As a consumer, you are protected by law for defective products causing you harm. Under things like the Sale and Supply of Goods and Services laws and regulations, manufacturers and suppliers must only sell things that are, amongst other things, safe and fit for purpose.<\/p>\n

Defective products, depending on their purpose, can create all sorts of problems, including injuries and financial loss. We have represented (and still are representing) victims for major product claims here in the U.K., such as the PIP Breast Implant scandal<\/a>, the Metal-On-Metal hip device problems<\/a>, and the massive VW Emissions Scandal action<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s a huge area of law and one we’re particularly experienced in.
\n<\/p>\n

Clear legislation<\/h2>\n

Health and Safety laws require that products must be tested and assessed for any potential dangers or defects. If a defective product causes injury even though it was used properly and as intended, the victim may be entitled to compensation for the pain, injury and suffering resulting from the defect. In some more serious cases where the victim has to take time off work to recuperate from their injuries, loss of earnings may be recoverable too.<\/p>\n

If this defect is a widespread issue affecting as little as dozens of people to even as many as millions of people, a group action can be formed. Group actions are ultimately our speciality<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I have been injured by a faulty product; how can I claim?<\/h3>\n

If the injury was caused by a dangerous or defective product – whether the danger or defect is inherent from manufacturing, or has been caused by a \u201cweakness\u201d as such \u2013 you may be able to claim for product injury compensation<\/strong>. If its a case of financial loss caused by a product then you may be eligible to claim monetary damages.<\/p>\n

You can claim against both manufacturers and sellers. Claiming against sellers is a very useful route because many products are made abroad, so the law ensures that a seller can be equally as liable.<\/p>\n

We are a dedicated team of specialist group action lawyers<\/a> with a wealth of experience in bringing claims involving dangerous, defective, or miss-sold products that cause psychical and \/ or financial damage. If we take on your claim and we are confident we can win, we can offer you a No Win, No Fee service<\/a> so you don’t need to worry about what happens if your case doesn’t win.<\/p>\n

Get in touch with us now to see if you are eligible for a compensation claim. Whether you’re joining an existing action, or where you may be the first one to raise an issue, we can help you. We’ve spent years and years fighting for the rights of product claim victims, and our experience when it comes to fighting in some of the biggest U.K. product claims is extensive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
