Injured by a Defective Pressure Cooker?

Call us today to find out if you are eligible for compensation

A pressure cooker explosion can occur if the vent, seal, or another component malfunctions or has a design defect. Even if a valve releases steam as it is designed to do, it is still possible for some steam pockets to remain and cause an explosion. Injuries may occur if the lid opens unexpectedly, the appliance overheats, or there is an electrical shortage. Accidents may be caused by defective parts, such as safety pins, safety valves, and gaskets. A company may rush to bring a new product to market and may cut corners in the design or manufacturing process or fail to adequately test the product to make sure it is safe before selling it to the general public. In other cases, the manufacturer may fail to provide adequate instructions in explaining how to use the product safely.

If a pressure cooker caused you to suffer an injury, the manufacturer may instruct you to send the product back to them for an inspection. You should not send away the product just yet. Instead, you should store it in a safe space and contact our office immediately. We will inspect the product and determine if you may have a qualifying claim. If you or a loved one were injured by a defective or otherwise unsafe pressure cooker, we encourage you to take action now by filling out the contact form on the right or below, or call our office at (877) 448-8404, and find out how we may help.

FAQ's

How Much May My Case Be Worth?

A pressure cooker lawsuit may seek compensation for physical injuries, past and future pain and suffering, emotional damages, and other types of non-economic claims. The suit may also seek compensation for past and future medical bills, lost wages, and loss of earning capacity. Some states allow additional claims against the product manufacturer. These awards can vary from case to case depending on the severity of the injuries and extent of the medical treatment.

How Do I Know If I Have a Legitimate Pressure Cooker Explosion Case?

If your pressure cooker explosion happened because you failed to follow the directions and used it in a way that wasn’t intended by the manufacturers, you probably won’t qualify for a product liability claim. You may be able to secure compensation for your injuries if the explosion was caused by a product defect, such as: faulty lid seal; automatic shut-off failure; venting problems; defective gaskets; and/or defective lid. If one of these defects caused your injuries, you may be eligible to file a pressure cooker explosion lawsuit. In order to find out what caused the malfunction, your attorney will call on an engineering expert. They’ll be able to analyze the appliance and assess any defects.
