Wodndering if I should contact a lawyer about a product I bought? -

I bought 1 of those self heating coffee s in a can. after opening it, I went to take a sip and I got a mouthful of chemicals. Then when I set it down, it starting smoking and got so hot I couldn t hold it. I am wondering if I should contact a lawyer, in case there is some effect with the chemicals I swallowed.

Did you read the instructions? Try going to a Doctor first and then call the company first to get information on the product secondly before you get all lawyer happy.

Does the can have a warning label on it...... warning of any of these dangers? You may be out of luck if it does. If you wanted to contact a lawyer about the subject you could but be careful.... Some will take the case not because they think they will win they just want your money. There should be lawyers that give free consultations. Also some lawyers will not take the case if the product is from a big company...... Big companies have big lawyers and cost to much to fight. Big companies can drag the case on costing you so much you give up. If they did settle... The money you get would all go to pay your lawyer. Also you would need to prove you have damages....

I would try to research it more, so you can see what it contains and what the chemicals were that you drank. Also go to the local doctors and have him check you out first. Then if you can prove that it was very harmful to you I would definitely get a lawyer. I hope that the chemicals didn t do anything to you, and good luck!

Find their web site and make a major complaint. NEVER BUY IT AGAIN. But save it for evidence should you need it.

It couldn t hurt. . .

just phone one and see what they say....

Go to the doctor first. Tell them what happened and get tested. If anything is wrong, then contact a lawyer.

don′t hurt to call and find out :) look at all those fat people who sued McDonald s and won millions of dollars, and how about the woman who sued McDonald s for the hot coffee she ordered and spilled on her lap, she got a million for it...could not hurt to ask ;) you could be a million air...you won′t know unless you ask.

As for the hot part, you can t have any legal action against that because I m pretty sure that on the container somewhere it says quot;CAUTION: HOT.quot; As for the chemical problem, contacting someone about it (whether it be the company s customer service or even a lawyer), it is still a reasonable issue to complain about.
