Product liability lawsuits: Why you need a lawyer

Product liability lawsuits are very complex. We recommend speaking to our Pennsylvania lawyers before trying to pursue an injury claim on your own.

A person injured by a defective product in Pennsylvania - such as air bags, tires, or brakes - can file a products liability claim against the responsible party. A claim may be brought against the manufacturer, the supplier, distributor or retailer of the product. Manufacturers and sellers of dangerous goods can be sued for negligence under various circumstances, including:

  • Failure to inspect or test the product before placing it on the market
  • Creating a flaw in the product
  • Failing to discover a flaw in a product
  • Failure to discover that the product could be dangerous
  • Failure to warn or adequately warn of a risk or hazard associated with the product

A person injured by a defect in a product may have a product liability claim if the person:

  • was the purchaser of the product and was injured while using it
  • was an innocent bystander and was injured by the defective product
  • borrowed the defective product from a friend, used it, and was injured by it
