Any legal peeps here? lawyers/solicitors not sure which i need!!

this is funny im gonna watch this

24hr care for a dog, could you claim for a dog carer 24hrs a day till hes better

if youd left an electric drill on the floor and the dog had caught its side on it would you sue black and decker?

accidents happen,
if i was putting up something in the garden and it looked iffy, id either take it back or put a shorter bolt in,

im sorry, and i feel for your dog, ive always had dogs and love em, but this is why 5hits getting so expensive everbodies looking for a little extra, no ones happy, and no accepts that sometimes and accident is an accident.

companies must be paying out compensation all over te place these days

Na I agree with the OP here. If a company builds something and sells it it should be right, safe and in this case clearly it was not. Shouldn't be up to the customer to finalise the design for them to make it safe.

And I think the OP was right to complain and demand a level of compensation for the inconvieneance of having to go to the vets etc.

But I think the offer or vets bills paid for, the company removing the tramopline and refunding it and the £200 compensation is very generous and the correct level of recompense.

Glad this brings amusement to you. id prefere it if you kept your thoughts to yourself.

Guys, I don't think the OP was looking for our opinions as to whether we think she is right or not, I think she was looking for proper advice from someone who has some idea about these kind of things. Not just speculation or armchair opinions.

My advice is that you assemble something and it has a big bolt sticking out, then do something about it. Don't wait for an injury then ask how much you can get for it.

I consider my advice proper (morally) and improper (legally).

And where in the OP did she say she had just left it?

OP can you clear this up for us please? Had you assembled it and just left it or were you still in the process of assembling it when the dog caught itself?

We know...but how else would we spend the working day?

Meh, fair point! lol!

It's a forum MBK...you should expect everyone to chuck in their opinions!

Have you agreed to accept the £200? I don't think you can put in a claim once you've taken that money.

Thank you, eventually someone who actually read my post correctly.

Yes i can, as first stated we were still in the process of putting it together. but this doesnt mean that what was put together was incorrect, all instructions were followed correctly.
