Know the Laws that Protect Iowa Consumers from Defective Products
Defective products seriously injure thousands of people every year and even claim the lives of some. If you have been injured by a defective product or if you purchased a product that did not perform as promised, you have rights.
Many consumers do not know their rights or the laws that protect them. It is extremely important that you understand your rights as a consumer and that there are implied warranties, product liability laws, lemon laws, contract and warranty laws, safety rules, and a number of other laws in place to help protect you from bad products and companies.
Do not believe the myth that you have little or no recourse when you are defrauded by a company. You do have rights, and you should pursue an Iowa consumer fraud claim for your damages and losses.
When you are injured by a defective consumer product, you may be able to collect financial compensation for your injuries, medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages and more from one of the following liable parties:
- Manufacturers
- Designers
- Parts maker or engineers
- Reseller
- And more
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the Federal Trade Commission address consumer fraud complaints and support laws protecting consumers from bad companies and products. However, these federal agencies will not pursue a consumer fraud case on your behalf. In order to seek a recovery for your damages due to fraud, you will need to talk with an Iowa consumer fraud attorney who will protect your interests and fight for your recovery.
