What is Product Liability?

Product liability refers to the legal responsibility that manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers have for the products they make and sell. When a product is defective and causes harm to a consumer, the injured party can pursue a product liability claim to recover damages. These claims typically fall under three categories:

  1. Design Defects: Flaws inherent in a product's design that make it unreasonably dangerous.
  2. Manufacturing Defects: Errors that occur during the production or assembly process, resulting in a dangerous product.
  3. Marketing Defects: Failure to provide adequate warnings or instructions, leading to improper use and injury.

Common Types of Defective Products

Defective products can be found in various industries and can cause significant harm to consumers. Some common types of defective products include:

  • Auto Parts: Defective airbags, brakes, seatbelts, and tires can lead to catastrophic accidents and injuries.
  • Medical Devices: Faulty implants, pacemakers, and surgical instruments can result in serious health complications.
  • Pharmaceutical Drugs: Dangerous side effects or incorrect dosages due to defective medications can cause severe health issues or death.
  • Household Products: Appliances, electronics, and furniture with design or manufacturing defects can pose fire hazards, electrical shocks, or other dangers.
  • Children's Products: Toys, car seats, and cribs with defects can lead to injuries or fatalities in young children.

If you or a loved one has been harmed by any of these products, our Pahrump product liability lawyers are here to help you seek justice.

Strict Liability in Nevada

Nevada follows the principle of strict liability in product liability cases. This means that a manufacturer, distributor, or retailer can be held liable for injuries caused by a defective product regardless of whether they were negligent. To establish strict liability, the following elements must be proven:

  1. The product was defective.
  2. The defect existed when the product left the defendant's control.
  3. The defect caused the plaintiff's injury.

Under strict liability, you do not need to prove that the manufacturer was careless or negligent, only that the product was defective and caused your injury.

How a Pahrump Product Liability Lawyer Can Help

Navigating a product liability claim can be challenging, especially when facing large corporations with extensive legal resources. A skilled Pahrump product liability lawyer can provide invaluable assistance by:
