Product safety and liability

Our specialist teams of lawyers advise on all aspects of product safety and liability from compliance obligations, responding to a product safety issue including reporting and responding to a regulatory investigation including product recall events, dispute resolution, supply chain claims and claims for injury and damage to property.

Product liability matters are technically complex, often cross-jurisdictional and the financial implications and reputational damage of getting it wrong can be significant.

We can work with clients to ensure clients they have the relevant protections and procedures in place prior to product launch to respond to any issues which might arise, can pressure test our clients to ensure they are ready in the event of a recall or serious safety issue and skilfully handle any litigation which ensues. When such issues do arise, we handle them with a sharp focus upon wider reputational concerns and pay particular attention to potential proliferation of claims, guaranteeing clients feel supported throughout. We work collaboratively with clients to ensure we gather the requisite evidence including expert input to enable us to deliver clear advice and ensure the best overall outcome.
