However, on rare occurrences, a product in College Park is defective. If you or a family member has been injured by a defective product, you may have a Products Liability case.

Product Liability Laws in Maryland

There are three types of defects that the laws of Product Liability cover in Maryland.

Manufacturing defects are the first. These are defects that come from the actual production and making of the product. For example, 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 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.
