What Are the 3 Types of Products Liability Claims?
Products liability is a relatively broad term for claims filed due to injuries caused by products. Although the injuries can vary widely, the reason that a product caused them can often be narrowed down into three different categories.
​
The three common categories that products liability claims fall into are:
​
-
Defective manufacture
-
Defective design
-
Failure to warn
Product Liability vs. Strict Liability
Although both products liability and strict liability cases have to do with injuries caused by a product, there are distinct differences between the ways that the cases are tried. More specifically, the burden of proof required for each of these cases is different.
​
Products liability claims require you to prove that your injuries were caused by a defect, another party’s carelessness, or negligence. Strict liability claims, on the other hand, require distinct proof that you used the product as intended.
