Make a faulty products claim for your personal injury

During the summer months, many Brits will bring out their garden furniture to spend their evenings outside enjoying the warm weather. Having bought a brand new patio table and chairs, few people will expect to have to make a faulty products claim. If a personal injury is sustained due to a fault with a product, you could make a compensation claim for your injuries.

In July 2010, high street retailer Wilkinson issued a product recall after a safety issue was raised over a folding wooden patio and chairs set. Given the warm weather experienced in July 2010, the product fault may have affected hundreds of consumers who could potentially have suffered personal injuries from the product.

Although details of the safety issue surrounding the furniture was not given, folding furniture is often the cause of personal injuries. Fingers trapped in the hinge of a folding mechanism is the most common injury associated with these types of products and can cause finger amputation in young children.

There is also the danger of the furniture collapsing should the folding mechanism fail. This could lead to injuries caused by items on the table falling on a person or from the furniture itself falling on someone.

Retailers have a duty to ensure that the products they sell are not faulty and do not pose a personal injury threat to customers. If items are faulty and subsequently cause injury to a customer, a personal injury claim can be made against the retailer.

If you have been affected by a personal injury caused by a faulty product that you have recently purchased, you could be eligible to make a personal injury claim.
