Miami Products Liability Lawyer
Defective Product Attorney Coral Gables, FL
Companies have a duty to design, make and distribute a product that is reasonably safe for its intended use. Unfortunately, each year a number of Floridians are injured due to defective and dangerous products. These are products that despite being used in the manner intended by the maker or seller, still prove harmful to consumers who purchase and use them.
Fortunately, the parties responsible for injuries caused by such products can be held accountable under products liability laws. A law suit against parties involved in the manufacturing and supply chain of a defective product is known as a products liability case. Possible defendants may include manufacturers, testing labs, distributors, retailers, assemblers, component suppliers, or repairmen.
The main types of liability in a products liability case are: negligence, strict liability, warranty breach, and fraud.
- Negligence Cases: failure to warn, marketing/advertising defects, negligent product design, negligent product manufacture, failure to test or inspect product, negligent failure to provide safety devices, breach of consumer protection laws
- Strict Liability Cases: Design Defects, Manufacturing Defects
