Dangerous and Defective Products Cause Accidents
Laredo Tire Blowout Accident Lawyers
Defective and dangerous products are bought by the unsuspecting public everyday. The makers of these products are liable for injuries people receive from defective products whether the manufacturer knew of the defect when it was sold or not. Defects often occur in the design or in the manufacturing process of the product. Some common defective products include tires, SUV’s that rollover easily, seatbelt failures, car roof crush, seat backs, and air bag non-deployment among many others. Lawsuits are usually filed by the person injured by the product or a relative of someone who was killed by a defective product. If you feel you may have a claim against a manufacturer for a faulty or defective product seek the counsel of Laredo auto accident injury attorneys immediately. The cases are often highly technical and need the skill of Laredo auto accident injury attorney to insure you get the fairest settlement possible for your claim.
The publicity of the Bridgestone /Firestone fiasco several years ago
made many people aware of the dangers of defective tires. Tire tread can
separate, or blow out causing certain vehicles such as SUV’s to rollover
or lose control causing serious accidents. What many do not know is that
several tire manufacturers are guilty of making these same types of
defective tires. Laredo auto accident injury attorneys can help you
determine the fault of the manufacturer in tire defect cases. At Carabin
and Shaw PC, we look at several factors in tire defect cases, such as
proper adhesion techniques of the manufacturer, foreign objects in the
tire, and the inclusion of an extra nylon safety belt in the tire to
help prevent tread separation. If you or someone you love has been in an
accident due to a blow out or tire defect you need the help of skilled
Laredo auto accident injury attorneys. The attorneys at Carabin &
Shaw, PC are experienced in all aspects of tire defect and product
liability cases. Contact our offices today to discuss your situation.
Tires are not the only areas of product liability in motor vehicles.
Manufacturers are responsible for the safety performance of their
vehicles even if they claim they have taken the necessary steps to
assure safety. With the guidance of skilled Laredo auto accident
injury attorneys manufacturer liability can be determined for your case.
In product liability cases the claimant need not prove the carelessness
of the manufacturer rather only the faultiness of the product in
question. Three conditions must exist to prove the liability of the
manufacturer for the accident:
• An unreasonably dangerous defect in the vehicle caused injury to you
as a passenger or driver.
• The defect caused injury to you while the vehicle was being used in a
way that it was intended to be used.
• The vehicle has not been substantially altered from its original
condition when sold.
Laredo auto accident injury attorneys will look at these three
areas in you case to determine if you have the right to a motor vehicle
defect claim. The attorneys at Carabin & Shaw are experienced in tire
defect and motor vehicle defect claims. Call our offices today to
discuss your case. We work on a contingent fee basis, which means you
