Understanding 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 California, companies have a duty to ensure they produce a safe product. 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 an Ontario product liability attorney who can investigate the situation and put you on the path to financial recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is product liability law, and how does it apply in Ontario?

Product liability law holds manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable for injuries caused by defective products. In Ontario, product liability is governed by common law, statutory law (including the Sale of Goods Act, International Sale of Goods Act, and Consumer Protection Act), and tort law.

There are generally three types of defects that can lead to a product liability claim: design defects, manufacturing defects, and marketing defects (failure to provide adequate warnings or instructions). If a product is deemed unsafe due to any of these issues, the injured party may have grounds for a lawsuit. 

A product liability lawyer can investigate the circumstances surrounding your injury, gather evidence to support your claim, and file a lawsuit against the responsible parties. They can also negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf and strive to secure maximum compensation for your losses. 

In Ontario, the limitation period for filing a product liability lawsuit is generally two years from the date of the injury or from when the injury was discovered. It is important to consult with a lawyer as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed within the appropriate timeframe.
