What are the primary uses for airbags?

Airbags in your car are designed to offer protection from hard surfaces and reduce impact forces during accidents - while decreasing injuries during collisions.

What could happen if airbags fail to deploy?

• Increased Injuries: Airbag failure may increase injuries such as broken bones, head trauma, and internal damage.
• Potential Fatalities: Airbag failure could potentially result in fatalities.
• Financial Burden: Accident injuries often incur medical costs, lost wages, and rehabilitation expenses that quickly add up.

Who should be held liable when an airbag fails to deploy?

Liability may be difficult to establish in these instances due to multiple parties potentially sharing responsibility:

• Manufacturers
• Vehicle Designers
• Maintenance Providers

Why hiring a personal injury attorney could be beneficial?

• Experience: Attorneys are highly skilled professionals in law who know exactly how best to navigate the legal system.
• Evidence Collection: Attorneys have the resources to gather evidence such as witness accounts or accident reports.
• Negotiation Skills: Attorneys have the negotiation expertise required to gain fair compensation from insurers.

When should an attorney be hired?

Immediate consultation with a personal injury attorney following an accident is important to gathering evidence and building your case - they can provide insight into all available legal solutions while helping with claim processes.

What criteria must be considered in choosing an effective attorney?

• Experience: Choose an attorney with expertise in product liability or personal injury litigation cases.
