Lithium coin batteries (sometimes called button batteries) can be found in thousands of electronics, mainly toys, hearing aids, key fobs, and more. Unfortunately, these small batteries frequently end up being swallowed by children or lodged in little noses or ears. If unsecured lithium coin batteries are swallowed or end up in tight places, they may emit a corrosive substance that can eat through tissues and cause irreparable injuries or death in just a few hours.
If your child was harmed by an unsecured or poorly secured button battery, it’s not your fault. The manufacturers and retailers of the product are more concerned with their bottom lines than they are with your child’s safety, so warning labels or secure compartments for these batteries are often missing. That may mean those companies are at fault for your child’s injuries.

Button batteries pose a danger to small children because they are small and shiny—characteristics known to attract children’s attention. By design, button batteries are also incredibly slim and have points where acid can easily leak out once they come into contact with any kind of moisture, like saliva. The design allows acid to quickly pass through the battery and into your child’s tissues if the battery is swallowed.
Worse, these batteries are often easily ingested without causing choking or coughing. So there may be no sign that your child is in danger until severe symptoms occur.
If the electronic device that contained the button battery your child swallowed had no warning label telling consumers that their product contained a potentially harmful battery, you may be eligible to claim compensation.

While time is of the essence when filing a lawsuit, fighting for justice in these cases can be complicated, and having an attorney who understands their nuances is critical.
That’s why Onder always evaluates cases thoroughly before filing legal claims. First, we’ll gather medical records from you and your healthcare providers. Then, using that documentation, we’ll determine whether your child’s diagnoses meet the criteria required to file a button battery lawsuit.
If the evidence is there, we typically move forward with seeking compensation for your claim.
How can we help you?
Our attorneys fight for those whose children have been injured by button batteries, and we believe that victims may be entitled to significant compensation. The exact amount of compensation you are entitled to depends on factors related to your claim.
You may be entitled to receive damages including
past and future medical bills
loss of enjoyment of life
emotional distress
pain and suffering
property damage
lost wages
lost earning capacity
out-of-pocket expenses
psychological trauma
Individuals entitled to compensation can use the money to pay medical and therapy bills, increase their educational resources, and improve their standard of living.
How can we help you?
We know that deciding to file a lawsuit against a negligent party is a big decision—especially when that negligent party is a global manufacturer.
However, it’s important to remember that a button battery lawsuit is simply a means to recover the financial compensation you need to help your child and your family recover from the physical and emotional trauma they’ve suffered due to button batteries.
Even though a lawsuit can’t change the damage that’s been done, it can do much to ensure that other children and parents don’t have to go through the same ordeal.
When you work with OnderLaw, our best effort goes into enforcing your rights as a consumer. But beyond just getting the financial help you need, you’ll also be helping to hold manufacturers accountable for their negligence.

You pay no upfront fees
for us to represent you
If your child has suffered harm from a button battery injury, the experience can be devastating—and costly. The last thing we want to do is add to your stress by expecting any advance payment.
So we work on a contingency basis. That means there are no upfront costs for our services. In fact, we don’t take our legal fees unless we recover compensation.
If we don’t win, you don’t pay. So you and your family can just focus on moving forward.
OnderLaw strives to make a difference by fighting for ordinary people who were harmed by the negligence of others or by dangerous products, and by holding the big corporations that manufactured these products accountable for their carelessness.
We take on the challenge of fighting those companies not only to make sure clients are compensated for their suffering but to change the way products are made and regulated for the safety of future generations.

See how OnderLaw has helped clients navigate their legal journey.
I have never had any communication issues with them.
For them to have already have met for settlement talks in my case is quite impressive. They are quite thorough and have no problem updating you on your case, just give them a call. Be proactive in your communication with them and patient as they fight for us. I understand concerns regarding the time frame, I often daydream of being financially secure and providing a better life for my family, that day will come. I trust Onder Law.
I’ve had the honor of meeting several of their staff at a social event and my fiance has since signed with them to handle a claim against a company. What alot of these people who have left bad reviews about them fail to realize is that their types of cases don’t get resolved overnight, they have a massive caseload on top of an already delayed court system, and they’re not going to call you just to say they have no update on your case They are going up against billion and trillion dollar companies who have an endless supply of resources. Be patient and let your attorneys do what they do…… THEY WILL WIN FOR YOU AND THEY WILL WIN BIG. They’ve never hidden the fact that the process will be long. But it WILL be worth it.
They are doing the right thing for me and my family.
