What You Need To Know:

The Michigan Product Liability Act

The two-pronged standard for evaluating a defect in a product, as stated in Owens v. Allis-Chalmers Corp, 414 Mich 413, 326 NW2d 372 (1982), was adopted by the Michigan Legislature in 1996.

The present Michigan Product Liability Act requires proof that:

The product was unreasonably dangerous at the time it left the manufacturer’s control, and
A practical and technically feasible alternative design was available at the time of production.

The Michigan Product Liability Act dramatically impacts all Michigan defective product claims. You should consult with an attorney to learn more about your rights under Michigan law.

If you or a loved one was seriously injured by a defective product, talk with an experienced Michigan product liability lawyer today. Please submit a simple, free and confidential legal consultation form now.
