EU Product Liability

EU Product Liability refers to the legal responsibility of manufacturers and sellers for harm caused by defective products. In the European Union, if a product is unsafe or does not meet safety standards, the injured party can seek compensation for damages without needing to prove negligence. This means that if a product causes injury or damage, the manufacturer or seller can be held liable, ensuring consumer protection. The aim is to encourage companies to maintain high safety standards and to provide consumers with a remedy for losses resulting from unsafe products.
