When you purchase a product, you trust that it is safe and free from defects. Unfortunately, not all products meet the required safety standards, and sometimes, dangerous products make their way to market.

Holding Manufacturers Accountable

If you or a loved one has been injured by a defective product, a product liability lawyer can help you pursue justice and compensation for your damages.

What is Product Liability?

Product liability refers to the legal obligation of manufacturers, distributors, and sellers to ensure their products are safe for consumer use. If a product is defective and causes injury or harm, the responsible parties can be held liable for damages. Product liability claims can arise from a variety of issues, including design defects, manufacturing defects, and failure to provide adequate warnings or instructions.

There are three main types of product defects that can lead to liability:

  • Design Defects: These occur when the design of the product is inherently dangerous or flawed, making it unsafe for use. For example, a car with a design flaw that makes it prone to tipping over in a rollover accident could be considered defective.

  • Manufacturing Defects: These occur during the production process when a product is made incorrectly or with substandard materials. A common example is a batch of faulty electrical cords that pose a fire hazard.

  • Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn): If a product lacks adequate instructions, warnings, or safety labels, consumers may not be properly informed about the risks associated with using the product. For example, a pharmaceutical company may be held liable if it fails to include warnings about the side effects of a drug.

Common Types of Product Liability

Product liability cases can involve a wide range of products, including:

  • Defective Vehicles: Cars, trucks, and motorcycles with faulty parts or designs that lead to accidents, such as defective airbags, brakes, or fuel systems.

  • Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices: Drugs or medical devices that cause harm due to defects, lack of warnings, or inadequate testing. For example, a faulty hip implant or a drug with dangerous side effects.

  • Household Products: Common household items, like appliances, furniture, or cleaning products, can be dangerous if they have design flaws or manufacturing defects. For example, a defective toaster that causes fires or a children’s toy with small parts that pose a choking hazard.

  • Industrial Equipment: Heavy machinery or construction tools that are defectively designed or manufactured, leading to serious injuries on the job.

  • Food and Beverage: Contaminated food or beverages, such as those with harmful bacteria, foreign objects, or allergens that cause illness or injury.
