A product may have a defective design or manufacturing flaw, or it may be
dangerous because it fails to give consumers or users adequate label warnings or
instructions on proper use. If you are harmed by a defective product, the law
provides for compensation for physical injuries and property damage resulting
from defective and unreasonably dangerous products, and from the failure of a
manufacturer or seller to warn the consumer of product dangers.
The law makes all persons and entities, sellers, and manufacturers alike,
strictly liable for any harm caused by the defective product. The courts have
given way to fairness by adopting the Doctrine of Strict Product Liability. This
doctrine was adopted to relieve the victim of the burden of proving negligence.
