Product Description

Each year, thousands of consumers are injured by defective products.  If a product causes an injury after it reaches the consumer, anyone involved in the design, manufacturing, marketing, or sale of the product may be held potentially liable for damages, depending on the nature of the defect. 

Product liability cases are so often in the media today that every practitioner will benefit from learning more about this often complex area of law.

This timely recording will benefit anyone involved in the evaluation, litigation or trial of product liability matters, start to finish. You will learn the several theories under which a plaintiff might bring a claim, and the defenses that might defeat such a claim.  

Presenters address strategic, evidentiary and tactical concerns and offer tips on the selection and use of experts.  They also discuss several landmark product liability decisions that have profoundly affected how product liability cases are litigated in New York State.
