The legal concepts of strict liability and breach of warranty are essential to mesothelioma lawsuits. Strict liability is a type of negligence, which means that a defendant is liable for an injury when they fail to adhere to the standard level of care that any other person in their position would exercise under similar circumstances.
A breach of warranty occurs when a manufacturer or seller makes a claim regarding their product which leads to injuries. If, for example, the seller or manufacturer claims an asbestos product to be safe to use and it turns out to be unreasonably dangerous the seller could be held accountable for the injuries.
