Defective products give rise to products liability, which is the term used to describe a situation in which personal injury or property damage resulted from a faulty product. Under the law, defective product manufacturers and sellers are held liable for any injury caused by the unreasonable danger they have caused. The products liability area of the law, allows for the recovery of damages that may be caused by a defective product. In determining fault, it is necessary to understand the design of the product, as well as how it was created, made and marketed, so that it can be determined where in the chain of liability the defect actually occurred.

In general, there are two kinds of defective products: those that have been improperly manufactured and those that have flawed designs. The defect in a product design occurs when the manufacturing process that is utilized by a company is faulty, thereby resulting to a product that is potentially hazardous. With the defect in the design, every product that comes off the assembly line of the company will have the same imperfection. A manufacturing defect on the other hand happens if a product is not manufactured according to its design. Although there might be nothing wrong with the general design of the product, there may be a flaw in its assembly. Manufacturing defect is not typically common to every product that comes off the assembly line of the manufacturer. Usually there are only a few products that are defective.

There are times when the defect is not on the product itself. Thus, there are defective products that have defective warnings, improper labeling and insufficient instructions. Hazardous products should have warning labels that details their suitable use, the conditions that can be dangerous and the steps that must be done if there is an emergency. Correct labeling also applies to claims that are printed in product displays, advertisements and sales materials. If there is a failure to meet the requirements and it resulted to an accident to a user, a products liability case may be made by the victim to recover compensations for his injuries.

In a defective products lawsuit, you should be able to prove the defect in a product. A defect is defined as the fault that makes the product hazardous for its reasonably anticipated or intended uses. In court, manufacturers have their own specialized lawyers who take care of product liability cases constantly. This gives them an advantage if you are going to pick an average lawyer who is not familiar with products liability. You should then be able to pick an attorney who has the skill and experience in handling defective products and will defend your rights against the manufacturers and their legal teams with dedication.
