Automotive Defects and Car Accident Cases

Aggressive Attorneys for Automotive Defect and Car Accident Injury Cases

Kansas City - Nationwide


Automotive manufacturers have the duty to design cars and trucks that are safe. When a vehicle is carelessly and improperly designed or manufactured, a collision in that vehicle can cause life-changing, catastrophic injuries. It can even be fatal.

At Stueve Siegel Hanson, in Kansas City and San Diego, and The Henning Law Firm, we have successfully brought many auto defect cases in places across the United States. Our lawyers personally and thoroughly investigate each and every case. We start by examining the scene of the accident, inspecting the cars or trucks involved, interviewing witnesses, consulting with engineering, scientific, inspection and reconstruction experts and gathering all documentation necessary to present your case to a jury in the most quick and efficient manner possible.

Our 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 6 million automobile accidents, causing more than 3 million injuries and over 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 treatment, as well as serious and on-going 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.

Our lawyers' experience comes from some of the top schools, federal clerkships and largest law firms in the United States. We are proof that not all big law firm lawyers are at the big firms. We have the experience and resources necessary to aggressively pursue your case if you are the victim of an auto defect injury or car accident injury.
