Johnson & Bell shareholder David A Warnick has published an article on Product Liability trends and developments in Illinois for the 2026 Chambers Global Practice Guides, which are launching this week.
The Global Practice Guides are a companion to the Chambers USA Legal Guide, which has ranked the top US law firms since 1990. Johnson & Bell is one of the firms ranked for Commercial Litigation in Illinois.
David’s article is titled “Illinois Widens Reach of Product Liability for a New Generation of Products and Sellers,” and focuses on “two pending legislative initiatives, each aimed at one of two threshold questions that have historically allowed defendants to limit or avoid exposure: What counts as a product, and who counts as a seller. One is directed at conversational artificial intelligence, the other at online marketplaces.”
Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers will benefit from David’s excellent analysis of these developments.
