LEGAL STATUS OF THE CONSUMER IN THE ROMANO-GERMANIC AND ANGLO-SAXON LEGAL SYSTEMS

Abstract

Everyone, at least once in their lives, has purchased a certain product for use, which makes literally all people around the world consumers.  A consumer is an individual who wishes to purchase, has purchased or uses goods, works and services for personal purposes unrelated to their business activities. The reason why a consumer is not only a person who has already purchased a product and uses it, but also a person who is just about to do so, is that from the moment such a person is interested in some purchase, he already has the right to receive full and accurate information about it.
