Ohio Defective Product Law Overview

We believe that in Ohio, companies that make dangerous products that cause injury should be held accountable.  The area of Ohio law that covers these types of cases is generally referred to as Ohio product liability law. 

Under Ohio law, ORC 2307.711, a product liability action is:

“Product liability claim” means a claim that is asserted in a civil action pursuant to sections 2307.71 to 2307.80 of the [Ohio] Revised Code and that seeks to recover compensatory damages from a manufacturer or supplier for death, physical injury to person, emotional distress, or physical damage to property other than the product in question, that allegedly arose from any of the following:

(a)    The design, formulation, production, construction, creation, assembly, rebuilding, testing, or marketing of that product;

(b)   Any warning or instruction, or lack of warning or instruction, associated with that product;

(c)    Any failure of that product to conform to any relevant representation or warranty.
