Product Liability Terms

 


Today's Terms

Assumption of Risk

Definition:
This means that you knew of the risks in using the product, but you decided to use the product anyway.

Online Pharmacies

Definition:
If an online pharmacy requires you to waive your legal rights in order to do business with it, reconsider your purchase. A waiver of liability should not be necessary to receive your drugs.

Design Defect

Definition:
If the actual design of a product makes it unreasonably dangerous, then every product with that design is defective. For example, the poor design of the Ford Pinto is what made it defective, and because the design was common to all Pintos, they were all defective in design.
