A woman successfully sued LG for nearly 150,000 after an LG K8 phone ignited a fire in her home. The incident occurred on 31 October 2018, while the couple was asleep, with two phones and a laptop charging. The judge determined the phone was defective, ruling it did not meet safety standards expected by consumers. The woman sustained injuries due to smoke inhalation, impacting her mental health and work. The court ruled in her favor, holding LG accountable for the incident.
Sheriff Robert Fife found that the LG phone, supplied to Denise Parks, was the source of the fire, ruling that it was defective and did not meet expected safety standards.
Denise Parks sustained injury and sustained smoke inhalation, leading to anxiety and panic attacks, after a fire started in her home due to the charging LG phone.
