Car Defects Can Injure And Kill Motorists
Last updated on April 25, 2022
Negligent drivers aren’t always the only liable parties in car accident claims. In many cases, a car defect may have caused or contributed to the accident and injuries.
These defects can include:
- Defective seat belts
- Defective air bags
- Poor crashworthiness
- Poor rollover strength
If you were injured in a car accident, how does this affect you? It means that in addition to seeking financial compensation from the negligent driver who caused the accident, you may also be able to seek recovery from the car and/or parts manufacturer.
However, with multiple layers of liability come additional legal complexities. That is why it is important to work with an established and experienced law firm in your legal claim.
A skilled team of attorneys can help you not only prove that a car defect contributed to the crash/injuries, but also maximize the compensation you receive from all responsible parties.

Challenges Of A Car Defects Claim
Car companies are huge corporations. They have in-house legal counsel, extensive resources and a seemingly endless supply of money to defend against your claim. That is why in order to bring a successful car defect claim, your injuries need to be significant. If they are not, the amount of money spent on litigation would exceed the financial recovery.
However, for those who have been seriously injured, our law firm will not stop fighting until every single legal avenue has been exhausted and we have secured the best possible compensation award for your injuries.
We are not intimidated by large corporations and have the experience and knowledge to go the distance in the complex legal claims. While many times victory is secured through settlement, we are fully prepared for a courtroom battle when necessary.
