Common Causes of Defective Products

Defective products can stem from a variety of issues during the design, manufacturing, or marketing stages. Some of the most common causes include:

Design Defects: Products that are inherently unsafe due to flaws in their design can cause harm even when used as intended. Examples include unstable furniture prone to tipping, vehicles with faulty brake systems, or toys with small detachable parts posing choking hazards.
Manufacturing Defects: Errors during the production process can render an otherwise well-designed product dangerous. Examples include contaminated food, improperly assembled machinery, or pharmaceutical drugs with incorrect dosages.
Marketing Defects: Also referred to as "failure to warn," marketing defects arise when a product lacks proper instructions, warnings, or labels about potential risks. For instance, if a medication lacks warnings about side effects, users may unknowingly expose themselves to harm.

Common Injuries in Product Liability Accidents

Defective products can cause a wide spectrum of injuries, some of which are life-altering. Examples include the following:

Burns: Faulty electronics, flammable fabrics, or defective household appliances can lead to serious burns.
Lacerations: Sharp edges on improperly manufactured tools or appliances may result in deep cuts or amputations.
Fractures and Crush Injuries: Heavy machinery, defective vehicles, or unsafe industrial equipment may cause broken bones or crushed limbs.
Poisoning: Contaminated food or hazardous chemicals in household products can lead to serious illnesses.
Neurological Injuries: Exposure to toxic substances or defective medical devices can lead to brain injuries or nerve damage.

What Damages Could Be Recovered in a Product Liability Claim?

A successful product liability claim can help victims recover a variety of damages to ease their financial burdens and compensate for their suffering. These could include:

Economic Damages

These damages cover tangible financial losses, including:

Medical Expenses: Costs associated with surgeries, hospital stays, rehabilitation, medication, and ongoing care.
Lost Wages: Compensation for income lost because of time away from work.
Property Damage: Reimbursement for personal property damaged by the defective product.

Non-Economic Damages

Non-economic damages address the intangible effects of the injury, such as:

Pain and Suffering: Compensation for physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life: Damages for the incapacity to partake in activities you once enjoyed.
Emotional Distress: Compensation for mental anguish, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Punitive Damages

In instances of egregious misconduct or willful negligence by the manufacturer or distributor, punitive damages could be granted to penalize the wrongdoer and prevent similar behavior.
