Faulty product compensation - how it gets calculated
Faulty product compensation is calculated differently depending on your individual circumstances. In most cases, a monetary value is placed on the gap between your predicted life path before the injury that resulted from a faulty product, and your actual life path since. Shine Lawyers can help you every step of the way and get you the compensation you need following your faulty product injury.
