Products Liability Products Liability Products liability law involves injuries resulting from defective products. These are often among the most serious injuries. Products liability cases arise when injuries occur because of a defectively designed, manufactured, repaired, or maintained product. For example, if a company designs automobile airbags which don t inflate properly upon impact, the laws of products liability apply to the injury lawsuits that are filed. The products liability law in your state may have the concept of strict liability.
Strict liability involves the assessment of liability on the basis of the defect itself.
The law permits liability to be assessed against the defendant on proof that the product was defective. If you are injured by a defective product, hold on to the product for dear life. You must have access to the product to have the best chance for success in the lawsuit. If you do not have access to the product, contact a lawyer immediately. Your lawyer can assure that the product is not destroyed.
