LIN’s Product Liability, Certification & Recall Group has experience in successfully handling various legal issues (consumer claims, crisis and regulatory responses, product recalls, etc.) that may arise in the manufacturing, design and distribution stages of products across the manufacturing industry, including automobiles, batteries, semiconductors, chemicals, aircraft, consumer goods, plants, medical devices and cosmetics. Based on the know-how and expertise accumulated through this experience, we provide optimized responses to various related disputes, including product liability litigation (domestic disputes involving products of foreign manufacturers and overseas disputes involving products of domestic manufacturers) and consumer-related disputes, such as dispute mediation by the Korean Consumer Agency or consumer class actions.
 
In Korea, the Product Liability Act was amended in response to the humidifier sterilizer incident and has been in effect since April 2018, introducing a punitive damages system and adding a presumption of causation clause to ease the burden of proof for consumers while strengthening the liability of manufacturers. Furthermore, as the Fourth Industrial Revolution has brought about a major transformation and the number of knowledge-based products such as data, software, AI, and pharmaceuticals has increased, there has been a movement in the EU to strengthen the liability of manufacturers for highly technical products and expand the scope of targets and damages.
 
Amidst this global trend of consumer protection, LIN’s Product Liability, Certification & Recall Group is doing its best to provide one-stop service for all manufacturing products, including industry certifications, product recall process, and product labelling under various laws and regulations, with expert lawyers and patent attorneys specialized in various fields such as chemistry, engineering, pharmaceuticals, and telecommunications, as well as advisors from the Product Safety Policy Bureau of The Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS), who have extensive expertise and practical experience.
 
LIN’s Product Liability, Certification & Recall Group promises to continue to grow with our clients while meeting their legal service needs.
