Defective Products can give rise to injury and/or loss. For example, if you purchase a defective machine the defective machine may cause you an injury and it may also involve economic loss because the machine cannot perform the job for which it was purchased.
There is a certain overlap between defective product cases and the Sale of Goods and Supply of Services Act. However, in defective product cases the loss suffered can be far in excess of the price paid for the product. For example when someone receives a personal injury arising from of a defective product. It is not necessary to have actually purchased the product in order to sue. Non-purchasers are protected when they are foreseeable users of a product. Due to increased consumerism there has been a consequent increase in the number of defective product cases coming before the Courts. It is important with defective product cases that the product in question be examined if at all possible at the earliest opportunity and therefore you should not give up possession of this defective product to the person from whom you purchased until such time as the appropriate experts have examined it. If you think you may have been injured or suffered loss as a result of a defective product, please contact us for an immediate evaluation of your case. *In contentious business, a Solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement. |
