Frequently asked questions

I bought a defective product. What are my rights?
For new goods, the legal warranty is 3 years. You can demand repair or replacement and, where that is impossible or inadequate, a price reduction or contract termination with a refund.
The seller says the warranty does not cover the defect. Now what?
Warranty refusals are often unlawful — the seller is liable for any lack of conformity that appears within the warranty period. We assess the case and press the claim with the seller, arbitration centres or the courts.
Is it worth pursuing small amounts?
Yes: for consumer disputes up to €5,000 there are justices of the peace and consumer arbitration centres — fast, low-cost forums. In many cases, a formal demand letter from a lawyer resolves the matter without proceedings.
