The apartment burned down because of the miners!
A familiar headline from the news? We’ll tell you whose responsibility it is in our new section#LeoPravo
What lawyers say:
The situation may be ambiguous: it all depends on the conditions specified in the agreement between the parties.
In legal practice, responsibility is distributed as follows:
✔️ if the breakdown is caused by a factory defect, the manufacturer or supplier is responsible;
✔️ if the reason is a violation of operating conditions, the owner of the equipment is responsible;
✔️ if the fire is related to the electrical networks of the premises, the landlord may be liable.
In practice, it is important to pre-fix in the contract the distribution of responsibilities and operating conditions. This can reduce legal risks and speed up proceedings in case of an emergency.
