A Matter of Responsibility

Responsibility for allowing a defective product to hit the market lies with each and every member of the distribution chain. Under state law, products must meet “ordinary expectations” held by Alabama consumers. When a product is dangerous to those who purchase it, the product is considered defective.

Accountability

State laws governing product liability are relatively broad. For instance, liability for a product defect could rest with any party in the product’s chain of distribution, including:

  • The manufacturer
  • A manufacturer of component parts
  • The entity/entities that assemble(s) or install(s) the defective product
  • The wholesaler
  • The retail store that sold the product

Types of Defects

In order to obtain a favorable outcome in a product liability case, you must not only prove that the product was defective, but that the defect made the product unreasonably dangerous. The three most common types of defects that may cause injury include:

  1. Design Defects — Present in a product from the beginning (i.e. something in the design of the product is inherently unsafe)
  2. Manufacturing Defects — Problems occurring during the course of a product’s manufacturer and/or assembly
  3. Marketing Defects — Flaws in the way a product is marketed (i.e. improper labeling, shoddy instructions and/or insufficient safety warnings)
