Delaware Product Liability Law

Our product liability attorneys are familiar with a variety of defective product claims. If you were hurt by a product that you had a reasonable assumption has been safe for it’s intended use, chances are that we have seen a similar case before. We always approach each case with a fresh, personalized perspective. Our legal support is always individualized to each client.

Product liability cases can vary based on the product in question, such as:

  • Auto parts: A defective auto part can put a driver in severe danger. Tires, braking systems, and airbags – like the infamous Takata airbags – are often the center of product liability lawsuits.
  • Medical devices: A failure in a medical device can be catastrophic for the patient. Defective hip replacements, hernia meshes, IVC filters, and more have been in the news lately for various product failures.
  • Pharmaceutical drugs: Did you take a pharmaceutical drug or prescribed medicine, only for it to do more harm than good? This situation affects thousands of Americans each year. We can help you bring the fight to Big Pharma.
  • Infant products: In recent news, the Fisher-Price Rock ‘n Play sleeper has been linked to dozens of infant deaths, which has underlined the need for stricter safety regulations on infant products.

Three Types of Product Defects

A product can be defective in three distinct ways:

  • Design: A design defect cannot be avoided because it is intrinsic to the product’s design. Products that are defective by design should never have been made in the first place.
  • Manufacturing: A manufacturing defect is caused by a mistake that happens after the product is designed but before it is sold. Oftentimes, manufacturing defects only affect batches of a product, not necessarily all similar products.
  • Marketing: A marketing defect occurs when a consumer is not given correct information about a product. For example, important safety information is omitted from a product’s packaging, or no instructions are included in the box.

To start building your claim, we will want to know what happened to cause the product to become defective. Was it a design, manufacturing, or marketing error? Or was it a combination of mistakes that resulted in a defect that hurt you? We can use our investigative talents and network with various experts to get to the root of the product’s defect.
