An Overview of Georgia’s Product Liability Laws
Product liability cases are largely governed by state law. If you were harmed by a dangerous and defective product in Augusta, it is crucial that you have a general understanding of Georgia law. Under GA Code § 51-1-11, can be held legally responsible for injuries caused by a defective product. Here are key provisions of Georgia’s product liability law that you should know:
- Georgia is a Strict Liability State: While some product liability claims are based on negligence, it is not a requirement in Georgia. A manufacturer may be held strictly liable for injuries caused by a defective product.
- Several Types of Defect Product Claims: Product liability claims take several forms, including design defects, manufacturing defects, and failure to warn. All allegations of dangerous and defective products should be thoroughly investigated.
- Two Year Statute of Limitations: You have limited time to initiate a claim. There is a two year statute of limitations for defective product cases in Georgia. Be proactive: Injured victims should consult with an Augusta product liability lawyer as soon as possible.
- Ten Year Statute of Repose: Some product liability cases in Georgia are subject to a statute of response. If a product was sold more than ten years ago, a product liability claim may not be viable. Notably, the statute of response does not apply to failure to warn cases.
