Understanding Georgia Product Liability Law

There are three legal strategies in Georgia law under which a product manufacturer can be liable for serious personal injury or wrongful death resulting from a defective product:

• Strict Liability: Without proof of negligence, product makers can be held liable for damages to individuals and property when defective products they make and sell cause harm that is directly related to a faulty condition.
• Negligence: Product manufacturers can be held liable for dangerous design, improper testing or inspection, and failure to provide proper instructions, safety warnings or issue recalls.
• Implied Warranty: Georgia recognizes contract-based product liability claims under the Uniform Commercial Code, meaning products must adhere to the same intended use of the buyer and seller. A manufacturer's employees are exempt from claims under the UCC
