Consumer products are required by law to meet the safe, ordinary expectations of their users. If a defective or dangerous product causes harm, willfully or not, you have the right to seek damages as compensation for medical bills, long-term healthcare and lost wages.
Certain laws exist to eliminate harm and provide compensation for damages or injuries due to a defective product. There are three main categories designated for defective products, which may result in product liability claims. They are the following:
Product liability is the liability of anyone with a responsibility for a product that causes injury or damage due to a defect, from the supplier or manufacturer to the seller or retailer. As a rule, liability claims are based on negligence, breach of warranty, or strict liability.
