Simmons & Simmons

In the second episode of our podcast series on Product Liability, partners Jacques-Antoine Robert and David Kidman explore the intriguing question of whether anxiety damage can be indemnified as a singular claim. They navigate through the contrasting landscapes of UK and French law, revealing a flexible French approach that recognises anxiety damage even without physical injury, and a more rigid UK stance that requires a recognised psychiatric disorder.
