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 Methuen is defective. If you or a family member has been injured by a defective product, you may have a Products Liability case.

Laws Regarding Product Liability in Massachusetts

Defective products are categorized into three different categories in Massachusetts.

First, there are manufacturing defects. These are defects that occur when a product is soundly designed, but some error in its manufacturing caused it to be defective. For example, the design of a chair might call for a specific type of wood to be used in the legs. If another, more brittle type, were used instead, 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.
