What Compensation Could You Be Entitled To From A Defective Airbag Accident?

A wide range of damages can stem from a defective airbag accident and all of them could be reason for compensation in a court of law. Some of the most common damages which attorney Ronald Laba has secured compensation for clients include:

  • Medical bills and charges
  • Lost wages and earning potential
  • Pain and suffering

We have also secured compensation for these damages for family and loved ones of those who have died in defective airbag accidents.

The amount of compensation a victim can win depends on the severity of the accident and how much the defective airbag is to blame. We will work to ensure you receive as much compensation as possible based on the circumstances of your case.

As a starting point, you will want to confirm that your vehicle had airbags in it. All modern vehicles are legally required to have airbags, but older models of vehicles may not have them. In addition, all modern work and commercial vehicles should have airbags as well. Many modern vehicles actually have multiple airbags.

For a successful case, you will have to prove that a defective airbag was at fault in your accident. A skilled defective airbag accident attorney such as Ronald Laba can go over the information involved in your case to determine if your car had a defective airbag, but you can also consult www.safecar.gov to see recent recalls issued due to defective airbags.

You may wonder how something that is supposed to increase the safety of a vehicle and cause and accident and cause harm. While airbags do usually provide excellent protection in an accident and save lives, a number of actions can lead to an airbag causing an accident or inflicting damages upon a driver of passenger.

Some of the most-common issues which make airbags dangerous include:

  • An airbag which does not open upon impact
  • An airbag which opens for no probable cause, possibly due to faulty sensors
  • An airbag which explodes with harmful components such as metal of plastic shrapnel
  • An airbag which inflates more than it should or in an improper shape

A wide range of serious injuries can occur when an airbag malfunctions. Some injuries that are common from these kinds of accidents include head/neck/spinal injuries, lacerations, bone fractures, burns and injuries to the eyes and ears due to the location of most airbags. These injuries may sometimes be fatal.
