass tort cases, we may team with other law firms, medical professionals and technical experts. Your legal team will work diligently to uncover important facts and establish liability in such cases.
Though much of the technical investigations and courtroom activity in mass tort cases occurs outside the Atlanta region, we will be your local representative, advocating for you, protecting your rights and keeping you informed. Our goal will be to obtain the best possible award or settlement for you.
Most mass tort cases are resolved through a process known as Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). This process consolidates cases across the nation for the purpose of scientific investigation, discovery and cross-examination of expert witnesses, so that liability can be properly assigned to the responsible parties. MDL has significant benefits for you, as an individual plaintiff. It enables the court to efficiently evaluate scientific evidence and spreads investigative and litigation costs across hundreds or even thousands of cases.
It is important to note that with MDL, your claim retains its unique character. Our compensation demand will include your specific financial losses, pain and suffering, and other economic and noneconomic losses. As your injury attorney serving Atlanta, Georgia, I will be able to provide you with attentive, responsive and compassionate service, as well as vigorous representation. You will have an entire team of attorneys, scientific experts and legal professionals working diligently on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations on product liability in Georgia?
A claim is considered catastrophic if it involves a serious injury that results in:
- Disability: Permanent inability to perform normal activities.
- Lost wages: Inability to work and earn income.
- Long-term medical problems: Ongoing medical issues requiring extensive treatment.
- Loss of normal life: Inability to enjoy life as before the injury.
- Pain and suffering: Significant physical and emotional distress.
- Reduced life expectancy: Shortened lifespan due to the injury.
What is the product liability law in Atlanta?
Product liability law in Atlanta holds manufacturers, distributors, and sellers responsible when a defective product causes injury or property damage. A product can be considered defective in three main ways:
-
Design defect: The product’s blueprint makes it unreasonably dangerous.
-
Manufacturing defect: The product was built incorrectly or deviated from its intended design.
-
Failure to warn: The company did not give adequate safety instructions or warnings about foreseeable risks.
You do not need to have personally purchased the product to bring a claim. If you were injured while using it in a way that was reasonably expected, you may have grounds for a lawsuit.
Does Atlanta have consumer protection laws?
Yes. Atlanta consumers are protected by a combination of state-level laws addressing:
-
Deceptive or unfair business practices
-
False advertising
-
Unsafe or defective products
-
Breach of warranty (both written and implied warranties)
These laws give consumers the right to seek compensation when a company’s actions or a defective product causes harm.
What is the time limit for filing a product-liability claim in Atlanta?
There are two important deadlines:
-
Injury claims: Typically 2 years from the date of injury or from the date you discovered it.
-
Property-damage claims: Typically 4 years from the date the damage occurred.
There is also a separate deadline called a statute of repose. In Atlanta, most product-liability claims cannot be brought more than 10 years after the product was first sold, even if the injury occurred later. Some limited exceptions may apply, but the 10-year cutoff is strict in most cases.
