What is an auto defect lawsuit?

With regard to the difference between an auto accident case and an auto defect case, its very important to have an experienced lawyer that does auto defect cases to figure out the difference. If you're in an auto accident case, you typically are only going to be able to recover whatever the applicable insurance policy limits are on the person that caused the accident. That could be as low as $15,000. However, if an experienced lawyer is looking at the case they may note that a defect in the vehicle actually caused the injury and then you should have an auto products liability case and recover the full amount of damages you're entitled to.

Are accidents from auto defects common?

Many times in auto accidents either the cause of the accident or the enhanced injury occurs as the result of the defective or faulty design of the vehicle itself. Unfortunately, most of the time that people are involved in single car accidents they have no idea the vehicle cause contributed to it. Many of these cases are never pursued. They never end up in the hands of lawyers. The thing to look for is, in SUVs, high center of gravity , the ability of the vehicle to roll over easily, such as the 15 passenger vans, failure of seatbelts, roof fall in event the vehicle rolls over, defective air bag - the air bag deploys but doesn't deploy at the appropriate time, protecting their occupant. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachussets for over three decades.

To recover money, do I need to sue after an auto accident?

Most people that have been injured in an automobile accident do not technically sue. If they are injured, they make a claim and there is a difference between a claim and a lawsuit.

Why do auto defects still happen in cars today?

The reason auto defects still happen is corporations that manufacture automobiles continuosly put profit over safety. Its been a constant theme for decades. Even with all the advancements that we see, the technological advancements with regard to manufacturing, manufacturers make profits on cars when they are using a 20 or 30 year old platform. Even though you have a new body on the car, and it looks like you have a new car, often times behind the skin of that vehicle you're driving a 30 year old car. Hi my name's Brian Chase.

Should I handle my own auto accident claim in California?

People who are involved in auto accidents can handle their own claims. It’s kind of like, can you handle your own injury? Well if your injury is a scratched leg, you can put some antiseptic on it and a band-aid. But if you got a broken leg that needs to be set, I don’t think that’s the kind you want to handle yourself. Same thing with auto accidents – the more serious the accident, the more you’re going to need professional help. I’m John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar Chase Law Firm.

Is a rollover accident caused by an auto defect?

Things to look for if you're involved in a rollover accident in California are not just the fact that you were in a rollover. Look for things such as roof crash. In other words, did the roof on the vehicle push in. Oftentimes, that can cause fatal to catastrophic injury to a person's head or neck. So look at the roof. See if the roof is deformed down towards the dashboard. Also, if your loved one was ejected from the vehicle, people are going to assume they weren't wearing their seatbelt. If you know they were a habitual seatbelt user, then they probably did have their seatbelt on, and they've got a seatbelt that's defective, and unlatched during the crash. You need an experienced attorney to know what to look for in the vehicle to prove or disprove seatbelt usage. Hi, my name's Brian Chase. I'm a partner at Bisnar Chase in Newport Beach, California.

What's the secret to getting a big auto accident settlement?

The way that insurance companies value, out of the accident cases is they look at the damage to the vehicles, and then they look at the damage to the person, and then they look at the quality of the attorney that you represent in the person. You take these three things together and that’s going to either result in a, mediocre solemn or its going to get you a good solemn. The more property damage, the more the insurance company is going to believes you have been hurt. The more the medical bills that you have, the more that represents the type of injuries you had. And the better your attorney, the harder they are going to work, to get to you a great solemn. I am Jeff Roberts, of the Roberts Law Firm.

What's the #1 mistake people make after an auto accident?

The biggest mistake people make in handling their own personal injury claim and dealing with the insurance adjuster is believing that the adjuster is on your side. Insurance adjusters are trained to limit claim payouts. Insurance adjusters get promotions and bonuses based upon how low they can settle claims for.

Can I sue if the other driver has no insurance?

You also have to consider the ability to pay of the person who caused the accident. If the person who causes your auto accident has no insurance, has no assets, no matter how big your injury is, your claim is worth nothing. If they've got a fifteen thousand dollar policy, and you have a big injury, then probably your claim is going to be worth fifteen thousand dollars. If someone has a million dollar policy, and you have a claim that's worth twenty-five thousand dollars, your claim is worth twenty-five thousand dollars. So the value of an auto accident injury claim is based upon what you lost, how big your injury is, and the ability of the wrongdoer to pay.

That's your name, the date of the accident, and briefly where it occurred. After that, hang up. This is your opportunity to go over the case with an attorney. Find out if you need an attorney.

The most common kind of automobile accident injury is a whiplash because the majority of auto accidents are rear end accidents. You get a whiplash from the spine being stretched and snapped.

What are some common child safety hazards in cars?

With respect to automobile safety, there are particular hazards that apply to children. They have to be restrained. Many times there are defective seat belts that upon impact release and the child is ejected from the vehicle. Or they are sitting in a child safety seat, that's inadequately designed or a manufacturing flaw, that will allow the child to be ejected from the vehicle. Once a child is ejected from a vehicle, the seriousness of the injuries increase dramatically because the child does not have the safety of being contained within the vehicle itself. These injures many times devastating. If they don't cause death they can cause spinal cord injury, brain injury or paralysis. I'm attorney Tom Kiley.

But, still every once in a while, we come across one that is fully designed or is defective and it allows the child to be in the vehicle basically unrestrained and many times ejected with serious consequences. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Can I sue if I was involved in a rollover accident?

If you or a loved one has been injured in either a single vehicle accident or a multiple vehicle accident involving the rollover of your vehicle, especially if there is roof crush or there is ejection of an occupant who is known to regularly wear a seatbelt, there may be responsibility on the part of the manufacturer of the vehicle. It's key to get in the hands of an experienced automobile product liability lawyer, a crash worthiness lawyer as it's known in the trade, who can guide you through the legal rights that you may have. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Are accidents from tire defects still common?

Tire defects are still a problem on roads in the United States today. They're hard to prevent against because tread separation just happens sometimes spontaneously. And no inspection of the tire by a lay person would really reveal that there's a risk of something happening. Once the tire fails, the vehicle is susceptible to going off the road, rolling over and causing serious, catastrophic injury to occupants or bystanders. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Why are large passenger vans prone to accidents?

The most dangerous vehicle in my experience on the road today is surprising to most people. It's a fifteen passenger van. It has a high center of gravity and once it's loaded up with people and equipment, its handling characteristics change and in bad weather or emergency maneuvers, it can fishtail and roll over. When it rolls over, because its structure is very weak, the roof collapses. When this happens, the injuries can be devastating especially with fifteen people. You have brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis and death. Most people don't realize it - these vans are out they're. They're used by schools, sports teams, hotels, livery services. People ride in them every day and they're completely unaware of the magnitude of the injuries that can occur in one of these vans. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

What do I look for when hiring a product liability lawyer?

The right product liability attorney can seek justice for you. He will know how to use our laws and our civil justice system to hold companies that don’t care, accountable. A manufacturer who manufactures or distributes a product that’s defective, that presents a hazard or a significant risk of injury or death can be held accountable under our laws for manufacturing and selling such a product. This can involve a design defect, a manufacturing defect, or simply a failure to warn or instruct the user of the product, such as a parent, of the hazards involved if it’s not used appropriately. I’m attorney Tom Kiley. I’ve been representing the seriously injured, and their families, in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Why do insurance companies limit car accident pay-outs?

Insurance companies limit payouts because that's where their profit is. You got to remember that when you pay your auto insurance premium only two or three percent of that dollar that you pay in premium goes to profit. However, every dollar saved on your claim is a dollar of profit. So therefore, it's 33 times more profitable for the insurance company to save a dollar on your claim than it is to get a dollar in premium payments. They are in the business to make money. They are in the truth, justice, fairness in American way business. They are for-profit business, and they will make their profit wherever they can.

A Chapter Seven bankruptcy is a bankruptcy which has a goal to discharge or wipe out all of your unsecured debt, meaning credit card debt, doctors' bills, oil bills, hospital bills, things that aren't secured by collateral that you want to keep such as a home loan or an auto. But you also have an alternative, a choice, if you have a car that you want to get rid of, you can get rid of the car, and get rid of that debt.

What's the biggest mistake made in a car accident claim?

The Biggest mistake an accident victim can make in Massachusetts, in dealing with an insurance adjuster, is to think that, that adjuster is there friend or is on their side. They are not. They're trained to be friendly but they are also trained to pay as little as possible on your claim. If they can get you to make a statement that questions liability in your case, or to make a statement that diminishes your damages, they will do it. They're reviewed, they're trained and that's they're objective plain and simple.

What do I do if I'm in a car accident and my child was injured?

The first thing a parent should do if they're involved in an accident and their child is injured, obviously, is to tend to the child. Once they asses the situation they should immediately call the police. It's very important. The police will come, they will document the position of the vehicles, perhaps cite the at fault driver. They will takes names and statements from witnesses. They perhaps will do an accident reconstruction. This is all very important, ultimately, for an attorney representing a parent and/or a child that's in a serious automobile accident. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Should I represent myself in a car accident case?

Tom Kiley: If you're in a car accident and you have minor injuries, you can represent yourself against the insurance company, but the deck is stacked against you. Insurance adjusters are trained to pay as little as possible on claims. And although you may be bright and be a good negotiator; you don't have a point of reference with respect to the value of your claim. That's why you need an experienced attorny. He knows how to deal with the insurance company. He knows how to put your damages together and ensure that you get full compensation for the injuries that you've sustained. I'm attorny Tom Kiley.

Are car accident lawsuits common in Massachusetts?

"Many people who haven't been in car accidents think that if that happened to them, they're just going to call their insurance agent and that their car is going to be fixed, their medical bills are going to be paid, they're going to be paid for their time out of work, and they're going to be paid for the pain and suffering of this horrible experience that they've had. That's not the case. Insurance companies, they're in business to make a profit. They make a profit by paying as little as possible on your claim. The adjusters are trained to do this. Even with an experienced attorney involved, they still resist paying full value on claims. That's why many times these cases require being taken to court to hold the insurance company accountable to ensure that they pay full value for what happened to you.

Although people that are involved in minor automobile accidents can perhaps handle their claim on their own, if you are in a motorcycle accident it's recommended that you get an attorney.

What is a big mistake made with motorcycle accident claims?

The number one mistake that I see in victims of motorcycle accidents that try to handle it themselves is talking to the adjustor from the insurance company, believing the adjustor is their friend or is going to help them, giving them statements without the advice of counsel and many times making big mistakes that prevent them from getting a full recovery. The insurance adjustor is not your friend. He's trained to act like your friend. His objective is to pay you as little money as possible. I'm attorney Tom Kiley.

But again, it may be limited, by the insurance policy that’s held by the car that hit you. I’m attorney Tom Kiley.

If you’re involved in accident th-, that occurred at an intersection, the city or state may be responsible for that. There are a lot of intersections that are dangerous throughout the State of California for a whole variety of reasons. Sometimes a lack of a cross walk; lack of signage meaning you should have a stop sign, four-way stop, two-way stop; lack of intersection signals; um, a lack of lighting, there are a lot of things that cities are aware of that need to be at certain intersections that are not in place. And violation often times have their own policies and procedures and design guidelines, and there’s recourse to that. If you find yourself involved in an intersection collision, get a reputable attorney in California that specializes in that kind of work.

Are lawsuits from car accidents on the rise in New York?

Car accident lawsuits are actually decreasing in New York state statically from the court administration statistics. And, that's probably a good thing, it means, because in the simple fender bender, there's less injuries because of restraint systems and air bags.

With increased traffic you're going to have increased motor vehicles accidents.

Nonetheless, the increase is not statistically significant for the last five to ten years. And additionally, thankfully, motor vehicles are getting safer with airbags and safety restraint systems.

What's the #1 mistake people make after a car accident in NY?

The mistake the individual that's involved in a car accident makes if they've sustained injuries, is they believe that they will be treated fairly by the insurance carrier. You're not in their good hands, you're not their good neighbor. They're a big business that's trying to make as much as possible by collecting as much as possible in premiums and paying out as little as possible in claims. So, they don't offer you fair compensation unless a skilled attorney gets involved.

Are some car accident injuries more serious than they appear?

Normally in a car accident in New York state if somebody breaks their ankle or wrist or has a bad cut that results in scarring, they know they're badly injured and they get an attorney immediately. However, by the simple physics of a car accident, you're grabbing on to the steering wheel, you tense up, you may get a shoulder injury or a knee injury that is not diagnosed immediately, then you think it's going to go away and it doesn't go away, and eventually you need surgery for it. And then you're looking for a fair compensation because you're disabled as a result of this injury that you thought was going to go away and it didn't go away, and you're not going to get a fair compensation because it wasn't diagnosed at the time of the accident so you're better off going to a doctor giving your complaints to them immediately so it could be diagnosed. Hopefully it will be treated considerably with therapy and you'll get better. But if it's not, you need that doctor immediately and you need an attorney to get your fair compensation for the injuries you've sustained in that car accident in New York. I'm Mitchell Proner.

Who's the most common victim of a dog attack in California?

Speaking from experience I can tell you that children are most likely to be attacked by a dog. I myself was attacked by a dog when I was a child. Predominantly what happens is another child takes their family dog out to the park and doesn't realize that the dog can become agitated around children. It's a very dangerous situation, but children are the ones that are most susceptible to dog attacks, particularly because they are at the height of the dog.

Why representing dog bite cases are personal for me.

When I was a child, I was bitten by a dog and unfortunately my parents did not hire an attorney who specialized in dog bite cases. And they did not receive the recovery that I should have received for that case. It's one of the reasons that when I represent people that are in dog bite cases, particularly children, I fight to recover maximum recovery for them. For their injures, for their pain cause there is a great deal of pain associated with dog bites. And for scaring, particularly if it's going to be long term scaring.
