Product liability law covers injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. You may have a claim based on design defects, manufacturing flaws, or marketing defects such as inadequate warnings.
A successful claim often requires proof of defect, causation, and damages, as well as adherence to California deadlines and procedural rules.
Product liability is the legal responsibility of manufacturers, distributors, and sellers for injuries caused by defective products. Claims can be based on design flaws, manufacturing errors, or failure to warn.
Elements typically include the existence of a defective product, the product reaching you in a defective condition, causation of your injury, and damages. The process involves discovery, evidence gathering, and negotiation or court action to pursue compensation.
Common terms used in product liability cases are defined here to help you understand the claims and legal options.
A warranty is a promise about a product’s quality or performance. Warranties can be express or implied and may affect your rights in a claim.
Strict liability means a manufacturer can be responsible for injuries caused by a defective product regardless of fault, making it easier to pursue a claim in many cases.
A manufacturing defect occurs when a product differs from its intended design and is unreasonably dangerous to users.
A design defect exists when the product’s overall design makes it unreasonably dangerous, even if manufactured correctly.
Different paths are possible after an injury from a defective product, including settlements, applications for compensation, or filing a lawsuit. We explain potential outcomes and timelines for each option.
