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

The Law of Product Liability in California

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

Manufacturing defects are the first. These are defects that come from the actual production and making of the product. For instance, if essential screws, which are called for in the design, are not installed in a chair, and the chair breaks when someone sits on it as a result, this is 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.
