Injury from Defective Products Claims

When a person is injured due to defective goods, the vendor and/or manufacturer may be required to compensate the victim. A product liability claim should be pursued if the product lacked an element necessary to make it safe for its intended use or if the vendor or manufacturer misrepresented the goods or products, caused a breach of warranty, and/or was negligent. Such claims fall under three main categories: design defects, manufacturing defects and failure to warn cases. Products causing injury can include household appliances, automobiles, industrial equipment and airplanes. Liability can arise due to a product's formula, preparation, assembly, installation, testing, warnings, instructions, marketing, packaging, or labeling.

Evolutions in tort law have transformed the nature of certain product liability cases by eliminating entirely the question of negligence. Now, in certain cases, a plaintiff is only required to demonstrate that the product caused an injury due to the defect and the reason for the defect is irrelevant.
