Information on Product Liability Laws
Product liability law is an area of law that provides for compensation when someone is injured by a defective product. Generally, a personal injury lawyer has to prove the product was unreasonably dangerous, was negligently designed, negligently manufactured, or did not have proper warnings.
- Defective products can come in many types
- Defective industrial machines, consumer products like automobiles and toys
- Defective medical devices
- Defective drugs
Even if the operator of the device was negligent, the manufacturer may still bear some of the responsibility. Manufacturers have the duty to foresee reasonable misuses of a product and design it to be safe when it is misused.
