Compensation Awards in New York

Most of the products on the shelves of stores have been tested and retested for safety. However, there are occasions where a product in Ithaca is defective. If you or a family member has been harmed by a defective product, you may have a Products Liability case.

Product Liability Laws

Defective products are grouped into three different classes in New York.

Manufacturing defects are the first. These are defects that come from the actual production and making of the product. For instance, 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 happens when a product is not of sound design, and will be defective even if made to specifications. For instance, if a kitchen knife's specifications call for a metal blade that is very thin and brittle, creating a risk that it might break, causing injury, this is a design defect.
