Defective Product Injuries in Michigan: Who Is Liable?
When a dangerous product causes injury, Michigan law allows victims to hold manufacturers and sellers accountable.
Types of Product Defects
Product liability claims arise from design defects, manufacturing defects, and failures to warn of known dangers. Each requires different proof.
Proving a Product Claim
These cases often hinge on technical evidence and expert testimony showing the product was unreasonably dangerous and caused the injury. Preserving the product itself is critical.
Deadlines and Recovery
Michigan's general personal injury statute of limitations is three years from the date of injury under MCL 600.5805. Compensation can include medical costs, lost income, and pain and suffering.
