Product Liability and Product Safety
The Practice
Our Product Liability and Product Safety Group has unrivalled experience in large-scale, multi-party product liability litigation across a wide range of areas including tobacco, telecommunications, blood products, pharmaceuticals, food and drink. We have acted in the defence of the largest product liability actions to have thus far come before the Irish Courts.
The Group draws on unique expertise from throughout the firm and incorporates lawyers from its Life Sciences Group and lawyers specialising in litigation, intellectual property, environmental, regulatory and healthcare law. It offers clients in all sectors comprehensive assistance in fulfilling their business objectives.
We provide comprehensive and strategic product liability advice, both at the pre-litigation stage and in non-contentious cases, We advise clients in relation to risk management, product recall, crisis management strategies, specialist insurance advice and other related issues. Managing complex product liability litigation requires an overall strategy that is sensitive not only to the litigation environment and objectives but also to the commercial, regulatory and public relations concerns that inevitably accompany such situations.
Responding quickly and effectively to any potential product safety issue, including where necessary the implementation of recall procedures, is part of the unique service we offer our clients. Such situations can be potentially expensive, unpredictable, complex and often very press-sensitive. Protecting our clients' reputation and financial interests is our first concern.
