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
