A product liability compensation claim can be made by a victim, or by and adult on behalf of a child casualty for anything from minor to catastrophic personal injury.
Product liability cases not only protect consumers, but can improve the quality of health and safety procedures used within companies around the UK.
During the designing stage, manufacture, and shipment of an item it is important that a company makes sure that the product is safe, made to the best possible quality, and not damaged before it reaches the shops.
A good instruction manual should help reduce the risk of an accident occurring once the item has been purchased, as well as protecting the firm from a range of compensation claims which could be made, but if the product is not manufactured to the level which published product testing standards require it is unlikely that the inclusion of an instruction manual will save the company from legal action if someone sustains and injury.
However, it is important to be aware that no product liability claim could be made against a company if the product passed all the safety tests, had clear instructions on correct use but was being used inappropriately by the customer for a task it had not been made to accomplish.
It is very likely that in that case a casualty would be seen as liable for the accident.
Only non-fault or part-fault accidents could result in the claimant receiving a settlement for their pain, suffering and any loss of earnings caused by the injury.
Product liability compensation for non or part-fault incident
If you or a loved one has suffered a personal injury from a product, you could be eligible to make a claim against the company responsible for the design or manufacture of the item.
