Cause of Defective Products
Defectively manufactured
Defectively manufactured are an error in assembly and are not an intended part of the defective product. Many times only a limited number of items are affected in the product. The manufacturer may be liable for any defects occurring as a result of faulty construction.
Defectively designed
Defectively designed are flaws in the original design of the product that affects all products manufactured. A manufacturer’s warnings or instructions of potential danger or risk. Missing warning labels that should make the consumer aware of potential risks of injury.
The manufacturer, wholesaler and/or retailer can be held liable for a defective product injury.
As a general principle, you want to include any and all parties involved in the chain of distribution (the path that the product takes from manufacture to distribution to the customers) of the injury-causing product.
In a successful product liability claim we want to prove the plaintiff was injured or suffered losses by a defective product, the defect was the actual cause of the injury and the product was being used as intended.
