A product liability claim exists when someone makes and sells a product that injures another due to a product defect. Such a claim can be based on negligence or strict liability. Corporations and individuals that manufacturer, distribute, supply, or sell a product to the public can be held responsible for injuries that products causes. In order to prove a product liability claim. The plaintiff must be able to show that the product was defective in design, manufacture, or that there was a failure to warn about the dangers of the product. Defective products can and do cause serious catastrophic personal injuries, and product liability actions can involve compensatory as well as punitive damages.
