Manufacturers need to be held accountable for damages if their products or machines result in injuries to their customers. In these situations, Oklahoma product liability laws allow consumers to file claims against these manufacturers. Parties that should and will be held responsible include the manufacturer, the wholesaler, or the retail store owner.

That’s why we at the law firm of Griffin Reynolds & Associates use our resources and knowledge to file lawsuits against companies that manufacture and distribute defective and dangerous products that result in physical or psychological harm to our clients.

Dangerous and Defective Products
A product liability claim may arise from multiple causes included car defects, faulty products, workplace machines or:
Prescription drugs with dangerous side effects
Seatback collapse or seat belt failure
Airbags that don’t deploy or that cause injuries when deployed
SUV rollovers
Failed safety switches
Unsafe toys
Machinery that catches fire/explodes
Products liability suits center on products with inherent defects that harm a user. While these items typically include personal property, they can also expand across a household to involve gas lines, pets, and real estate, and even beyond.
Strict Liability in Oklahoma
Products liability claims in Oklahoma can be based on three areas: negligence, strict liability, or a breach of warranty. If a product is defective due to the way it was designed or constructed, either the manufacturer, seller, or distributor is strictly liable for the injuries those defects cause. In product liability cases, whether the manufacturer or supplier demonstrated great care when making the product is irrelevant. If a defect in the product caused injury, the individual may be liable. The injured party need only prove that a defect existed in the product that made it unreasonably dangerous and resulted in a personal injury to bring forth a claim and be awarded compensation.
3 Causes of Product Liability Claims
Design defects – product was poorly made, most likely with low-quality materials
Manufacturing defects – there is a flaw in its planning or constructing the item
Defects in marketing – it lacks warnings about risks that aren’t directly obvious to consumers
