Every day, consumers in El Paso trust that the products they buy are safe. When a manufacturer, designer, or seller puts a defective product on the market and someone is injured, they can be held strictly liable — meaning you don't have to prove they were negligent, just that the product was defective and caused your injury. Karl Luth fights product liability cases against manufacturers large and small.
Types of Product Defects
Product liability cases involve three types of defects: (1) Design defects — the product's design is inherently dangerous, even when manufactured correctly; (2) Manufacturing defects — the product was designed safely but was made incorrectly; (3) Marketing defects (failure to warn) — the product lacks adequate warnings or instructions about its risks. Karl Luth evaluates all three types of defects in every product liability case. Defective auto parts that cause accidents may also involve car accident claims.
Common Product Liability Cases
Product liability cases involve a wide range of products: defective automobiles and auto parts (airbags, brakes, tires), dangerous pharmaceuticals and medical devices, defective children's toys and products, unsafe household appliances, defective tools and equipment, contaminated food products, and dangerous chemicals and cleaning products. Karl Luth has experience with all types of product liability cases.

Strict Liability in Product Cases
Texas follows strict liability for product defects, meaning you don't have to prove the manufacturer was negligent — only that the product was defective and caused your injury. This is a significant advantage for injured consumers. However, product liability cases are complex and often require expert testimony from engineers, scientists, and medical professionals. Karl Luth works with these experts to build strong cases. If a defective product caused a death, the family may have a wrongful death claim.
