Three Types of Product Liability

In product liability law, you generally don't need to prove that the manufacturer was "careless," only that the product was unreasonably dangerous. There are three main categories of defects:

Design Defects

The product's design is inherently dangerous, even when manufactured correctly (e.g., an SUV prone to rolling over).

Manufacturing Defects

An error occurred during assembly, making a specific batch dangerous (e.g., contaminated medicine).

Failure to Warn

Marketing defects where the product lacks adequate instructions or safety warnings (e.g., drug side effects).

Common Dangerous Products

Auto Parts

Airbags, brakes, tires, seatbelts.

Children's Products

Sleepers, car seats, toys with lead.

Electronics

Exploding batteries, faulty wiring.

Chemicals

Pesticides, cleaning agents without labels.

Tip: Keep the defective product! It is the most critical piece of evidence in your case. Do not repair or throw it away.

Estimated Settlement Values

Compensation in product liability cases covers medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and punitive damages for gross negligence.

Minor Injury

$5,000 - $50,000

Lacerations, burns requiring outpatient care, or property damage claims.

Serious Injury

Severe

$100,000 - $500,000

Broken bones, severe burns, loss of vision/hearing, or surgery required.

Catastrophic

$1 Million - $10 Million+

Permanent disability, brain injury, amputation, or wrongful death.
