Arizona Products Liability Law

Arizona “Products Liability” generally refers to the area of law dealing with consumer products that cause injury or death to people. A body of law has developed to protect consumers from harmful or defective products manufactured and/or sold by companies and individuals. Unfortunately, thousands of preventable deaths or serious injuries occur annually from faulty products. Besides death and injury, health care costs, job loss, and many other social and individual losses are caused by these events.

Arizona products liability covers any accidents due to some malfunction of the products, either because it was designed in a faulty way, or manufactured poorly. Some major examples of products liability cases include SUV rollovers, defective tires, ATV accidents, faulty hospital or medical products, and children’s or baby products resulting in child or infant death or injury.
