Legal Grounds for Product Liability in CT & MA

In both Connecticut and Massachusetts, product liability claims can be based on several legal theories:

1. Negligence: The manufacturer failed to use reasonable care in designing or producing the product.

2. Strict Liability: The product was defective and unreasonably dangerous, even if the manufacturer was not negligent.

3. Breach of Warranty: The product did not meet the safety or performance promises made by the seller or manufacturer.

4. Failure to Warn: The company failed to provide adequate safety instructions or warnings.

Both CT and MA have strict consumer protection laws, and our lawyers know how to use them to your advantage.
