Download or read book Managing Product Liability Risks written by J. Wilson McCallister and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's litigation environment manufacturers must systematically manage their product liability risks. This requires that product managers and corporate decision-makers take as much interest in managing the company's product liability as they do in their initiatives to increase shareholder value. They simply cannot sit back and criticize the system while relying on past practices and antiquated legal principles. That's a recipe for disaster. Corporate executives must understand that shareholder value means little if the company is forced into bankruptcy by product litigation. Society today demands more from manufacturers than it did just a few decades ago. A systematic approach to managing product liability risks, therefore, begins with an appreciation of the legal principles under which products are judged, and an acceptance of the fact that the rules will continue to change to meet consumer expectations. Corporate managers cannot be surprised by the civil justice system. They must understand the system and design and distribute products that conform to its requirements. In this book the authors provide corporate managers with a comprehensive look at current and developing trends in product liability law and offers practical suggestions on how to minimize the risks of litigation as product liability law continues to expand. Co-authored by David H. Canter, Partner, Harrington Foxx Dubrow & Canter Llp, and J. Wilson McCallister, this book provides unique insight into the exposure of a corporation to product liability litigation and offers the benefit of the authors' experience to managing this risk.
