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

The Law of Product Liability in California

Three different types of defects are categorized in the laws of Product Liability in California.

The first is known 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.

The second class of defects are categorized as design defects. These happen when the manufacturer built the item to the precise specifications, but the design was fault. As an example, if a coffee mug is too thin and a hot beverage cracks the mug and cuts you, this would be a design defect.
