Product liability is the legal responsibility of manufacturers and sellers to ensure their products are safe for consumers. If a product causes injury due to defects, they may be held accountable.
Product liability is that area of personal injury law that makes the manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers of consumer products liable for injuries resulting from the use of their products by the public. Research from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indicates that defective, dangerous, or unsafe products cause 29.4 million injuries and over 21,000 deaths every year. Within the U.S., an estimated $700 billion is spent annually on the injuries, deaths, and property damage caused by consumer product accidents and incidents.
