How Long Will My Products Liability Case Take is a post from: BestAttorney.com - BISNAR | CHASE California Personal Injury Lawyers

Wendy was wearing her seatbelt properly in the passenger seat of her 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe and her daughter, Brittney, was driving, when they were rear-ended on an off-ramp from State Route 99 in Modesto, California. Upon impact, Wendy's seatback collapsed, causing her to slip out from under her seatbelt harness and shoulder restraint, and submarine toward the rear of the vehicle. Her head collided with the rear passenger compartment, resulting in numerous skull fractures, seizures, and catastrophic permanent brain injury. Brittney also suffered severe injuries.

GMC was Aware of Defective Seatbacks, Seatbelts

General Motors Corporation knew that certain models of their vehicles could not withstand a modest rear-end impact. In the case of Wendy Yates, the car that hit her Tahoe was traveling only approximately 30 mph. If passengers are using the safety and restraining features, such as seatbelts, properly, catastrophic injuries should not be the result of a low-force rear-end impact unless components in the vehicle are defective.

Further, Wendy slipped out from her properly secured seatbelt and shoulder restraints when her seatback collapsed. General Motors was aware that the seatbelt in their Tahoe model would malfunction, should the Tahoe be impacted in a rear-end collision. The defective seat belt system failed to prevent Wendy from suffering severe personal injuries.

Under FMVSS 301, erected in 1976 to ensure the safety of passengers in vehicles sold in the U.S., all automakers selling automobiles in the U.S. must document, film, or videotape testing of rear-end barrier impact crashes. In spite knowing how these components performed in videotaped testing, GM continued to manufacture defective seatbacks and seatbelts and did so to prevent loss of income and bad press.

Wendy Yates seeks compensation for damages for herself, her daughter and her husband for past, present, and future medical expenses, past loss of earnings, loss of earning capacity, general damage for future suffering and loss of consortium for enduring hardship as a result of injuries.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of the deceased woman. I offer my deepest sympathies to everyone who knew and loved her. I also wish the injured victim the very best for a quick and complete recovery. Please keep this seriously injured victim in your prayers.

According to California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were six fatalities and 108 injuries involving car accidents in Barstow in 2007. During the same year, 308 deaths and 9,920 personal injuries were reported in San Bernardino County as a result of car accidents.

Based on this news report, it appears that someone was trying to make an unsafe lane change on the freeway causing this fatal rollover car crash. California Vehicle Code section 21658 states: "Whenever any roadway has been divided into two or more clearly marked lanes for traffic in one direction the following rules apply: (a) A vehicle shall be driven as nearly as practical entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from the lane until such movement can be made with reasonable safety."

If I were representing the family of the victims in this rollover accident case, I would look into whether an inherent auto product defect or design defect contributed to the instability of the Toyota causing it to tip over, as the driver attempted to overcorrect. If that was the case then the auto maker could be held liable for the accident and injuries. An experienced auto products liability attorney will be able to determine what exactly caused this car crash and the injuries. The best personal injury lawyers will always offer a free and comprehensive initial consultation to injured victims and their families.

Consumers are urged to immediately stop using DEWALT Clipped Head Framing Nailers with model number D51825, and DEWALT Full Round Head Framing Nailers with model number D51850, which were sold throughout the United States between January 2008 and September 2008 for approximately $280.

In August 2008, DEWALT recalled about 14,000 nail guns that ejected nails even when the lock-off was in the locked position. Owners of these recalled nailers have been asked to contact the company for instructions on receiving a free replacement bump action trigger. Those seeking more information may call DEWALT at 1-877-437-7181 or visit their Web site at www.DEWALT.com.

Nail gun injuries have increasingly become a problem over the last five years. According to recent investigation conducted by the Sacramento Bee newspaper, 42,000 people-- more than 100 a day-- show up at U.S. hospital emergency departments annually with nail gun injuries. Treating these injuries reportedly costs the United States at least $338 million a year in emergency medical care, rehabilitation and workers' compensation, according to statistics from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Also, California companies reported 1,890 nail gun injuries in on-the-job accidents leading to missed work days from 2003 to 2006, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

If you or a loved one has suffered serious injuries or death as a result of nail gun injuries from these or other defective products, please contact experienced personal injury attorneys to find out more information about your legal rights and options.

In any product liability claim, it is also important to preserve the product that caused the injury so it can be examined by an expert for product defects, malfunctions and other evidence. If the product is determined to be defective, you could receive compensation from the defective product manufacturer to cover medical expenses, loss of wages and other related damages.

This product defect recall apparently involves Bunn Single Pod Brewers. The models included in this defective product recall are MCP and MCA.

The devices, which were made in the United States, were sold by Internet retailers, department and hardware stores nationwide between August 2004 and March 2009 for about $300. Consumers are advised to stop using the defective products immediately and contact the company to obtain two replacement pod drawers. If you would like more information about this product recall, please contact Bunn-O-Matic at 1-800-741-3405.

While such household products and appliances are usually useful and harmless, there are products such as this one that are defectively made or designed, which pose a serious physical threat or health hazard to you and your family. Dangerous electrical appliances such as defective microwaves, washing machines, coffee makers, toasters or heaters can leave you vulnerable to electrocution injuries, electrical burns or burn injuries, which can even turn fatal. A small fire caused by a defective electrical appliance or any other poorly made or designed item can quickly turn into a devastating fire causing serious personal injuries, death and property damage.

Manufacturers of household products, just like any other product manufacturer, have the duty to put quality products on the market for consumers. If you have been personally injured because of a defective or malfunctioning product, filing a product liability lawsuit is one way to hold these negligent parties liable. The best product defect attorneys will offer a free and comprehensive initial consultation to injured victims and their families.
