When you invest in a product, you inherently trust it will work as it is intended to work. However, there are times when a product is defective.

Proving liability in a defective product claim typically rests with three distinct areas of concern or origin of the defect. Those three theories of liability include:
- Defective Design— This theory pertains to liability resulting from the design of the product in question. Typically through a mistake or oversight, the product becomes dangerous even when used in accordance with how it was intended to be used.
- Defective Manufacture— This specific theory of liability pertains to a product that proves to be defective from a flaw or other issue directly related to the manufacturing process itself.
- Marketing Defects— This area of liability relates to a products terms of use, warning labels of instructions. Insufficient warnings or instructions that prevented a user from discovering or protecting themselves from a defect in the product can be proof of a marketing defect. Also, liability may be proven if a defect in the product itself resulted in a user being unable to use or apply the product safely.
