Product liability refers to the legal responsibility that manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and retailers have when a product causes harm due to a defect or failure to warn. In New York, this area of law ensures that injured consumers can seek accountability when companies fail to protect them from foreseeable risks.
Product liability cases can arise from many types of consumer goods, including:
If a product was sold to the public and caused injury during normal use, there may be grounds for a product liability claim.
Many nursing homes and their insurance companies try to downplay bedsores, claiming they are a normal part of aging or the result of underlying health conditions. However, medical professionals agree that bedsores are preventable with proper care.

In a product liability case, there are typically three categories of defects that may lead to legal action:
These are inherent flaws in the product’s design that make it dangerous, even when manufactured correctly. For example, a power tool without proper safety guards or a crib that poses a risk of suffocation could fall into this category.
This occurs when a product’s design is safe, but something goes wrong during production, assembly, or packaging. A single faulty car airbag or a contaminated batch of medication could be examples of manufacturing defects.
If a product lacks proper instructions or fails to include warnings about known dangers, consumers may unknowingly use it in a hazardous way. This is particularly common in drug injury cases where side effects or interactions were not adequately disclosed.
A local Brooklyn attorney from TopDog Law’s network can review your case to determine what kind of defect was involved and what parties may be held responsible.
