A Service of Stueve Siegel Hanson LLP.
Nobody plans for a catastrophic injury or death caused by a vehicular accident. The lawyers at Stueve Siegel Hanson LLP help clients in overcoming such tragedies on a daily basis.

Automotive manufacturers have a duty to design and manufacture safe vehicles. This means that every car and truck must be designed and manufactured to be reasonably safe in any foreseeable collision and accident. While most vehicles are safely designed and manufactured, some are carelessly and improperly designed and manufactured and can, therefore, lead to catastrophic injury and death. When a car or truck does not perform as safely as one might reasonably expect, and someone is catastrophically injured or killed as a result of a design or manufacturing flaw, the automobile manufacturer may be liable.

Our thorough approach has helped us achieve success in a wide range of auto defect cases:
  • SUV Rollover Defects
  • Roof Crush Defects
  • Seatbelt Defects
  • Window Defects
  • Tire Defects
  • Wheel Defects
  • Air Bag Defects
  • Fuel Tank Defects
  • Fuel Fed Fire Defects
  • General Crashworthiness Defects
Every year throughout this country, statistics show that there are more than six million automobile accidents, causing more than three million injuries and more than 40,000 deaths.  Too often, the types of defects listed above cause or contribute to cause those very injuries and deaths. Either through their own testing, or through other generally available research and data in the industry, automotive manufacturers are aware of the serious safety concerns.  The catastrophic injuries that occur as the result of manufacturing and design decisions can require a lifetime of medical treatments, as well as serious and ongoing pain and suffering. 

Our teams of dedicated trial lawyers have the experience and legal knowledge to hold automotive manufacturers and negligent drivers liable for such injuries and deaths. In every automobile accident resulting in catastrophic injury or death, it is imperative that your attorneys timely investigate the facts, review the scene of the accident and the vehicle, and consult with skilled automotive engineers to determine whether a design or manufacturing defect contributed to the accident. Accordingly, it is critical that you contact an attorney in a timely manner to investigate the accident and protect your rights.

If you or a loved one has been catastrophically injured or killed in an automobile accident of any kind, please feel free to contact Todd Hilton at (800) 714-0360, or email him at hilton@stuevesiegel.com to discuss your case.
