The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that hundreds of thousands of people are injured each year by defective products. Even when a product is manufactured and marketed by a reputable company, defects can occur and cause serious injuries.

Types of Product Defects
There are many different types of product defects that can cause injuries. Some of the most common types of product defects include:
- Poorly designed products
- Defective manufacturing
- Failure to provide adequate warnings
If you were injured by a product, the Law Office of Brett H. Pritchard can help you determine whether the product was defective and determine the cause of the defect. We can then help you pursue compensation for the damages caused by the defective product.
Who Is Responsible for a Defective Product?
When it comes to product liability, it is important to hold all parties responsible for the defect accountable. Product liability claims can be complex and require the knowledge and experience of an experienced Killeen personal injury attorney to prove.
Product liability cases often involve multiple parties who may be held liable for the injury caused by a defective product. These can include the following:
- The Manufacturer: The manufacturer is typically the primary party liable for defects in a product. If the defect arises from the product's design or manufacturing process, the manufacturer can be held responsible.
- The Distributor: Distributors are companies that act as intermediaries between manufacturers and retailers. If a distributor is responsible for the handling, transportation, or sale of a defective product, they may be liable for any injuries caused by that product. For instance, if a distributor is aware of a defect but continues to sell the product, they may be held accountable.
- The Retailer: Retailers who sell products to consumers can also be held liable for selling defective products, especially if they are aware of the defect or failure to warn consumers. In some cases, the retailer may be found negligent if they failed to properly inspect the product or remove it from the shelves after becoming aware of its dangers.
- The Product Designer: If the product defect is related to the design of the product, the designer may be held responsible for the failure. Product designers have a responsibility to ensure that their designs are safe and do not pose unreasonable risks to consumers.
- Third-Party Parties: In some cases, other third-party entities such as contractors, engineers, or subcontractors who worked on the product may be liable for defects that caused injury.

Proving a Product Liability Case in Bell County, TX
Defective product lawsuits can be complex and require an experienced attorney to navigate. When pursuing a claim, a victim must prove that:
- The product was defective and that they were injured as a result.
- The defect existed when the product left the control of the manufacturer.
- The defect was the cause of their injuries.
This can be difficult to prove, and an experienced Killeen product liability attorney will gather evidence, work with experts, and investigate the circumstances of your injury to prove that the product was defective and that the defect was the direct cause of your harm.
Damages in Product Liability Claims
If your product liability claim is successful, you may be entitled to various types of damages, including:
- Medical Expenses: Compensation for medical bills incurred due to the injury, including surgeries, hospital stays, physical therapy, and rehabilitation.
- Lost Wages: If your injury prevented you from working, you may be entitled to compensation for lost income, both past and future.
- Pain and Suffering: Compensation for the physical and emotional pain caused by the injury, including permanent scarring, disability, or other long-term effects.
- Property Damage: If your property was damaged due to the defective product (e.g., a fire caused by a faulty appliance), you may be entitled to compensation for the damage.
- Punitive Damages: In cases of particularly reckless or egregious conduct, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the defendant and deter future misconduct.
