Greater Detroit Area Product Liability
Manufacturers are legally responsible to produce products that are safe for their customers. If they don’t, manufacturers can be held liable for any defects in the design or production of their products.
If you have been injured by a defective or dangerous product, you may have a product liability claim and be eligible for compensation.
Michigan Product Liability Laws
Under Michigan’s laws governing product liability lawsuits, the manufacturer or seller can only be held liable if two elements are proven.
First, the plaintiff must establish that the product was not reasonably safe at the time it left the manufacturer or seller, meaning the product’s defect was the result of a design or manufacturing error. Second, the plaintiff must prove that an alternative production practice was available that would have prevented the harm caused by the product.
At Morgan & Morgan, we have the resources to go toe-to-toe with large manufacturers and sellers of defective products to fight for your rights. Our attorneys frequently consult with top experts about the design and manufacturing processes of a variety of products to prove product liability in difficult claims.
Most importantly, we are consumer advocates. Our attorneys in the Greater Detroit area work For The People, not the powerful. If you or a loved one has been injured by a defective product, please contact us today for a free case review.

Four Common Product Liability Claims
Product liability claims will usually fall into one of the below categories:
Defectively Manufactured Product: A defectively manufactured product will have a flaw in its individualized manufacturing. Likely, a unique error happened in the production of the specific defective product.
Defectively Designed Product: Defectively designed products contain an error in their engineering or blueprints, causing the entire line of products to be defective and/or dangerous.
Marketing Defects: Products that have been falsely or incorrectly advertised are considered to be “marketing defects.” These claims may involve a company claiming a product is safe when they know it is not or a pharmaceutical company who has advertised that a drug or medical product can be used in an unapproved or dangerous way.
Failure to Warn or Instruct: Manufacturers have a responsibility to provide adequate warnings, instructions or any otherwise necessary information about a product which deviates from the commonly marketed model. Companies that neglect to do so may be held liable for their “failure to warn or instruct.”
How long do I have to file a claim?
In Michigan, customers have a limited amount of time to file a product liability lawsuit, known as the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations for filing a product liability claim in Michigan is three years.
If you don’t pursue your product liability case within this statute of limitations, you could be barred from recovering compensation for your injuries. This is why it’s important to seek legal help as soon as possible.
