Product Liability
Our product liability specialists have advised and represented clients in many complex product liability matters across Australia.
We work closely with clients to manage the inherent liability risks associated with manufacturing and selling products and provide support and assistance in minimising clients' exposure to liability issues and the risk of class action litigation claims. We also act for clients who have suffered loss or damage as a result of the failure of companies to comply with the product liability legislation.
Our services include:
- Advising on compliance with product liability regimes and assisting clients to implement systems for ensuring compliance with these regimes;
- Reviewing information and disclaimers provided to consumers to ensure that they comply with product liability requirements;
- Representing clients in negotiations with the ACCC and other regulators;
- Acting for clients in disputes about product liability issues;
- Acting for clients in litigation arising from product liability claims.
