Product Liability | UK

Scotland

Product Liability encompasses legal claims that allow an injured party to recover financial compensation from the manufacturer or seller of a product. Examples include faulty appliances, emissions defeat devices, contaminated food and unsafe consumer products.

Firms may advise claimants in such cases or advise manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, retailers and others who make the product available to the public. 

We also accept litigation concerning pharmaceuticals and medical devices, though this is also covered separately in the Life Sciences section.
