Manufacturers have a legal responsibility for the safety to their consumers. When consumers are injured or harmed by a product while using it in its intended manner then the manufacturers, wholesalers, designers, retailers, and anyone involved with the product being sold to the consumer may be liable to pay compensation. These cases may involve strict liability, negligence, breach of warranty, or misrepresentation and can arise as a result of a dangerous product, a drug recall or a defectively installed medical device. Legal action for compensation can be taken as a result of failure to provide warnings when knowledge of hazardous products exists, failing to ensure that a defective or malfunctioning part is not used in products, or failing to warn when a fault exists that makes the product unsuitable for the purposes for which it was sold.

Product liability falls into four main categories which are;

• Defective design: The product is inherently dangerous as a result of poor or inadequate design. Whilst some designs are clearly inadequate others can produce complex and difficult legal argument.
• Defective manufacture: This is usually as a result of a quality control failure when a product or batch does not conform to the usual specification. Manufacturers are often strictly liable for product liability as a result of defective manufacture and a consumer may, in certain circumstances, find it unnecessary to prove that they were negligent.
• Defective warnings: Are the warnings accurate and up to date and does the product information accurately reflect any dangers or risks associated with the product, or have they been contradicted by statements in advertising or made by sales representatives?
• Negligent after sales surveillance: Companies must respond adequately when inherent defects come to light subsequent to sale of the product to warn consumers about the product's lack of safety.

Defective product claims require specialist legal knowledge and experience. If you are the innocent victim of dangerous or substandard product or as a result of a drugs recall or a medical device failing to meet a reasonable standard of safety then you may be able to recover compensation.
