Compensation Awards in Alabama

These days, most items on the local store shelves have been tested for almost any kind of situation. However, occasionally a product in Winfield is defective. If you have been harmed by a defective product, then you may have a lawsuit under the laws of Product Liability.

The Law of Product Liability in Alabama

Defective products are classified into three different classes in Alabama.

First, manufacturing defects are those defects that stem from the actual manufacture of the product. For instance, if a desk collapses because the manufacturer did not put in three bolts that were required by the design, this would be a manufacturing defect.

The second type is the design defect. This happens when a product is not of sound design, and will be defective even if made to specifications. For instance, if a kitchen knife's specifications call for a metal blade that is very thin and brittle, creating a risk that it might break, causing injury, this is a design defect.
