Stone Mountain Product Liability Attorney
When you spend your hard-earned cash on a consumer product, you expect the item to serve you well and not to leave you – or anyone else – injured. When injury ensues, it’s only natural to feel betrayed by the manufacturer’s lack of adherence to reasonable safety standards. If you or someone you love has been so injured, it’s time to consult with a dedicated product liability lawyer in Stone Mountain.
The Building Blocks of Product Liability
The fact is that manufacturers are responsible for closely adhering to industry standards related to safety – and this includes each product’s design and manufacture. To bring a successful product liability claim against a manufacturer, you are not required to demonstrate that the company was negligent but must, instead, be able to show that all of the following elements pertain:
- The company manufactured the product that left you injured.
- The product that left you injured was already defective when it left the manufacturer’s possession and control. In other words, it didn’t become defective further along in the marketing chain.
- The product’s defect was the direct cause of your injuries.
Commonly Defective Products
Nearly any product can be defective, but there are some categories of products that commonly malfunction and lead to product liability cases, including:
- Medications
- Children’s toys and clothing
- Cars and other vehicles
- Household appliances
- Household tools
- Cleaning supplies
