Types of Liability in a West Virginia Defective Product Claim

Liability in a claim involving defective products can be found with the manufacturer, designer, retailer or any other party playing a role in making or selling the product. In some cases, there may be more than one responsible party.

Liability for defective products can take a number of forms, including: 

• failure to warn of dangers or hazards;
• defect in the manufacturing of the product;
• defect in the design of the product;
• insufficient or incorrect labeling; and
• selling a product that has been recalled.  

These are just some examples of the types of liability that may apply to your case. When you or a loved one is injured as a result of a defective product, you may be able to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering and other types of losses through a West Virginia injury claim.
