Who's liable for defective product fire burn injuries?
If you bring a product liability lawsuit, manufacturers or any other party involved in distributing or selling the product can be a responsible party. Any person or entity involved in the chain of distribution of consumer products has a duty to ensure the products they sell are not unreasonably dangerous. Serious harm can occur as a result of a manufacturing defect, lack of clear warnings, inadequate instructions, unreasonably dangerous products, faulty parts, or design defects, for example.
In a fire product liability case, it is important to discover what happened to determine who can be held accountable to the injured party. This can be very difficult because of the damages typically caused when things catch fire. Fires often damage or destroy the product and other evidence. A product liability lawyer is knowledgeable about the laws that protect consumers against the dangers created by defective products and how to prove the burns were caused by a defective one.
