Product liability is a legal claim against manufacturers and sellers for injuries caused by defective products. Claims can be based on design defects, manufacturing flaws, or improper warnings. In many cases, you may pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other losses related to the injury.

Many product liability claims operate under strict liability, meaning you may not have to prove negligence. Some theories still involve negligence depending on the claim type and theories pursued.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, as well as future medical costs and rehabilitation expenses related to the injury.
