El Paso Product Liability Attorneys

Experienced Representation for Victims of Defective Products

Every product must be manufactured in a way that prevents unreasonable or unforeseen danger to consumers. From the parts that go inside an automobile to the pharmaceuticals prescribed to patients, product safety must always be the top priority. When this basic yet crucial responsibility of a product manufacturer is ignored, the results can be catastrophic.

Each year, hundreds of dangerous products are placed on shelves and sold in various markets due to manufacturer fault. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is tasked with vigilantly identifying, reporting, and recalling hazardous products, but they cannot always act before someone gets hurt. If you or a loved one have been injured by a defective or dangerous product of any sort, you might have the right to pursue compensation and damages through a personal injury claim.

Types of Product Defects

Product liability laws are concerned with injuries caused by defective or unreasonably dangerous products. Simply being hurt by a product is not enough to warrant a claim, as someone could intentionally misuse a product and sustain an injury as a result. For your product liability claim to be upheld in court, you must be able to show that you were hurt due to a defect or design outside of your control.

There are three main types of product defects:

• Design defects - Some products are dangerous by design yet end up being sold anyway. Consumers cannot safely use these products without jeopardizing their own wellbeing.
• Production defects - Many products are safely designed but become dangerous due to a manufacturing flaw. Products of this defect category might be completely safe in one incident but hazardous in the next.
• No-instruction defects - Consumers deserve to know how to use a product in order to avoid misuse and possible injury. If ample instructions are not included with a product, it could be considered defective.
