Robert James Solicitors | Product Liability Claims

About

If you have been injured by a defective product, it is likely that the manufacturer, distributor, supplier or retailers will be held liable for any damage or your injuries.

The emphasis on the words "any damage" also means that it is not necessary to prove that you purchased the product, instead demonstrating that the product simply caused the damage or injury you allege.

Under the 1987 Consumer Protection Act there is a strict liability test imposing liability on the defendant if injury, damage or death was caused by a defective product.
