It is essential to immediately secure possession of the product that caused the injury and retain it throughout the case. The sooner an attorney is notified the better, so that the firm can begin to perform a detailed investigation and inspection of the product.

The Product

A List of Health Care Providers
Medical Bills for Treatment of the Injuries
Tax Returns, W-2 Forms and Pay Stubs
