Products used by consumers are trusted to be safe and harmless. Too often, however, product manufacturers and company owners make mistakes during production that injure people of all ages. Some products may contain harmful chemicals that injure toddlers, while others may break during a moment's notice. The effects of defective and harmful products are on the rise, as the Consumer Product Safety Commission reports 235,300 toy-related injuries require hospital treatment each year. Injuries sustained as a result of defective products also include broken bones, bruising, spinal injuries, and even death.

Different products can be attributed to these injuries:

• Baby products
• Clothing
• Contaminated foods
• Defective automobiles or parts
• Electronics
• Household appliances or furniture
• Medications
• Toys

Product Liability Law

The three different types of product liability law hold product manufacturers and owners liable. They ensure the enforcement of laws requiring product owners to create a safe product. The three different types are flawed product design, manufacturing error, and marketing defects. If you are injured by a product, then you have the right to compensation and recovering of your losses. Defective products can create terrible consequences for you and your family, accumulating high medical costs that may continue long-term.
