Holding Manufacturers Accountable for Dangerous Products
Georgia law requires that manufacturers and sellers of products ensure that the products they sell are not defective in any way or unreasonably dangerous to users.
Manufacturing companies and other businesses must provide proper warning if any part of their product is unsafe or if using the product in a dangerous way could be hazardous to the user’s health or safety. If manufactures designed and sold better products and the sellers of those products properly warned the users of the dangers, then many injuries and deaths could have been avoided or prevented just by following the law. Attorney Gregory Chancy believes that companies who don’t follow the law should be held accountable.
In the state of Georgia, either the person who was injured or the family of a person who has died as a result of a defective product can file a products liability claim, if they can prove that the product was already dangerous when it left the manufacturer’s control and that there was no warning of the unreasonably dangerous condition. Some products are ones that the manufacturers had a better and safer way to design the product but choose not to do so. Once the unreasonably dangerous condition was known, the law requires a warning label to give the users notice of the hazardous condition.
