When you make a purchase, you place your trust in a product, its manufacturer, and its distributor. You do so with the understanding that it has undergone meticulous design, thorough vetting, safe packaging, and legal sales processes. Rightfully, you expect it to fulfill its intended purpose without causing harm. However, the unfortunate reality is that individuals are injured by defective products every single day, even when they follow the manufacturer’s instructions diligently.

What Is Product Liability?

In the simplest terms, product liability refers to the legal responsibility that a product designer, manufacturer, or distributor may have if a product they sell causes harm to a consumer. This area of law is based on the principle that consumers have a right to safety when using products. If a product is defective in some way and causes injury, the party responsible for that defect could be held liable for any associated expenses. 

Product liability can take several forms. It may arise from design defects, where a flaw in the product’s design makes it unsafe. Manufacturing defects, on the other hand, occur during the product’s creation, making the final product different from its intended design. Finally, a product could be flawed due to inadequate warnings or instructions.

It’s important to remember that product liability law can be complex, and each case is unique. The circumstances of your situation will significantly influence the potential outcomes, so we encourage you to reach out to our team if you suspect that you have a case. One of our 

Examples of Product Liability Cases

Product liability cases can encompass a wide range of scenarios, each with its distinct circumstances and legal considerations. 

For instance, a case may involve a children’s toy with a choking hazard unmentioned in the product’s warning label. Alternatively, it could be a situation involving a kitchen appliance that, due to a manufacturing defect, causes a house fire.

Medical devices and pharmaceuticals are also often the subject of product liability cases. For example, a hip implant with a design flaw that results in premature failure and creates a need for additional surgeries can be subject to legal scrutiny. 

Automotive defects, too, come under product liability litigation. A vehicle’s malfunctioning braking system or a faulty airbag not deploying in an accident can result in severe injury or even loss of life.

In each of these cases, the common thread is a product that, due to a design, manufacturing, or marketing defect, results in injury.
