A defective product injury occurs when a consumer item is unsafe due to a flaw and results in injury or illness for the user.
Key elements include gathering evidence, testing the product when possible, identifying liable parties such as manufacturers and retailers, and pursuing appropriate compensation for your losses.
Common terms used in product liability include design defect, manufacturing defect, failure to warn, and strict liability.
A design defect exists when the product is unsafe by its intended design and could have been safer with a different design.
A manufacturing defect is a flaw that occurs during production and makes a specific item dangerous.
Failure to warn means the product lacks adequate safety information or instructions that could prevent injury.
Under strict liability, manufacturers can be held responsible for injuries caused by defective products even if no fault or negligence is shown.
