Product Liability Claims That Camili & Capo PA Can Help You Pursue
Product liability claims fall into one or more of three broad categories of claim:
Design defect – A design defect claim alleges that the inherent design or specifications of a product are unreasonably dangerous for the product’s intended uses. A design defect would affect all copies of a product sharing the defective design.
Manufacturing defect – A manufacturing defect claim alleges that a product was dangerous or unsafe to use because of some mistake that occurred when the product was being made, such that the product does not meet the original design specifications in some way. A manufacturing defect may affect only one example of a product or it may affect a larger production run.
Failure-to-warn – A failure-to-warn claim alleges that a product was sold without adequate warnings or instructions regarding the product’s safe use, or without adequate warnings as to the risks of injury when using the product.
Under New Jersey’s Product Liability Act, any party in the chain of commerce, such as a manufacturer or retailer, can be held liable for a defective product. In addition, the act does not require an injured consumer to prove that a defect occurred due to a manufacturer’s or other party’s negligence. Instead, a party may be held liable under the PLA if a product was too dangerous to use for its intended purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Product Liability Accidents in NJ
What is product liability?
Product liability refers to a type of personal injury claim in which a manufacturer, distributor, or retailer of a product is held responsible to financially compensate a user of a product who is injured by a product that suffers from some sort of defect that makes the product unreasonably dangerous for its intended use.
What is a product liability action based on negligence?
In New Jersey, someone harmed by a defective product may pursue a strict liability product liability claim. This means that it is not necessary to prove that a manufacturer or retailer committed some sort of negligent or reckless action that caused a product to be defective. All that is required is to show that the product is unreasonably dangerous. However, users who are hurt by defective products can still argue that a product suffered from a defect that resulted from a manufacturer’s or retailer’s failure to exercise ordinary care.
