Compensation Awards in North Carolina

Most of the products on the shelves of stores have been tested and retested for safety. However, there are occasions where a product in Asheville is defective. When a defective product causes an injury, this brings up the sphere of law called Product Liability.

Product Liability Laws

Defective products are grouped into three different categories in North Carolina.

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 certain type of wood to be used in the legs. If another, more brittle type, were used instead, this would be a manufacturing defect.

Second, design defects are defects that are present because the design is faulty. For instance, if a coffee mug melts any time hot coffee is put in because the design called for the wrong material, this would be a design defect.
