These days, most items on the local store shelves have been tested for almost any kind of situation. However, occasionally a product in Fountain Valley is defective. If you or a loved one has been hurt by such a product, you could have a lawsuit that utilizes the laws of Product Liability.

Laws of Product Liability in California

Defective products are categorized in 3 basic categories in California.

The first is identified as "manufacturing defects." These defects exist when a product is of sound design, but was assembled or built improperly. For instance, the design of an electric saw might include an emergency shutoff switch. If this switch was installed improperly, and therefore didn't work, this would be an example of a manufacturing defect.

Second, design defects are defects that are present because the design is faulty. For example, if a coffee mug melts any time hot coffee is put in because the design called for the improper material, this would be a design defect.
