Defective or Dangerous Products - Product Liability
Manufacturers and their agents are obligated to provide consumers with products that are safe when used in a reasonable manner. Manufacturers are also obligated to market their product responsibly. This is interpreted to mean that although a product may be safe if used for a specific purpose, it could be hazardous, or even deadly, if used incorrectly or under different circumstances. The product must include clear, visible and concise warnings outlining any dangers and their consequences.
Claims for product liability can be brought against the manufacturer of a defective or dangerous product if three things can be established: The product was defective; the defect existed prior to the manufacturer releasing the product; and that the defect caused your damages or injuries.
If you have been injured due to a defective product, there are some important things you need to remember:
- Seek medical attention immediately.
- Keep the product and anything related to it, such as packaging, instructions, receipts, etc.
- Take photographs of the product and the accident scene.
- Verify that you were using the product in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
- Protect your legal rights.
To protect your legal rights following severe injury or wrongful death resulting from an accident involving a defective or dangerous product, it is wise to immediately consult an experienced product liability law firm.
