When you walk into a store these days, you can expect that almost every product on the shelves has been tested and re-tested for safety. However, on rare occasions, a product in Germantown is defective. If you or a family member has been harmed by a defective product, you may have a Products Liability case.

Product Liability Laws in Maryland

There are three forms of defects that the laws of Product Liability encompass in Maryland.

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 type are design defects. Design defects are found when the plans off of which the products are built are faulty themselves. If, for instance, a thermos called for too thin of a material to be used, and hot liquids spilled out and burned the user, this would be a design defect.
