Product Liability – Consumer Law requires product manufacturers to put their products through extensive testing and trials before making them available to the public. This is to prevent anyone from suffering an accident or injury when a poorly-made product malfunctions. Vendors and retailers must also do their part to protect consumers. Requirements include:
Any individual who suffers personal injury because a manufacturer or vendor was negligent in these duties deserves to receive compensation. Recovering the highest amount of compensation for a defective product injury requires victims must prove the following:
However, manufacturers and retailers often attempt to deny liability. They may claim that the product was not under warranty. In fact, they frequently assert the accident was caused by the victim’s recklessness or misuse of the product. These companies have extensive resources and will likely hire skilled defense should you file a claim.

Every year poorly designed, built or maintained products and machinery seriously injure or kill innocent victims. In addition, injuries and deaths occur from a failure to warn users of dangerous conditions caused by machinery or products. Consequently, liability claims against manufacturers and retailers of defective products start with extensive research. The research includes a review of all industry standards and laws of federal and state governments. The “discovery” phase of litigation – the legal process which forces defendants to produce information specific to the product – can be extensive. Expert witnesses are an essential part of a product liability case.
