Product Liability is a growing concern in this world driven marketplace.

Each year, thousands are injured or die from faulty products manufactured both here and abroad, or from the long-term effects of products known to cause health problems. When death or injury occur, it is necessary to hire a Product Liability Attorney. Drug companies, who now advertise to the masses with mega-million dollar advertising campaigns, attach long lists of potential side effects and potential health risks to their products. Sometimes, the lists are longer than the ad copy itself. Why? They are warning you. Warning because that despite the good their product can do, they know bad things could happen to you. They are covering their legal bases and trying to protect themselves from lawsuits.

Product Liability claims are generally based on one of these three issues: negligence, breach of warranty or strict liability. The term “Product Liability” refers to the liability of manufacturers, and any or all parties associated with that chain of manufacture for damages caused by the product they produce. This definition is broad in scope, but the actual liability of manufacturers can scroll down to the minutest detail of a product that causes it to be dangerous. Product liability cases are generally based on three concepts:
- a defect in design
- a defect in the manufacturing process
- the failure to warn of potential for danger.

These concepts assume that the manufacturer has carefully considered the potential and foreseeable dangers inherent in his product’s design. So most claims of Product Liability are not based on negligence, but on a concept called ‘strict liability’. Strict liability theory asserts that a manufacturer can be held responsible whether or not he/she acted negligently, because it presupposes that the well-off manufacturer is in a better position to assume the costs of liability than the victim and the manufacturer builds the cost of such liability into the price of his product. Strict liability theory is rarely applied to anything but manufacturing defect. It rarely includes bad designs or failure to warn. An expert Product Liability Attorney can untangle these issues for you if you feel you’ve been the victim of Product Liability.

“Breech of Warranty” claims in Product Liability can cover a broad range of problems. If, for instance, in advertising or marketing a product, the manufacturer makes claims that are not only untrue, they pose a danger to the user, they can be held in breech of warranty.

Claims of “Failure to Warn” are often considered to be based on negligence. First, manufacturers owe a duty to the consumer to warn of potential problems. If they shirk that duty, then they are negligent. Secondly, if there is an injury and the breech of duty caused that injury, they are negligent. This is why you see little warning labels stuck to electric hair dryers that warn against using near water. The manufacturer can rightly assume that you will be using this dryer in the bathroom (where water is plentiful) and it is their duty to warn you of that potential and foreseeable danger. If they breeched that duty, that would constitute negligence on their part.
