Product Liability

Successful San Diego Product Liability Lawyers

A company that designs, manufactures or sells a product may be held legally responsible if someone gets hurt using the product — if the person was using the product for its intended use and did not disregard warnings of potential dangers.

This concept of legal responsibility is known as products liability. Products liability lawsuits arise in a wide variety of contexts, and often gain public notice as a result of product recalls:

• Dangerous consumer products such as children's toys, car parts, appliances or tools
• Dangerous industrial machinery that causes injury due to a faulty design or a manufacturing defect
• Dangerous or defective over-the-counter drugs that are marketed with insufficient warnings of side effects or counterindications
• Dangerous prescription drugs that are marketed or released without adequate research into possible side effects or dangerous interactions with other medications
• Medical devices such as pacemakers, stents or internal defibrillators that have a faulty design or that malfunction after implant
