Your Lawyers emissions action

Your Lawyers is a leading consumer action firm when it comes to emissions group actions. You may have heard or seen the term “dieselgate” over the past few years discussed in the media, and the group actions that have stemmed from the issues are ongoing cases that are the result of these problems. You could be eligible to join a Your Lawyers emissions action today.

Certain car manufacturers have faced allegations of cheating emissions tests. Allegations include the use of software and devices that could make it appear as though the car was emitting less pollution than it actually does in usual driving conditions. If allegations are proven to be true, this means that people may have been lied to, and that the cars sold to them may actually have not been meeting pollution laws and regulations. As a result of the scandals and allegations, thousands of vehicle models have had to be recalled and some have had to receive software updates. Because of this, people affected by these recalls could be entitled to financial compensation if allegations of cheating and breaking laws are proven to be correct.

There are currently multiple group actions that are ongoing against dozens of carmakers. These emission actions concern huge companies that include Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Vauxhall, and Volkswagen. Some of these actions are different to others in terms of the nature of the allegations that they are facing, and some are still in a period of early investigations. However, if you have been potentially affected by one of the many recalls and emissions issues that have arisen due to the scandals, you may be able to pursue a claim, and we are here to help.

No Win, No Fee emissions claims for compensation

As the firm that initiated High Court proceedings against Volkswagen in January 2016, we are still fighting to ensure that as many victims of possible car emissions scandals can recover the compensation they could be entitled to. The list of carmakers suspected of emissions issues has grown significantly longer since 2015, when the Volkswagen “dieselgate” scandal first hit the headlines. There may be millions of affected car owners in the UK alone, all of whom could be eligible for our No Win, No Fee emissions representation.

When Volkswagen was first accused of manipulating diesel engines to cheat emissions tests, we immediately suspected that this was just the tip of the iceberg. Since then, we have initiated actions against carmakers including Porsche, Mercedes, and Nissan & Renault, and we are taking on claims against dozens of other high-profile carmakers also. As advocates of consumer rights, we want to make sure that any alleged deceit is rooted out, and that any potentially affected customers receive the compensation they could be entitled to claim.

Decreasing vehicle emissions saves lives

The link between decreasing vehicle emissions and more lives being saved by preventable illnesses and afflictions is obvious. This is another reason as to why any alleged cheating of emissions regulations must be investigated, and any carmaker found to be breaking the rules must be punished.

Consumers who have been caught up in the various emissions scandals here in the UK can be eligible to join a group action for justice. The purpose of this can be to pursue compensation from the carmaker if owners have been misled, as the law can entitle this. Taking such action can act as a form of justice for any affected owners and former owners, and it can also serve as additional punishments for the offenders.

You can find out if you are eligible to start an emissions compensation case here now.

Emissions are dangerous – legal action is important

We are now over six years on from the breaking news that shook the world, when the original Volkswagen “dieselgate” scandal hit the headlines. Given that emissions are dangerous, news of their alleged behaviour had a huge impact across the globe and on the transport industry on the whole.

Right from the start, in September 2015 when news of the scandal broke, we decided to take action there and then. We recognised straight away just how serious this was, and the massive impact that it would have here in the UK. That is why we immediately started taking claims for compensation forward so we could take legal action for what had been going on. If we were not the first firm to formally accept No Win, No Fee legal cases, we were certainly one of them. When others were just registering details and unsure about what to do, we took legal action right away.

It has been a long fight, and it is far from over. And it is an incredibly important fight for many reasons also.

Nissan and Porsche face allegations over false emissions information

Media outlets have reported that Nissan and Porsche have been facing allegations over allegedly providing false emissions information in South Korea.

As leading pioneers of justice for emissions scandals here in the UK, this seems to be yet another story where the governments and regulators are looking into emissions problems over diesel vehicles. Whilst carmakers continue to strongly deny that they have done anything wrong, more and more evidence keeps mounting up, and more and more legal actions are being initiated.

This latest action in South Korea is not the first, and will probably not be the last.

Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis exhaust gas emissions: findings in South Korea

There has been a finding reportedly made in South Korea in relation to Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis exhaust gas emissions being “rigged”, the media is reporting.

Thousands of vehicles are said to be affected for models of the two brands. Fines could now be issued, and mandatory recalls may also be initiated.

Although this is a story from another continent, it serves as an important reminder as to how the emissions issues are far from over. A great deal of work still needs to be done to get to the bottom of the allegations that dozens of carmakers are facing.

Why our emissions group actions are important

Our emissions group actions are important for a number of reasons, both in terms of punishments for alleged breaches of the law and how this can impact us all, and in terms of justice for consumers.

We are more aware than ever when it comes to the climate emergency and the global challenges we face when it comes to our planet and our environment. Emissions laws and regulations are in place for very good and very important reasons, so any situation where carmakers have breached the law should be met with full and proper punishment.

This is what we want to achieve as part of our emissions class actions, as well as justice for victims who have been affected from a consumer perspective which is what we can achieve within the confines of the law.

Are thermal windows being abused to cheat emissions?

Right now, there are lots of questions being asked of multiple carmakers as to whether so-called “thermal windows” are being used as a loophole to cheat emissions regulations.

The idea that carmakers could be so brazen as to cheat emissions regulations first came into the limelight in 2015 when the original Volkswagen “dieselgate” scandal hit the headlines. Over the last six years, dozens more vehicle manufacturers have been scrutinised and have faced similar allegations of cheating.

Whilst carmakers strongly deny that they have done anything wrong, there is evidence that could suggest not all is above board. Your Lawyers – The Car Emissions Lawyers – as pioneers of High Court action against VW in 2016, has vowed to leave no stone unturned in efforts to get to the bottom of the allegations made. As part of our legal actions where we represent thousands of people for emissions compensation claims, we are looking into whether thermal windows are being abused.

A reminder as to why air pollution is serious

Air pollution is serious, and we were reminded why when, in the first ruling of its kind, air pollution was listed as a cause of death for Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, a nine-year-old girl who tragically passed away due to an asthma attack in 2013. The Coroner’s court reportedly ruled that air pollution “made a material contribution” to her death, disproving an initial 2014 ruling that named “acute respiratory failure” as the cause of death.

The landmark verdict was notable for clean air campaigners who have long recognised the serious issues of pollution at the core of London’s air problems. In fact, it is a nationwide issue of social injustice, with some research indicating that polluted air is significantly more concentrated in Britain’s most deprived areas.

The case of Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah clearly demonstrates how ignorance can cause pollution problems to develop unchecked, with fatal consequences. At The Car Emissions Lawyers, we have spent years fighting to hold car manufacturers to account for their alleged violations of emissions regulations, so we are all too familiar with attempts by people in positions of power to get away with dangerous levels of pollutant production.

Allegations of “defeat devices” in Mercedes vehicles

Fresh allegations of “defeat devices” in Mercedes vehicles are being reported as the ongoing emissions scandals continue to hit the headlines.

We have been representing clients for emissions cases since the very beginning in 2015, and we were the first firm in England and Wales to take VW to the High Court in January 2016. Since then, we have launched dozens of actions against more carmakers as we continue to investigate the numerous allegations that manufacturers are facing.

These fresh allegations come out from Germany and add to those that Daimler/Mercedes, and others, are already facing.

Volvo Emissions Compensation Claims

Since the Volkswagen “dieselgate” scandal hit the headlines in 2015, many of the major carmakers have come under suspicion regarding the use of allegedly illegal software to cheat emissions tests. The allegations against Volkswagen surrounded the alleged installation of defeat devices in diesel vehicles in order to disguise the excessive production of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, and litigation has since proven that a number of allegations have been founded. Volvo is one of the companies we are also investigating, as allegations may mean that the affected owners could be eligible to make Volvo emissions compensation claims, if allegations are proven to be founded.

As pioneers of diesel emissions litigation in England and Wales, we were one of the first firms to bring claims against Volkswagen on behalf of our clients, and we played a role in initiating High Court proceedings against the manufacturer in early 2016. We want to ensure that any car manufacturers who may be responsible for allegedly cheating emissions are held to account, which is why we are taking on several group actions.

To ensure that as many people as possible can access the justice they deserve, we are offering No Win, No Fee compensation claims to all eligible claimants. Carmakers continue to strongly deny claims being made, so we intend to get to the bottom of the investigations at hand.
