Who is responsible for injuries from a defective product?
You might be thinking that only the manufacturer of a defective or dangerous product is responsible for injuries from a defective product, but you’d be surprised to learn that there are many other potential defendants. These possible defendants could include the manufacturers, any subcontractors or part manufacturers, distributors, and/or retailers.
This means that if you purchased a dangerous or defective product from say Walmart, then Walmart would be an additional potential defendant to your case.
Negligence
Many times, the manufacturers or sellers of a dangerous or defective product are not aware of the danger until after someone is injured. There can be multiple ways that a product manufacturer, retailer, and/or distributor can be found liable. These include:
- Defective Instructions
- Defective Design
- Defective Manufacturing
Sometimes, proving that a product was defectively designed or manufactured, can be difficult. You’ll want to hire an experienced Queen Creek product liability lawyer to help you with your claim. Typically, you’ll need to hire an engineer of some sort to act as an expert witness to prove
Causation
Sometimes, proving causation is the most difficult aspect of a product liability case. Causation simply means ‘did the product cause your injuries?’ This can be especially difficult if you’ve been injured by medication or chemicals. For example, if you believe that a certain medication caused you to develop cancer, it can be difficult to show that the medication in question was the actual cause. Cancer is complicated, and can be caused by any number of different products or chemicals. Again, this is where hiring an experienced attorney will be your best option.
