Auto Accident Lawyers for Those Injured by Air Bags in or Near Tampa, Clearwater, St Petersburg, Orlando, Pasco & Central Florida
Since their installation became mandatory for all new vehicles in 1998, air bags have played a significant role in reducing car accident fatalities. But as all auto accident lawyers know, there is an unfortunate side effect to this safety improvement: air bag injuries. Air bags deploy at 100 to 200 mph, and if a driver or passenger is sitting less than 10 inches from the deployment site, they could sustain serious injuries from the blow. Some people have even died as a result of air bag impact. If you’ve been injured by an air bag in Tampa, Clearwater, Pasco County, Sarasota, or elsewhere in central Florida, there’s a possibility that you are entitled to an insurance settlement and auto accident lawyers may be able to help you obtain it.
Some of the compensation you may be entitled to includes reimbursement for:
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Dental work
Along with these types of compensations, an attorney, like any of those at Kennedy Law Group in Tampa, may also be able to seek compensation for property damage to your vehicle or possessions in your vehicle that were damaged in the crash. While it may seem like these reimbursements are rightly yours, it’s important to remember that insurance companies may fight hard to avoid paying them. That’s when experienced auto accident lawyers become helpful. They know how insurance companies work and exactly what you are entitled to, so they’re prepared to fight for your rights.
If you’ve been in an accident of any kind, whether your air bag deployed or not, contact Kennedy Law Group today. One of our auto accident lawyers will review your case to determine whether or not we can help you. We’re happy to serve clients anywhere in central Florida, from Lakeland to Clearwater and elsewhere nearby.
