content

There are considerable liability risks for manufacturers, dealers and importers of medical devices. You may therefore find yourself exposed to claims from patients (based on product liability) and claims from contractual partners (based on contractual liability for damages or due to joint and several product liability). For example, the following questions arise: What risks does the supplier assume? What should be considered when importing medical devices into the EU? Which risks are best avoided by contract and which by insurance? These and other topics will be addressed during the seminar.
