With many years of experience in various types of personal injury cases, our solicitors are highly competent to help and support you when making product liability claims.
When we purchase items such as tech products, edibles, toys or vehicles, we trust that manufacturers have tested them properly to ensure they are safe.
However, damaged products can still make it to the market or even directly into our homes, exposing us to the risk of a major accident. Our product liability lawyers will support your claim for compensation if a defective product causes you harm.
Product liability cases have had a rapid increase.
Experiencing harm from defective products can be life-altering. Our professional product liability attorneys have successfully made it possible to get compensation for many clients who became ill or injured from poor-quality drugs and medicines causing disease, faulty electrical or medical devices, defective sports equipment and malfunctioning automobiles.
Our product liability solicitors negotiate with the insurance companies on behalf of our clients to get them the maximum compensation possible. If anyone is harmed by a defective product, the product liability insurance covers the cost of compensation. In the UK, product insurance ensures that businesses are held accountable for the safety of their products.
Most of our product liability claims are handled on a no-win no-fee basis, meaning no initial fee is required, if the case is not successful.
If you have any questions regarding making a compensation claim for injuries with a faulty product, call us on 0800 970 2727 or contact us online for a free consultation.
We will take the time to talk you through the case, offering professional advice through careful and expert exploration of your options.
Product Liability Claims – Important Information
The amount of compensation you could receive for an accident due to a defective product depends on many factors:
- Loss of income – present, and future, if you are no longer able to work
- Medical and tour expenses that you have incurred
- Necessary adjustments to your house, if required
- Requirements for mobility aids or professional gear
- Your aches and suffering or any ongoing troubles
Call us at any time for a free consultation regarding defective product-related issues. We will discuss your situation, advise whether your claim might be feasible, and explain our no-win no no-fee arrangement.
Afterwards, we move through three main stages:
- First, a detailed investigation is conducted regarding the extent of your personal injury or illness and the losses you have sustained
- The compensation amount depends on the severity of your injuries, pain and suffering, medical costs, and ability to work. We’ll present this to your adversary, who can agree or dispute the claim.
- If your opponent admits product liability, we will secure compensation for you. If not, then we move on to issuing court proceedings, but this doesn’t always mean going to trial. We shall be with you every step of the way, fighting for justice in your case while guiding and supporting you through it.
Most of our cases run on a no-win no-fee basis. This means there is no financial risk to you. We will consider several funding options with you, including legal expenses insurance (LEI) or trade union policy. If no-win no-fee is the best option for you, we will walk you through it with no initial cost to pay. You will only have to pay if we are successful in your case. The rest of our fees are deducted from the compensation settlement.
Sarah Jenkins: Trust, complexion, complications
28-year-old Sarah Jenkins works as an advertising executive and she got excited to try out a new “all-natural,” facial serum, claiming to rejuvenate the skin. This product promoted itself as non-irritating and suitable for all types of skins and was manufactured by a brand that Sarah relied upon for years.
Within hours of applying the serum, Sarah’s face started to sear and tingle. The next morning, she woke up with pink bumps all over her face and painful blisters. Alarmed by this, she was rushed to the emergency room, where doctors diagnosed her with a severe allergic reaction and chemical burns.
This incident left Sarah with facial scarring and hyperpigmentation. She was made to take a very long leave from work for not only medical treatment purposes but also for her self-confidence and emotional chaos attributed to the change in appearance. Her self-esteem dropped, and she began to suffer from anxiety and depression.
Our product liability lawyers understood that the incident would have an intense effect on the rest of Sarah’s life physically, psychologically, emotionally, and financially. Being in her condition after the incident changed her life in so many ways. Their expertise and compassionate approach gave Sarah the support and confidence to get through the difficult times.
For Sarah, the time she spent with Claim Time’s legal team was life changing.
“Their understanding of what I had gone through really comforted me,” she said. They did much more than engage with my case, they showed empathy toward the emotional burden and the financial strain. Those payments made a huge difference.
The technical expertise of the Claim Time’s legal team was an added advantage for her.
