Types of liabilities

No product liability case should be decided by an insurance company

A manufacturer is obligated to warn the public about the product's inherent dangers, particularly those that are not obvious for the ordinary consumer to recognize. In other cases, a product may have an obviously unsafe design. However, the unsafe design is not recorded in the product's warning labels or instructions.

The simplest way to categorize product liability cases is:

1) Insufficient Warning

Product functions safely but instructions and/or packaging do not clearly describe proper usage.

2) Manufacturing Defect

Product functions safely as designed but one unit or batch was not assembled correctly, leading to a safety risk.

3) Design Defect

Product is not designed, assembled, or packaged properly to enable a consumer to use it safely.
