You are already now at risk of missing out unless you get things moving without delay.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Emissions cause harm to human health<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Emissions can cause harm to human health which is exactly why there are strict regulations in place for managing emissions that are polluted by vehicles. If such regulations were not in place, more damage to our environment and people\u2019s lives could ensue.<\/p>\n<p>The issue that has primarily arisen from the \u201cDieselgate\u201d scandals is that far more emissions were being polluted than originally thought due to regulations being broken. As such, estimates in relation to any harm to human health and the environment could have been grossly inaccurate because so much more pollutants were actually causing more damage than originally thought.<\/p>\n<p>This is a really serious matter. Any breach of laws that are in place to protect people can be a serious matter, and the emissions scandals involved millions of vehicles across the world polluting far more than they were supposed to. It is easy to see how damaging this could be.<\/p>\n<p>Some scientists estimated that thousands of people may have lost their lives prematurely as a result of the additional emissions that have been unaccounted for that were related to \u201cDieselgate\u201d scandals.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Our fight for emissions justice<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our fight for emissions justice is about making sure that consumers affected are able to access some form of justice by way of compensation claims. As Leading Consumer Action Lawyers, this is the way in which we can pursue legal cases on behalf of people, using English law to help consumers affected. It would be great if we could also directly help people in respect of any damage and harm to human health and the environment, but this is not within our remit. However, compensation actions we pursue can serve as an additional punishment to carmakers involved in emissions scandals given that it will hit them where it hurts: that is, in the pocket.<\/p>\n<p>We have been at the heart of the fight for emissions justice since the beginning when the \u201cDieselgate\u201d scandals first emerged in the media in 2015. We represent thousands of people engaged in compensation claims against dozens of vehicle manufacturers, representing eligible clients on a No Win, No Fee basis. A huge number of people settled claims against Volkswagen last year, and we expect others will follow suit.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Start your claim now \u2013 time is running out!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you have yet to start your emissions claim for compensation, you should do so as fast as you possibly can because time is running out. Our deadlines are due to be falling imminently, and the last thing you want to do is lose out on the potential ability to claim thousands of pounds because you failed to file your claim in time.<\/p>\n<p>It is incredibly risky even leaving it too late because we may not have time to gather all the information documentation from you to be able to lodge your claim properly. Even now we would say that you are at serious risk of missing out \u2013 do not delay any further and do all you can to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caremissionslawyers.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>start your emissions compensation claim now here using a quick and simple process.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u201cDieselgate\u201d emissions scandals have undoubtedly caused harm to human health and the environment as a result of additional NOx being polluted due to breaches of emissions regulations.
