Bavarian Motor Works, better known as the world class car manufacturing conglomerate BMW, has been having some trouble of late. Their biggest monopolized market is in Germany. The U.S, though, follows as a close second. Laws pertaining to American citizens and their rights are very well defined all over America and as such, accident lawsuits, product liability, and negligence cases are always feared by companies.
Recalls
BMW has decided to recall about 350,000 of their cars from this country’s market, owing to a minor fault in their power braking and airbag’s system. BMW is quick to declare that they are making this move as a preemptive motion and no injuries or issues of any kind have been reported by their American users or customers. This gigantic recall includes the BMW 5 Series, 6 Series, and 7 Series cars with V8 and V12 engines, extending back to the year 2002.
Trust Sacrificed or Gained
A large company like BMW has a lot at stake in terms of its reputation in the international market. They would lose face if a series of accident lawyers launched lawsuits against them. An accident lawyer is the way to go for anyone facing such a product liability issue and any kind of personal injury due to the negligence or defective product issued by any company.
The Ultimate Goal
An accident attorney or indeed if there are many cases, a panel of accident attorneys may file on behalf of the injured party so as to garner maximum compensation in terms of punitive damages as well as pain and suffering damages. Most such cases fought by reputed accident lawyers may be settled for a substantial sum, out of court, based on a client’s discretion. If the matter does go to the court of law though, an experienced accident lawyer may be able to obtain for the client, millions of dollars in compensation and damages. This is probably after the client has faced some severe hardship in terms of a violent collision or accident.
Not Until Afterwards
Some of these attorneys work on a “No Win, No Fee” basis which means that the client pays the accident lawyer from the payoff that they receive and not a dime before that.
