Charleston Defective Products Attorneys
Product Recall Lawyers in West Virginia
Manufacturers can be held financially liable for injuries and fatalities caused by defective products. In most cases involving defective products, however, manufacturers claim a consumer used a product incorrectly. They may also insist their product conforms to all safety regulations, thereby relieving them of any liability for injuries or deaths caused by the use of their product. As a result, products liability cases tend to be very technical in nature, addressing points of engineering, chemistry and physics.

Does a product adhere to all state and federal safety regulations? Manufacturers can still be held liable if there are quantifiable reasons for believing they should have foreseen certain dangers associated with their product.
For instance, if a household cleaner is combustible when mixed with bleach, its manufacturer should have foreseen the possibility of consumers using its product in conjunction with bleach. As such, a warning should be placed on the label alerting people to this danger.
Failure to do so would constitute a violation of duty of care to protect others from known, foreseeable dangers. In this sense, even if the cleaner is not in violation of any state or federal laws, because the manufacturer failed to warn of an obvious danger, it can be held legally liable for violating a duty of care to consumers.
