Types Of Product Liability Claims

There are three main types of legal theories that make up product liability claims:

• Manufacturing defect cases where the product is designed well, but the way in which it was constructed makes it unsafe. For instance, if a toy wagon was assembled without a bolt that kept one of the wheels on
• Design defect cases where the design of the product is unsafe, so the entire product line is unreasonably dangerous. Design defects also apply to the way a product is packaged. For example, a car seat that does not properly secure the child into the seat
• Insufficient instructions or warnings where the manufacturer designs a product that has no foreseeable flaws, but then fails to include proper warnings or instructions for safe operation. For example, prescription drugs that do not list certain side effects
