Washington Seat Belt Injury Attorneys

If you were involved in an auto accident and suffered serious injuries due to seat belt failure, contact an experienced Seattle seat belt failure lawyer at Teller & Associates. At times, auto manufacturers equip vehicles with dangerous or faulty seat belts which cause serious personal injuries. These auto makers may be held liable for injuries or fatalities that their vehicles and auto parts cause. If you have been injured as the result of seat belt failure, please contact an experienced Washington seat belt failure attorney at Teller & Associates to discuss your legal rights.

In the past three decades, there have been nationwide campaigns to promote the use of seat belts by drivers and passengers of all ages to prevent serious injuries and death. Although the use of seat belts has been promoted very strongly, the safety restraint systems may not be as effective as the public thinks at keeping motor vehicle passengers safe. In many instances, manufacturers and automakers knowingly use cheap or faulty materials when constructing seat belts, therefore putting many people at risk for serious bodily injuries if an accident occurs and the seatbelt buckle unlatches.

In the event of an auto accident, seat belt failure and faulty seat belts may result in a variety of serious injuries, including:

• Bone fractures
• Brain injury
• Concussions
• Contusions
• Death
• Disfigurement
• Head injury
• Internal organ damage
• Paralysis
• Paraplegia
• Spinal cord injury

Unfortunately, seat belts are not as safe as the general public has been taught to believe, and if they are faulty or defective they may actually cause serious injuries. Some seat belt injuries may be caused by broken seat belt buckles, false latching, shoulder strap defects, and seat belt retractor failure.
