When you walk into a store these days, you can expect that almost every item on the shelves has been tested and re-tested for safety. However, on rare times, a product in Streamwood is defective. When a defective product causes an injury, this brings up the region of law called Product Liability.

The Law of Product Liability in Illinois

Three different kinds of defects are classified in the laws of Product Liability in Illinois.

The first is recognized as "manufacturing defects." These defects exist when a product is of sound design, but was assembled or built improperly. For example, 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 instance, if a coffee mug melts any time hot coffee is put in because the design called for the wrong material, this would be a design defect.
