Automotive and Tire Defects

California Auto Product LiabilityPanish Shea & Boyle’s unique approach to car, truck and sport utility
and defective tire cases brings
maximum compensation to catastrophically injured clients.

Our client, a family severely burned after their car’s fuel tank ignited,
received a $4.9 billion dollar verdict against General Motors, the largest
product liability judgment in American judicial history.

The landmark case exemplifies the dedication and skill available to all
our automobile and tire defect clients.

PIONEERING TRIAL TECHNIQUES The Firm’s dedicated automotive legal team reenacts collisions
and rollovers of multi-passenger vans, SUVs and cars. Juries and judges
see how better designs could have prevented a victim’s paralysis,
brain damage or death. 

During trial, we simulate accidents and use life-sized examples and
models of failed tire belts and treads. This aids in explaining to
jurors how manufacturers could produce safer models but choose not
to. Our courtroom reenactments demonstrate precisely why seat belts
and air bags needlessly malfunction and senselessly blind and crush
our clients.

We locate leading automotive experts and industry whistleblowers
to help us expose automakers’ negligence in designing explosive fuel tanks and faulty braking systems.

Presenting persuasive, firsthand evidence of wrongdoing is a powerful
way to conduct a trial and reach juries. It requires significant effort
but produces greater results for the injured client.

FINANCIAL STRENGTH Most firms can’t afford the expense of gathering high caliber
customized trial evidence that automotive cases require. Panish Shea & Boyle can. 

After 30 years of defeating all the automotive giants – Ford, Honda,
Toyota, General Motors, Mercedes Benz, Chrysler, Goodrich, Goodyear,
Continental, Pirelli and Michelin – we’ve accumulated formidable financial
and intellectual resources.

Previous automotive case victories permit us to fund current cases.
As contingency fee attorneys, our clients do not bear upfront costs
or risks. We only receive a fee and recover our costs if there is
recovery for the victim. To referring attorneys, we pay the highest
referral fee permissible by law.

POWERFUL EXPERIENCE We are leaders in demanding safety and accountability from the
automotive industry. Our automotive and tire defect practice is a cornerstone of our firm-wide commitment to helping clients injured
by vehicles and products used daily. As lawyers, our profession demands
it. As members of the community, our belief in improving public safety
and saving lives compels us.
