Products Liability

As in Workers' Comp subrogation, products liability cases depend on an analysis of the equipment involved in the incident. Machine design and the application of SAFETYTROUGHDESIGN^® are often at the heart of most products liability cases. Sometimes other factors such as the manufacturing process must be investigated.

You have a products liability case against the machine manufacturer if you can prove:

• The product was defective when used.
• The defect existed when the product was manufactured.
• The defect was the proximate cause of the injury.
• The specific use of the product that caused the injury was reasonably foreseeable.
