These days, most products on the local store shelves have been tested for almost any kind of situation. However, sometimes a product in Stratford is defective. If you or a family member has been injured by a defective product, you may have a Products Liability case.

Laws of Product Liability in Connecticut

There are three types of defects that the laws of Product Liability cover in Connecticut.

First, there are manufacturing defects. These are defects that occur when a product is soundly designed, but some error in its manufacturing caused it to be defective. For example, the design of a chair might call for a specific type of wood to be used in the legs. If another, more brittle type, were used instead, this would be a manufacturing defect.

The second class of defects are classified as design defects. These occur when the manufacturer built the item to the exact 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.
