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

Product Liability Laws

Defective products are categorized in 3 basic categories in Connecticut.

The first type are manufacturing defects. These are defects that happen when a product was assembled or made improperly. For instance, if a table has a sound design, but during assembly two key bolts were not installed, 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.
