This article will take you through product liability and what to expect in a case involving defective products.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Product Liability?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Product liability means that a seller or manufacturer will be held responsible by a\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0for supplying defective products to a consumer. The responsibility for a defective product belongs to all the parties who have been involved in distributing the product. According to the law, a product has to meet the expectations of a consumer.\u00a0Personal injury lawyers\u00a0have to show that a product is dangerous or defective, which means that it has not met the expectations of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>There are no federal laws governing product liability, usually, product liability cases are premised upon state laws. A\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0for a product liability case will represent you under the concepts of strict liability, breach of warranty or negligence. Furthermore, each state consists of commercial statutes that have warranty rules that determine product liability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Responsible parties<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the past,\u00a0personal injury lawyers\u00a0had to show a contractual relationship between the consumer who had been injured by the product and the one who supplied the product to recover damages. Today, a\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0representing persons who could have sustained injuries from a defective product may be able to claim damages provided the product has been sold to someone.<\/p>\n<p>Responsibility for a defective product rests with anyone in the supply chain of the product. Therefore, your\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0can make a claim against:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The manufacturer of the product<\/li>\n<li>The manufacturer of parts of the product<\/li>\n<li>The person who installs or assembles the product<\/li>\n<li>The retail store and wholesaler responsible for selling the product<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For a\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0to hold the other party liable, the sale of products has to be made while the supplier is conducting business. Therefore, a person who sells a defective product at a sale for garage parts or accessories cannot be held responsible under product liability law.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Categories of Product Defects<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0personal injury lawyer\u00a0in a case involving product liability should prove that a defective product caused their injuries. There three main kinds of defects include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Design Defects: These are defects that are found in product before manufacture. This means an element in the product is unsafe.<\/li>\n<li>Manufacturing Defects: These are defects t hat occur during the manufacture of a product<\/li>\n<li>Marketing Defects: These are defects in the marketing of a product like insufficient instructions, improper labeling or insufficient safety warnings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Since 1989, the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/clekis.com\/service\/personal-injury\/\">personal injury<\/a>\u00a0lawyers of Clekis Law Firm have been representing injured people and their families in Charleston and throughout the Low Country.
