Understanding Product Liability Law in South Carolina
Product liability is an area of personal injury law that focuses on injuries caused by defective or unsafe products. These types of cases are typically based on one of three legal theories:
1. Design Defect – The product’s design is inherently dangerous before it’s even manufactured.
2. Manufacturing Defect – A flaw occurs during the production process that causes the product to become dangerous.
3. Failure to Warn (Marketing Defect) – The product lacks adequate instructions or warnings, leading to improper use and injury.
South Carolina law allows consumers who are injured by a defective product to pursue compensation from any responsible party in the product’s chain of distribution—including manufacturers, designers, wholesalers, and retailers.
