Product liability is the area of law that holds manufacturers, designers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers legally responsible for injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. In Florida, product liability is grounded in the principle of strict liability — meaning an injured person does not need to prove the manufacturer was negligent. They only need to demonstrate the product was defective and that the defect caused their injury.
Every day, people interact with hundreds of manufactured products. When those products are defective — whether due to a design flaw, a manufacturing error, or inadequate warnings — innocent people can suffer serious injuries. Porcaro Law Group has represented product liability clients throughout Florida who have been injured by vehicles, poorly designed recreational products, defective medical devices, and inadequately labeled chemicals.
A design defect exists when the product’s design is inherently dangerous — making every unit of the product unsafe, regardless of how carefully it was manufactured. For example, an appliance with a wiring design that creates an electric shock risk in normal use would constitute a design defect. In these cases, the entire product line may be dangerous and subject to recall.
A manufacturing defect occurs during the production process, affecting a specific batch or unit of a product that is otherwise designed safely. Examples include toys contaminated with toxic paint due to a factory error, or a batch of medical devices assembled with substandard components. These defects are typically isolated rather than affecting the entire product line.
Failure to warn defects arise when a manufacturer does not provide adequate warnings or instructions about the risks associated with a product. If a company fails to warn consumers about prescription medication side effects, omits proper usage instructions for a power tool, or uses misleading labeling, they may be liable for any resulting injuries. Marketing defects also include claims about product performance that turn out to be false.
Under Florida law, multiple parties in a product’s chain of distribution can be held responsible for injuries, including:
This broad liability means that even if the manufacturer is based overseas or difficult to pursue, injured consumers in Delray Beach may still have viable claims against domestic distributors or retailers.

If you’re injured in an accident, your first priority should be your health. Seek medical attention right away, even if you feel okay at first. Document the accident scene, collect contact information from others involved or witnesses, and report the incident to the appropriate authorities or property owner. It can also help to speak with a personal injury lawyer early to protect your rights.
To have a potential personal injury case, there generally must be: (1) someone else’s negligence, (2) an injury, and (3) a direct connection between the negligence and your injury. A lawyer can help review the facts of your situation and explain whether you may have a valid claim.
No. Porcaro Law Group offers a free consultation so you can discuss your accident and legal options with us at no cost or obligation.
Most personal injury lawyers, including Porcaro Law Group, work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless your case results in a recover.
Florida has time limits, called statutes of limitations, that apply to personal injury cases. In most cases, you have four years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. It’s important to act early so you don’t miss the deadline.
