⚖️ Legal Information
Under Georgia’s product liability statute (O.C.G.A. § 51-1-11), a manufacturer can be held strictly liable when a product was not merchantable and reasonably suited for its intended use, and was in essentially the same condition as when it left the manufacturer.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
1Do I need to prove the manufacturer was negligent?
Not always. Georgia’s strict liability law can hold a manufacturer responsible for a defective, unreasonably dangerous product regardless of how careful they were in making it.
2What if I was using the product in an unusual way?
Foreseeable misuse is sometimes still covered, though comparative fault may reduce your recovery depending on the facts.
3What if the product was recalled after my injury?
A later recall can support your claim by helping show the product was defective, though it doesn’t automatically prove your individual case.
Georgia’s strict product liability law means a manufacturer can be responsible for an unreasonably dangerous, defective product even without proof of carelessness. We evaluate design defects, manufacturing errors, and failure-to-warn claims to find every available path to compensation.
📋 What To Do
- Seek medical attention for your injuries
- Preserve the product and all packaging — do not discard or return it
- Photograph the product defect and your injuries
- Keep your receipt and any warranty information
- Call us before speaking with the manufacturer
