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 occasions, a product in Springfield is defective. When a defective product causes an injury, this brings up the scope 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 type are manufacturing defects. These are defects that occur when a product was assembled or made improperly. For example, 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 occurs when a product is not of sound design, and will be defective even if made to specifications. For example, if a kitchen knife's specifications call for a metal blade that is extremely thin and brittle, creating a risk that it might break, causing injury, this is a design defect.

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