Types of Product Liability Claims

Massachusetts laws aim to protect consumers from unsafe products. These claims can be intricate, but with a knowledgeable attorney from Peck Trial Attorneys, you can effectively navigate the legal procedures. Claims can be categorized into:

  1. Design Defect Claims – These claims focus on inherent flaws in a product’s design, proving the defect existed before the product reached consumers.
  2. Manufacturing Defect Claims – These involve errors during production. If the manufacturing defect is significant, it may render the manufacturer liable for damages.
  3. Failure to Warn Claims – If a manufacturer or retailer did not adequately warn about a product’s potential hazards, they might be held responsible through a failure to warn claim.
