Ohio’s product liability laws give a two-year statute of limitations on filing these claims. You must bring your lawsuit within two years of suffering your injuries, or discovering your injuries, to have a valid case. You or your attorney must then prove that the drug or device contained a defect and that the drug or device caused your injuries. Your lawyer will not need to prove the manufacturer’s negligence if you can prove the item contained a defect. Hire a lawyer to handle claim filing for you, so you can ensure a smooth and successful filing process.
