Product liability law is based on the responsibility of a manufacturer or other provider of goods to compensate users of the goods for injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. Product liability cases usually require preservation of the defective product. There are generally three types of product liability cases: negligence, strict liability, and breach of warranty. Pursuing a product liability case is complex and expensive.
Federal and state laws provide protection to consumers who purchase goods which prove to be unsafe. All products sold to consumers have what is known as an implied warranty of merchantability. This means that if a product is purchased for a particular purpose, it must be able to do what it was intended to do safely and without causing injury. Because a manufacturer of a product is usually the one most able to reduce or eliminate the hazards created by their products, the law requires them to act responsibly and ethically in designing and manufacturing all products that are sold to the public. Every manufacturer is legally and financially responsible for injuries caused by their unsafe products.
