PRODUCT LIABILITY

When a product is not fit for its intended use, fails to warn consumers about potential hazards, or malfunctions as a result of a defect or design flaw, those responsible for its creation can be held accountable for any damage it causes. This may include manufacturers, designers, distributors, and suppliers. If you or a loved one has been injured by a dangerous product, you should know that you have rights.

If you were injured while using a product, you must be able to prove that it is defective or otherwise dangerous. In order to do so, you must establish that it was either defectively designed, defectively manufactured, or defectively marketed.

• Defective Design: When a product’s design is inherently dangerous, a defect exists even before the manufacturing process begins. This means that, regardless of how carefully a product is manufactured, it will not be safe for you to use.
• Defective Manufacturing: Manufacturing defects occur when a product is being assembled or constructed. This typically involves the use of low-quality materials or poor workmanship, and may only affect a few batches of the product.
• Defective Marketing: Even if a product is safely designed and manufactured, it is still necessary for the maker to warn consumers about potential dangers. If adequate instructions or warnings are not provided, this is a defect.

In order to file a successful product liability lawsuit, you will need to establish several different facts—also known as the “elements” of your claim. Unfortunately, simply showing that you were injured won’t be enough to win your case.

When filing a product liability claim, you must be able to prove that:

• You have suffered actual injuries, harm, or losses
• The product that injured you is dangerous or defective
• Your injuries were caused by the defective product
• You were using the product as it was intended
