Consumer Law covers contract, tort, consumer credit, and consumer safety. Each of these areas has seen huge changes in the ways business is done, largely as a result of changing technology, enabling people to buy goods and services in new ways, including via the internet. That technology can, in itself, be the cause of difficulties, where it goes wrong, or where suppliers have inadequate systems to deal with customer. Both suppliers and consumers need advice on how to deal with the problems that arise.
This fourth edition has, therefore, been updated to include:
- developments such as the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999, and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999
- changes in consumer safety law, particularly the regulations concerning general product safety
- changes in civil procedure as a result of the Woolf Reforms - the book includes procedural notes relating to litigation
- the influence of the European Union, particularly consumer protection for distance selling contracts.
