Products liability action
When filing a products liability claim, it is important to understand cause so liability can be established. Most often, a defective product is a result of improper manufacturing of the product, negligent product design or inadequate warnings or instructions.
Often, products are rushed into the market, causing shortened timelines when it comes to design, manufacturing and testing. Thus, there could be several variables to a defective product causing harm to a consumer. As such, several parties could be liable for the harm caused.
Those harmed by a defective or dangerous product have the right to file a products liability action. If you are unsure if this is the right process for you or do not understand what steps to take, a legal professional can help you get the answer to these and other questions you might have.
