AlpernSchubert P.C. provides representation for product liability cases in Pittsburgh, PA and the surrounding area. Product liability is the area of the law in which manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, retailers, and others who make products available to the public are held responsible for the injuries those products cause.
A product liability claim may succeed even when products were used incorrectly by the consumer, as long as the incorrect use was foreseeable by the manufacturer (or any other party in the “supply chain.”)
Product liability claims are generally based on strict liability, not on negligence. Under the theory of strict liability, a manufacturer is held liable regardless of whether it acted negligently. It allows recovery for an injured customer who might be in a difficult position to prove what a manufacturer did or did not do wrong in its design or
manufacturing process.
