Potential Defective Product Injuries

Some of the injuries that are possible due to any of the above products that were manufactured poorly include brain injuries, back injuries, ligament sprains, muscle strains, accidental strangulation, burns, wrongful death, amputation, spinal cord injuries, comas, tragic accidents, broken bones, and head injuries. If you have been injured by a negligently manufactured product, you are entitled to deserve medical treatment and compensation for your injuries.

Negligent Liability for Defective Product Cases

To prove negligence for a product liability case, we will need to look into the duty of care, the standard of care, and causation. Instances of negligence include failing to provide accurate warning labels, giving misleading professional advice, or failing to thoroughly test a product to determine its safety. Standard of care is defined as the amount of care a reasonable person would exercise in a given situation. By law, manufacturers are required to operate above that standard at all times during testing, manufacturing, and marketing.

What is Strict Liability?

Strict liability is the idea that even if someone didn’t behave improperly or negligently, that they are still held responsible for any damage caused. Strict liability is usually found in situations dealing with inherently dangerous factors, such as violent animals or crews that demolish buildings and blast rock.  These are situations where the law has decided that even though no harm was intended, the owner or product maker is still at fault.
