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 occurrences, a product in Urbana 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

Defective products are categorized into three different categories in Illinois.

First, manufacturing defects are those defects that stem from the actual manufacture of the product. For example, if a desk collapses because the manufacturer did not put in three bolts that were required by the design, this would be 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 example, a thermos called for too thin of a material to be used, and hot liquids spilled out and scorched the user, this would be a design defect.
