If your injury was the result of a product that was defective or that was not accompanied by an adequate warning of danger you may have a claim against the manufacturer.  The defect or inadequate warning must have existed at the time the product left the hands of the defendant. A few examples are seat belts or airbags that fail to protect the occupant in an accident, top heavy SUV's that roll over too easily, defectively manufactured tires, food not fit for human consumption, prescription medication causing injury to the patient and ladders that are defectively designed or manufactured. Most product liability cases require expensive expert witness testimony to prove liability.
