Grounds for a Product Liability Claim

Product liability is a legal policy that holds businesses responsible for the safety of every consumer good they sell. When they commit errors that lead to defective products, they become liable for any injuries their customers suffer. This means that a person who has been injured by a faulty product has the option of seeking repayment for some of his or her losses from the product’s manufacturer.

If you or a member of your family has been harmed by a defective product, your Iowa product liability attorneys LaMarca Law Group, P.C. can help you construct and present an effective product liability claim. Not only could you have an opportunity to seek repayment for some of your losses; you could also help bring the public’s attention to a dangerously flawed consumer good.

Examples of Product Defects

For your Iowa product liability claim to be successful, you will need to demonstrate that the product in question is defective in some way that makes it unreasonably dangerous. In most cases, this damage will fall into one of these categories:

  • Manufacturing defects: These occur when a product has not been constructed as it should have been. It may have been made with dangerous materials, or it may be unstable due to loose screws or other problems. This category also includes damage that occurred during the packaging and shipping of the product.
  • Design defects: These are problems that exist even when the product is built and used correctly. A product may have a design defect if it is missing important safety features or is inherently unstable. The plaintiff in a design defect case may need to demonstrate that the product could work as well or better with a safer design.
  • Marketing defects: Sometimes a product is reasonably safe when used in a specific way, but consumers are not given enough information about its potential risks. If an item does not provide accurate information about its purposes and potential risks, it may have a marketing defect.

Our Iowa product liability attorneys are highly dedicated to helping victims of negligent businesses. If you have been harmed by a flaw like these, you may be able to win repayment for your medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
