What is Product Liability?

Product liability refers to the legal responsibility of manufacturers, designers, and sellers to ensure that the products they bring to market are safe for consumers to use. When these parties fail in their duty, and a defective product causes injury, victims have the right to seek compensation through a product liability claim.

Here are three main types of product defects can lead to liability:

  • Design Defects: Flaws inherent in a product’s design that make it dangerous, even if manufactured correctly.
  • Manufacturing Defects: Errors during the production or assembly process that render a product unsafe.
  • Marketing Defects: Inadequate instructions, warnings, or labeling that fail to inform users about potential risks.

Common Types of Defective Products

Defective products come in many forms, and they often go unnoticed until harm occurs. Some of the most common categories include:

Auto Parts

Defective auto parts, such as brakes, airbags, tires, or seat belts, can lead to severe accidents and injuries. When a faulty vehicle component causes harm, both the manufacturer and distributor may be held accountable.

Medical Devices

Medical devices like pacemakers, joint replacements, and surgical implants are designed to improve quality of life. However, when these devices fail due to defects, the consequences can be life-threatening.

Pharmaceutical Drugs

Faulty prescription and over-the-counter medications can cause severe side effects or worsen medical conditions. If a drug lacks adequate warnings or has undisclosed risks, victims may have a valid claim.

Household Products

Everyday items like appliances, tools, and electronics can pose significant risks if they are poorly designed or manufactured. Electrical malfunctions, fire hazards, or structural failures can lead to injuries or property damage.

Children’s Products

Products designed for children, such as toys, car seats, and cribs, should meet the highest safety standards. Defective children’s products can lead to choking, injuries, or worse, making this category particularly alarming.

At Bertoldo Carter Smith & Cullen, we have successfully represented clients injured by these and other types of defective products. If you believe a product defect caused your injuries, we’re here to help.

Strict Liability in Nevada

Nevada follows a strict liability rule for product liability claims. This means that you do not need to prove negligence on the part of the manufacturer, designer, or seller to succeed in your claim. Instead, you must demonstrate the following:

  1. The product was defective.
  2. The defect existed when the product left the defendant’s possession.
  3. The defect directly caused your injury or damages.

This standard makes it easier for injured consumers to hold responsible parties accountable. However, navigating strict liability cases can still be challenging without the guidance of an experienced Henderson product liability lawyer.
