What Are the Different Types of Product Liability Cases?

There are three types of product liability cases, including:

  • Negligence
  • Strict liability
  • And breach of warranty

For negligence cases, you must show that your injury was the result of carelessness. Companies are obligated to prevent injuries caused by their products.

We also need to show that the manufacturer or distributor breached their duty to produce safe products. Strict liability cases require that your attorney proves that the product was unreasonably dangerous due to a defect in design or manufacturing to establish that the defendant is liable for your injury.

How To Prove the Product Defect Caused Your Injury

In order for your case to be successful, your attorney must show that you have been injured and prove that a defect in the product is responsible for your injury. It isn’t enough to show that the product has a defect. You must also show that you sustained an injury that was caused by a defect in the product.

The three types of defects include:

  • A manufacturing defect where the product was designed well, but the defect was caused by the manufacturer
  • A design defect where the design of the product is unsafe
  • The product has no defects, but the instructions or warnings are insufficient

The Slusser Law Firm Is Here to Help

Product liability cases can be complex, so it is important to hire a lawyer with experience handling defective product cases. These cases often settle before trial, but they can be difficult to pursue in court since manufacturers fight to avoid having their products branded as dangerous. Our product liability attorneys in Luzerne County can evaluate your case and work to protect your rights and best interests.

Please contact us at (570) 405-9953 or by filling out our online contact form to determine if you have a product liability case worth pursuing.

  • “A trusted lawyer who is always there.”

    I have been nothing but completely satisfied and impressed with Chris and his staff at the Slusser Law Firm for years. I have the privilege of working with them on Professional level as a Chairman of a sewer authority who was left with a bad taste in my mouth for lawyers because of our past solicitor who truly was not cost effective and responsible to fact that we as an authority needed to be mindful of our spending in order to keep our rates down for our elderly population of rate payers.

    I interviewed many possible candidates to replace said solicitor and Chris by far stood out to me because of his professionalism and understanding to what we needed and our demographics as an area made up of elderly rate payers living on fixed incomes. I am pleased to say it was one of the best moves we made and pleased to say we as an Authority are going on 8 plus years with Chris and his team guiding us legally and look forward to many more years working with them.

    On a personal level I have now a trusted lawyer who is always there to give guidance in buying property or contract review and Is trusted so much I referred my Father to him for guidance after my Mother passed.

  • “Many friends suggested I contact the Slusser Law Firm. I am glad I did.”

    When I was injured in a motorcycle accident while driving through a construction zone, many friends suggested I contact the Slusser Law Firm. I am glad I did. Attorneys Chris Slusser and John Solt came to visit me in the hospital. The Slusser Law Firm filed suit on my behalf.

    Through the long recovery and rehabilitation process Attorneys Slusser and Solt and the team investigated, hired experts, took depositions and kept me informed of everything along the way. In the end, they secured me a cash settlement that has helped transform my life. Thank you to everyone at the firm for all your tireless work and for believing in my case.
