Faulty Product Claims

Experts in Faulty Product Claims

Maclaren Buggy Update:  On 6th May 2010, Maclaren agreed to compensate over 40 UK children who were injured in the hinges of their pushchairs.  Read a full Maclaren buggy case update.

We expect all the products we buy to be safe and in good condition, however, this isn’t always true.  Anything from cosmetics to toasters to diving equipment can cause an injury if they aren’t up to scratch.  If you or someone you know has suffered an injury caused by a faulty product, you may be able to claim compensation.  You can also read an update on the sofa rash cases and see a list of sofa rash cases and see a list of affected sofa models

 

Our approach to faulty product claims

We have solicitors who are experts in making faulty product claims.  If you, your child or someone you know has suffered an injury from a faulty product, you may be able to bring a faulty product claim.

Depending on the severity of your injury you may require rehabilitation and we will support you through this vital process.  We can ensure you get the appropriate help and treatment and where suitable put you in touch with support groups.

Some of the sorts of injuries you might sustain from a faulty product include:

• A broken arm caused by falling off a defective ladder
• Poisoning caused by contaminated food bought in a shop
• Burns caused by a electrical equipment breaking or catching fire
• Scarring caused by contaminated cosmetics

You can also make a claim if you are injured by a service provider, such as a beautician or hairdresser.

There are usually four main reasons why products may be faulty:

• A manufacturer failing to recall a product they know is faulty
• Poor design of a product
• Contamination during manufacturing
• Failure to display sufficient warning on a product

Manufacturers can’t escape liability just by putting a term in a contract.

Ensure you keep the faulty product or photographs of the faulty product and any documents relating to your claim, such as packaging, instructions and importantly purchase receipts.

What Clients say

This was a major class action involving a vast number of claims therefore must have taken a lot of organisation, which was extremely well handled in my case.
