Was a Defective Product to Blame for My Injury? 🎁💥
Every year, thousands of people are injured by products that are dangerous or defective. These can range from faulty car parts to dangerous children's toys or defective medical devices. Product liability law holds manufacturers, distributors, and retailers responsible for putting unsafe products on the market. In these cases, you don't always have to prove negligence; you only have to show that the product was defective and that the defect caused your injury. There are three types of defects: design defects, manufacturing defects, and a failure to warn of potential dangers. According to Lex Machina, product liability lawsuits have been on the rise. A lawyer can help you determine if a defective product was the cause of your injury and identify all responsible parties in the chain of distribution.
