Product liability is the area of the law that governs people being harmed by defective or dangerous products. Manufacturers, sellers, retailers, distributors, suppliers, and/or any others who make the product available to the public are obligated to make a product available that is reasonably safe. When those products are proven to be unsafe, a claim can be opened against those who put an unsafe product out for consumers to use.
Product liability cases are notoriously complex. It is a vast area of law and can include almost any type of tangible product.

Overall, there are 3 ways a company or individual can be held responsible for a dangerous product that was available to consumers.
If you believe the product that led to your injuries was defectively designed, you will need to show that the product is inherently dangerous when it is manufactured and used as intended. It is not that there was a fluke in the creation of the product. Instead, the defect arose during the design phase, and all of the products are made in a way that makes them dangerous for consumers.
When a product has a manufacturing defect, it means it was created or assembled in a way that was not in accordance with the design and made the product dangerous when used as intended. In this situation, the product would not be dangerous if it were manufactured as it was designed. However, a mistake during the manufacturing process created a risk that one or more of the products would cause harm.
A product may have a warning defect if there is a risk of harm when the product is used as intended or in a reasonably foreseeable unintended way, yet it does not have the necessary warnings to inform you or other users about this risk. This is common when a product is designed and manufactured as safely as possible, yet still poses a risk to users.
