Product Defects
Each year, thousands of American consumers suffer serious injuries and even death, by dangerous and defective products. Many of these injuries could have been avoided if the manufacturers or distributors of these products took steps to ensure consumer safety.
If you have suffered injuries due to a defective product you may be able to file a claim against the manufacturer to recover damages. You do not necessarily have to prove that the manufacturer was negligent. You may have a claim if you are able to prove:
- The product was defective
- The defect existed prior to the manufacturer releasing the product
- The defect caused your damages
- Manufacturers and their marketers must label the product in such a way as to warn of all dangers associated with its use. The warning must specifically state how that product should be used and warn you of the hazards.
You may have a claim even if you used the product incorrectly if the improper use was foreseeable to the manufacturer.
Some examples of defective products are:
- Cars
- Tires
- Medical devices
- Home appliances
- Pharmaceutical drugs
- Childrens' toys
