An improperly designed or manufactured product can lead to devastating injuries. In addition to the cases listed below, we are currently investigating automobiles that do not properly protect occupants involved in collisions (rollovers, roof crush, defective seat belts, air-bags), consumer products that malfunction or lack important safeguards and other products that we use in our society that have been rushed to market without adequate design or warning considerations.

(a) T____: D____ T____ was an employee of a manufacturing plant. The plant operated with compressed air, and the air compressor was manufactured, installed and maintained by Ingersoll-Rand. A service mechanic for Ingersoll-Rand had performed some repairs on the air compressor, and neglected to turn on one of the key safety devices. Shortly thereafter, the air compressor exploded like a cast iron bomb - sending cast iron shrapnel through cinder block walls and shredding D____ T____'s left side of his body. The products liability suit against Ingersoll-Rand was settled for $8,500,000.00** by Bill and his former law firm.

(b) N____: L____ N____ was a part-time farmer. He did not know that his hay baler had a dangerous pinch point that had mangled dozens of people. The manufacturer failed to guard the pinch point with a simple piece of metal. One afternoon, L____'s glove strap became caught in the pinch point, leading to a disfiguring injury to his hand. The manufacturer settled the case for a substantial, confidential sum after a mediation.

(c) C____: K____ C____ and her two children were returning home from Arizona, driving their Honda sport utility vehicle. The vehicle had Dueler tires, manufactured by Bridgestone. Shortly before the trip, one of the tires had been taken from the spare tire position on the back of the vehicle and put on the ground - that tire shredded while K____ was driving on the highway, causing her to lose control and roll the vehicle. Although K____ was restrained, she struck her head during the roll of the vehicle, and has suffered significant brain injury as a result. Case settled for a confidential sum.

(d) P____: Mr. P____ owned a 1991 Nissan Pathfinder, and was driving home one evening when he was rear-ended. Although the rear-end impact was not terribly significant, the driver seat collapsed backwards on Mr. P____, throwing him into the back seat and eventually into the roof of the vehicle. As a result, Mr. P____ suffered from a broken neck which turned him into a paraplegic. He struggled for nine months to regain some means of independence and control, but ultimately died of an infection as a result of the paraplegia. Case settled for a confidential sum.

(e) P____: B____ P____ was a heavy equipment operator at a construction site, operating a vibrating roller to smooth out a sand pad. Unbeknownst to B____, the owner of the roller had been experiencing electrical problems and had tried patchwork repairs with the roller; while B____ was driving, the machine malfunctioned - the distraction caused B____ to lose control and the vehicle rolled over. B____'s right leg was crushed and later amputated. This case is settled for a confidential sum.

(f) Mr. B____ was driving his SUV to El Paso to pick up his wife when the wheels slipped off the pavement. Mr. B____ over-corrected causing his vehicle to roll. The roof of the vehicle failed to protect the driver and sustained an unreasonable amount of crush causing a severe brain injury to the driver. The SUV's manufacturer was sued for failing to design a strong enough roof. The case settled for a confidential multi-million dollar sum.
