Indianapolis Mechanical Defect Attorney

If you have been injured in an automobile accident and the cause of the accident can be traced back to a mechanical defect or malfunction, it may be possible to bring a product liability suit against the manufacturer, wholesaler, distributor, and/or retailer. Call an Indianapolis product liability attorney from Hankey Marks & Crider at (317) 634-8565 for more information.

What is Product Liability?

The claims most often associated with these types of cases are negligence, strict liability, and breach of warranty. In most product liability cases, claims are not based on negligence, but on strict liability. Strict liability focuses on the product itself, stating that a manufacturer is responsible for all products produced, even if the manufacturer did not demonstrate any negligent behavior.

The mechanical defect accident attorneys of Hankey Marks & Crider can provide valuable wisdom and assistance to help you understand if your case fits into one of these categories.

Injuries from Defective Automobiles

If you are the victim of an automobile injury resulting from a mechanical defect or malfunction, you can pursue compensation for problems such as:

• Seat Belt Defects
• Brake Malfunction
• Tire Defects
• Airbag Defects
• Child Car Seat Defects

If you have experienced any or all of these, the mechanical defect accident attorneys can help you determine if you have a legitimate claim. You will need to prove that there was a design defect, a manufacturing defect, or that there was a breach of warranty in order to prove that a defective or malfunctioning product caused your accident.
