In today’s world, product defects can lead to injuries and subsequent civil court cases can involve a wide range of products across different industries. Some common types of product defects that have resulted in civil court cases include:
Pharmaceutical Products:
- Defective medications that cause harmful side effects or fail to provide the intended therapeutic benefits.
- Contaminated or improperly manufactured drugs leading to adverse reactions or health complications.
Automotive Products:
- Faulty airbags or seatbelts that fail to deploy during accidents, resulting in severe injuries or fatalities.
- Defective vehicle components such as brakes, steering systems, or tires, cause accidents due to malfunction.
Consumer Electronics:
- Malfunctioning electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, or tablets that overheat or explode, causing burns or property damage.
- Defective lithium-ion batteries in electronic products leading to fires or explosions.
Medical Devices:
- Faulty medical implants or prosthetics that cause infections, organ damage, or other complications.
- Defective surgical instruments or equipment resulting in surgical errors or patient harm.
Children’s Products:

These lawsuits seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages incurred as a result of the injuries caused by the defective products
