Experienced Morgantown Auto Defects Injury Attorneys
Every component of an automobile sold to the American public is manufactured and installed under the strictest product safety guidelines. An automotive part or system that fails at highway speeds can result in a catastrophic motor vehicle accident causing serious injuries or death.
Automotive components are often manufactured by corporations under subcontract to large automotive manufacturers. The primary contractor, Ford, for instance, is responsible for overseeing the crashworthiness and safety of the product but the manufacturer and subcontractors for smaller individual components may share liability for damages in the event of a failure that caused injury or death. Investigating the cause of the failure and the responsibility for quality control requires knowledge of manufacturing laws and insurance policies that cover manufacturing corporations.

Car Accident Injuries
Jeff Robinette was hired by a young woman who had sustained permanent injuries to her foot due to an auto collision. The insurance company offered such a small amount and dealt with her in such a dismissive manner that the treatment of her case amounted to bad faith on the insurance company’s part. Jeff was able to obtain a substantial settlement which allowed this young woman and her husband to pay medical bills, buy a car and a home, and start building a future together.
Drunk Driver
While driving his car, our client was hit by a drunk driver which injured his shoulder so severely that three surgeries were required. The insurance company haggled over the value of the claim, initially giving a low-ball offer. Jeff Robinette was able to force the insurance company to pay all insurance available for this claim.
Motorcycle Accident
A police cruiser was attempting to make a U-turn on a four-lane highway and collided with our client’s motorcycle. The trooper had failed to follow the rules of the road by making an unsafe or prohibited lane change and was found to have operated his vehicle in an “erratic, careless, or reckless” manner.
As a result of the trooper’s negligent driving, our client sustained bodily injuries which required emergency room treatment and subsequent physical therapy and prescription medication to recover from his injuries.
The Robinette Legal Group, PLLC was able to recover an ample settlement to cover our client’s medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
