Top Miami Firm Highlights Rise in Amazon-Related Injury Claims

MIAMI, Aug. 31, 2025 - The Law Offices of Jason Turchin, a national product liability and personal injury firm based in South Florida, today reported a marked increase in claims arising from defective products purchased on Amazon.

Many consumers injured by third-party items sold through the online retail giant may still have legal recourse, the firm emphasized. “Even when products come from overseas sellers, injured parties often have valid claims against Amazon for facilitating the sale and distribution,” said Jason Turchin, Esq.

According to the firm, the most common categories of Amazon-related injury claims in the Miami area include:

Product Type	Typical Hazard
Kitchen appliances (pressure cookers, air fryers)	Explosions, scalding burns
Electric scooters and e-bikes	Battery fires, sudden mechanical failures
Battery-powered devices	Overheating or combustion
Children’s toys	Choking hazards, toxic materials
Home goods (heaters, electronics, furniture)	Electrical malfunctions, tip-over injuries

Injured consumers are advised to take these steps immediately after an accident:

Seek prompt medical treatment and document all injuries.
Preserve the defective item, its packaging, instructions, and purchase receipts.
Photograph the product, packaging, and any related damage or injuries.
Report the incident to Amazon via the customer’s order history page.
Consult a qualified product liability attorney to assess legal options.

The firm’s call to action underscores the complex liability issues that arise when online marketplaces host third-party sellers. “Don’t assume you’re without options simply because the seller isn’t a household name,” Turchin added.
