What is Product Liability?

Product liability law concerns the legal responsibility of manufacturers and retailers to ensure they do not distribute defective or dangerous products to consumers. 

In the United States, companies have a duty to ensure they produce a safe product. California, for example, may hold a liable party accountable based on what’s called strict liability law, which does not require the victim to prove negligence. In Arizona, on the other hand, a product liability suit may be based on strict liability or negligence, depending on the specifics of your circumstances. Check your local laws for further guidance on how your state handles product liability. 

When an unsafe product results in physical or financial injury to the consumer, the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer can be found liable for damages.  

A product liability claim may arise from a number of factors. These include but are not limited to:   

• Design Defects: When the product in question’s design is inherently flawed, it may be dangerous to use even under ideal circumstances. 
• Manufacturing Defects: These defects may occur during the production process, resulting in a faulty product that deviates from its design. 
• Failure to Warn: If a product lacks appropriate warnings or instructions, manufacturers may be liable if consumers are injured due to a lack of adequate information. 
• Misleading Marketing: If a product’s capabilities or intended uses are misrepresented by false advertising, the responsible parties may be found accountable. 
• Breach of Warranty: When a product fails to meet expectations laid out in its warranty agreement, negatively affected consumers may have grounds for a product liability claim.   

If you or a loved one has been injured due to a defective product, it may be in your best interest to contact a product liability attorney who can investigate the situation and put you on the path to financial recovery.
