Product liability law in Kentucky covers cases where consumers are harmed by faulty or defective products. These cases hold manufacturers, retailers, and other responsible parties liable for injuries caused by unsafe products. Kentucky law allows consumers to seek compensation for their injuries, damages, or losses resulting from these defective items.
Product liability cases can be complex and require an in-depth understanding of both the law and the intricacies of product design, manufacturing, and distribution. With the help of an experienced attorney, you can ensure that you are properly compensated for the harm caused.
There are three primary types of product liability cases in Kentucky:
Defective Design
A product may be deemed defective if it is inherently dangerous due to a flaw in its design. If a product is made with a design that makes it unsafe for use, it may lead to injury even when used as intended.
Defective Manufacturing
In cases involving defective manufacturing, the design of the product may be safe, but a mistake during the manufacturing process creates a defect that makes the product dangerous. This could be a faulty part or improper assembly, leading to an unsafe end product.
Failure to Warn (Marketing Defects)
Products that lack sufficient warnings or instructions about potential hazards can be held liable under this category. A failure to warn can apply to risks associated with the product’s use, maintenance, or any possible side effects that may cause harm to the consumer.
Product liability cases often result in severe injuries. Some of the most common types of injuries caused by defective products include:
