Hagood, Neumann & Huckeba LLP

Texas Defective Car Parts and Safety Component Claims

One of the most dangerous possessions anyone can own is an automobile--even assuming that everything works properly. Recent improvements in automotive engineering and safety standards have done much to improve crashworthiness and reduce the incidence of such hazards as exploding gas tanks in most cars, but some models remain safer than others.

If you have been seriously injured in an auto accident, contact the Texas personal injury attorneys at Hagood, Neumann & Huckeba, L.L.P.. As a matter of routine, we consider whether a defective car part might have played a role in causing the accident, or in making the injuries worse than they otherwise would have been. Our experience with both motor vehicle accident cases and defective products claims enables us to pursue your case in light of the possible manufacturing defects in such car systems and components as the following:

• Rollover stability
• Tire defects
• Glass window Car claims
• Seatbelts and airbags
• Child safety seats and restraints
• Structural impact resistance of doors, roofs, and side panels

In any car accident case involving a fuel-fed fire, we consider the possibility that a defective gas tank or improper fuel line design might have aggravated the resulting injuries. Because of the severity of extensive burn injuries, the ability to maintain a products liability claim in a vehicle fire case can make the critical difference between proving damages that cannot be collected and receiving full compensation for all of your present and future losses.

Texas Super Lawyers Gene Hagood and William Neumann represent victims of SUV rollovers, motorcycle accidents, single vehicle accidents, and any other automotive mishap where a defective component might have caused or aggravated the damage.
