I hired Gerling Law a few weeks after my car accident. Over the course of 2 years, I got to work with two attorneys on my case. Neal Anderson recently wrapped up my case and I couldn’t have been any more satisfied. If you need representation for an injury, I definitely recommend Gerling Law. - Perry C.

Who Qualifies for the Lawsuit?

Before going into the requirements for a product liability lawsuit, we need to address the first question: whether the specific CPAP machine you used is one of the affected products. If not, you may not have a claim. Luckily, it’s easy to look up. Phillips has set up a portal where you can look up and register your machine’s serial number to see whether your device is subject to the recall order.

If your device is one of those affected, go through the following requirements to make an educated guess as to whether you have a valid claim. Generally, for product liability, a claimant must show just two things:

  • The existence of damages; and
  • A causal relationship between the product in question and the ensuing damages.

Unlike in other types of personal injury claims, the question is not whether the manufacturer exercised due care in the design and manufacture of the product. Even a company that uses the highest standard of care can be held responsible if their product causes damage. This concept is known as “strict liability” because an accident victim does not have to prove negligence to receive compensation.

If you developed lung damage or another respiratory health problem after using a recalled Phillips CPAP machine, you may be able to recover compensation from Phillips.
