A defective product injury claim arises when a dangerous product causes harm because of a design flaw, a manufacturing error, or inadequate labeling.
We guide you through liability concepts, timelines, and the steps needed to pursue compensation.
Defective product injuries occur when a product is unreasonably dangerous due to its design, manufacturing process, or safety warnings. A claim can include medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
An effective claim requires investigation of the product, gathering medical records, securing testing or engineering assessments, and negotiating with manufacturers or pursuing litigation when needed.
A glossary of common terms used in defective product injury claims.
A manufacturing defect happens when a product, though designed correctly, is produced in a way that makes it dangerous to use.
A design defect exists when the product’s design makes it inherently unsafe, even if produced correctly.
Failure to warn means inadequate or missing safety instructions or labels that would have prevented harm.
Under strict liability, a manufacturer may be responsible for a defective product regardless of fault, so long as the product was sold in a defective condition.
