Products liability law protects consumers from defects in either the design or the manufacturing of goods and products. Designers and manufacturers of products and consumer goods have an absolute obligation to create and make a product that is safe and does not create an unreasonable risk of injury or death when used in a foreseeable manner. These cases run the gamut from defective tires and air bags to defective farm equipment to defective car seats for children. Product liability claims may be based on theories of negligence, strict liability and/or breach of warranty. Preservation of the product is critical to a successful resolution of these claims and legal counsel should be consulted as soon as possible after an event that results in injury or death.
