What is Product Liability?

Product liability is the legal principle that allows manufacturers and sellers to be held responsible for defective products that they put in the market. Manufacturers and sellers owe a duty to consumers to ensure that the products in the market do not cause harm to them. A consumer can suffer harm because of a defectively manufactured product or a deceptively marketed product. When manufacturers and sellers fail to uphold their duty of care to their consumers, they may be held liable for any resulting injuries.

How Can a Lexington Product Liability Attorney Help You?

To make a successful product liability claim, you must prove that:

• The product was used in its original, unaltered, and unmodified condition;
• You did not perform any unauthorized alteration or modification to the product; and
• You exercised ordinary care in the use of the product

You must also prove that the product’s design, methods of manufacture, and testing did not conform to the generally recognized and prevailing standards at the time the product was designed and manufactured. Proving this requires experts who have knowledge in the relevant field of manufacturing and can give testimony about the product’s defective design, manufacture, or distribution. An experienced Lexington product liability attorney has the resources to fully investigate your case and retain experts to develop a compelling case for you. At Dolt, Thompson, Shepherd & Conway, PSC, we have the experience as well as the financial resources to gather the evidence needed to prove your case.
