Product liability claims arise from injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. Common cases include accidents due to product recalls, but other scenarios, such as design flaws, manufacturing defects, or inadequate warnings, can also be valid.

Key Points:

- Product Recalls:Injuries from products that were recalled but not returned or repaired, such as defective airbags or faulty appliances.
- Design Defects:Unsafe products due to poor design, like a car model prone to rollovers.
- Manufacturing Defects: Injuries from production errors such as improperly assembled machinery.
- Inadequate Warnings: Products lacking proper safety warnings leading to misuse and injury.
Examples:
- Injuries from a car accident due to unrepaired, recalled faulty brakes.
- A child injured by a toy with a manufacturing defect.
- Accidents involving household chemicals without clear usage instructions.

Do not submit leads where:

- User Negligence: The injury occurred due to misuse of the product against provided instructions.
- Unreported Damage:  The product was damaged by the user, not repaired, and led to injury.
This approach ensures that only valid product liability claims are submitted, focusing on cases where the product was genuinely defective or dangerous.
