Navigating the intricate landscape of consumer protection laws internally can be a mighty challenge. Our attorneys are well-versed in product liability law in the Baltic states and international regulations. This ensures that your business remains compliant with all applicable laws.

Proactive Approach to Product Liability
Product liability claims can have a significant impact on your business's reputation and bottom line if you are held liable.
FORT's attorneys work proactively to minimise the risk of such claims. We do this by:
- Conducting thorough risk assessments;
- Advising on best practices for product design, manufacturing, and marketing;
- Providing legal expertise to help you identify potential pitfalls;
- Aid the implementation of strategies to mitigate liability.
