Accident solicitor - faulty goods claims

Our team of no win, no fee solicitors have a good track record in handling consumer claims, such as faulty goods claims arising from accidents caused by faulty products.

UK and EU law states that you can make consumer claims for faulty goods compensation if you sustain injuries as a result of using something that is defective or dangerous. This can be any manner of product or device that is unsafe to use or that contains harmful substances.

Faulty goods claims can be brought against toys, a vehicle, an electrical product, cosmetics, food or drink and even furniture (some sofas were recently alleged to cause skin damage). In dangerous goods claims, the manufacturer is liable not only if it supplies a product that is faulty, but also if an article carries insufficient warning labels therefore potentially posing a danger to the user.

If you have been injured by a faulty product and the manufacturer or supplier is negligent, we, as experienced consumer lawyers, can take action against them and claim faulty goods compensation for your injuries.

Consumer law states that you may have a case for a faulty goods compensation claim even if the product in question was not sold to you - our consumer lawyers can advise.
Faulty good claims, as with all consumer claims where liability is in question, can be quite difficult to prove and you need specialist consumer lawyers to handle your faulty goods claims. Our consumer lawyers also work on a no win - no fee basis.

Product liability - consumer claims case study:

Mrs B from Middlesex is set to receive an award of faulty goods compensation after one of our solicitors successfully secured an admission of liability in respect of her consumer claims. Mrs B had purchased a plastic carton of Heinz Microwave Chicken Soup. After she had heated it in the microwave and then sipped it, she began choking and bleeding from the mouth. Her husband took her to hospital where she was examined and x-rayed and it became apparent that a piece of metal had become lodged in her throat. The foreign object had come from the carton of soup. The object was dislodged and Mrs B was paid £3000 in compensation.

Mrs B's solicitor commented: "We can assist claimants in a variety of situations, such as when, as an innocent purchaser they are injured by goods intended for public consumption. The last thing Mrs B expected when sipping her soup was to end up with a piece of metal lodged in her throat. It was a very distressing incident for her".
