Johnson & Johnson talc compensation claims in the UK
If you or someone you know has been potentially affected by Johnson and Johnson talc issues then we may be able to pursue a claim for compensation for you now on a No Win, No Fee basis.
Talc products have, for quite some time, been linked to potential asbestos exposure as a result of the close proximity where the two compounds are found. The allegations are that pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson may have allegedly known about cross-contamination, but may have covered up the matter or failed to deal with it. Whilst they firmly dispute the allegations that have been made, some compensation actions have settled in the US on the basis that people may have been exposed to asbestos when using talc products.

We will take a brief look at the headings in terms of the areas of concern, and give our expert take on things.
In terms of action for justice, we remind people that we can represent victims of harm caused by products on a No Win, No Fee basis.
The Gatwick drone incident raises legal questions
The Gatwick drone incident that has brought one of the UK’s biggest airports to a complete standstill this week raises big legal questions.
We’ve written before about the use of smart technology and how it can be dangerous. Although the Gatwick drones appear to be high-tech and are being used as part of what appears to be a deliberate ploy, everyday drones can be dangerous. It’s those drones that can be easily bought online or on the high street that raise the legal questions as well.
If something happens, where’s the liability? Where’s the insurance? What do we need to do to ensure people are protected?
