What Is Product Liability?
Product liability law allows injured consumers to seek compensation when they are harmed by dangerous or defective products. These claims typically fall into one of three categories:
- Design defects – the product is inherently dangerous due to its design
- Manufacturing defects – an error during production made the product unsafe
- Failure to warn – the product lacked proper instructions or warnings about risks
If a product injured you or someone you love, our Upstate South Carolina defective product lawyers are ready to investigate and pursue your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if I have a product liability case?
If you were injured while using a product as intended, and the product had a defect or lacked proper warnings, you may have a valid claim. Our attorneys at the Hodge Law Firm can evaluate it during a free consultation.
What damages can I recover?
You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, future medical needs, lost income, pain and suffering, permanent disability, and more.
