I’m Rob Rosenthal with AskTheLawyers.com, and this is an AskTheLawyers.com legal brief.

What are you supposed to do after a car accident? Typically you work with your insurance company, along with the other driver’s, possibly even filing a lawsuit against them to get compensation for your injuries and losses.

But what if other parties were also responsible for the crash, like maybe defective brakes or an airbag that failed to deploy?

Brian Chase is an injury lawyer in California who handles auto defect cases. He says that manufacturers and suppliers could also share liability for defective auto parts, anything from roofs that collapse in rollovers to exploding airbags and seatbelts that fail to stay buckled. He says that if you think there’s a chance a defective auto part played a role in your injury, seek out a lawyer with relevant experience. He says:

“You need to hire an attorney that specializes in auto defect cases. I can’t tell you how many times over the last 20 plus years, I’ve had clients come to me, and one or more lawyers told them they had no case.”

He also recommends finding a lawyer who takes cases to trial. He says:

“When the insurance industry knows you don’t try cases, you’re not going to maximize the value of that case for client.”
