Legal Question in Personal Injury in Wisconsin

Re: faulty crock pot handle

You may have a case, but whether it would be feasible to pursue will depend, in my opinion, upon how bad your injuries are. Your claim would be based upon the theory that the pot was defective. The seller or manufacturer might just be willing to take your word for what happened and might be willing to compensate you for your injuries. If the seller or manufacturer were to contest your contention that the pot was defective, you might have to have the pot analyzed by an expert to determine why the handle broke. That would begin to get expensive. If your injuries are bad enough to warrant pursuing something, you will need documentation of the severity of your injuries. You probably should talk with a lawyer if you want to pursue something, again depending upon how bad your injuries were. The time for pursuing an injury case in Wisconsin is three years from the date of injury.
