It is important to address the dangerous levels of NOx that may have increased as a result of the “Dieselgate” scandals that have arisen from cheating emissions regulations.
Emissions regulations are in place to protect our health and to protect our environment, so any breaches of the law must be treated seriously, given the adverse impacts that can ensue. Our claims for emissions compensation are designed to not only punish offenders, but also to allow those embroiled in the scandals to recover damages as owners of affected vehicles.

No one can ignore the obvious fact that regulations aimed at reducing emissions are there to curtail dangerous levels of NOx harming human health and our environment. NOx is dangerous to human health and to our planet, which is why regulations are in place.
The regulations seek to reduce the damage as much as possible, and we would hope that vehicle manufacturers would innovate and develop to be able to meet the regulations in place. Unfortunately, the “Dieselgate” scandal revealed that some carmakers had opted to simply cheat the regulations in place by deploying technology that could amount to a defeat device instead. The result of this is that dangerous levels of NOx have been polluted above and beyond what was expected.
Given that the “Dieselgate” scandal has undoubtedly resulted in increased, dangerous levels of NOx being polluted across the world, our legal action for justice is important to serve as punishment for the offenders, and to allow victims affected to claim damages.
Companies are not above the law, and huge vehicle manufacturer corporations should not expect to be able to get away with breaking the law and cheating regulations lightly. Whilst some countries have pursued criminal cases and recovered millions from guilty carmakers, the UK government has not really done anything at all. This leaves it to us lawyers to fight private civil litigation cases where we can not only ensure punishment is served, but also ensure that owners are compensated. Ultimately, punishing corporations effectively is about hitting them where it hurts the most: which we all know is about hitting them in the pockets.
Anyone embroiled in the scandal who has been using vehicles that have been polluting far more than they should have been can be entitled to claim compensation. Any impact on their vehicle that is caused by defeat device technology being removed or switched off is a matter to be taken seriously as well.
If you own or lease, or previously owned or leased, a diesel vehicle over the last decade or so, you could be entitled to pursue an emissions claim for compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis.
