Nashville Mechanical Problem Car Accidents

Attorneys Assisting Nashville Victims of Car Collisions

Sometimes driving safely is not enough to prevent drivers from being involved in collisions. If a driver’s vehicle has a mechanical defect due to the vehicle being poorly manufactured, a collision can seem to be out of one’s hands and inevitable. However, many mechanical problems in vehicles are the result of the driver’s improper maintenance or neglect of the vehicle. Regardless of whether the liability lies with the manufacturer of the vehicle or the owner of the vehicle, victims of mechanical problem car accidents can sustain dire injuries. If you or a loved has been injured in an auto collision caused by mechanical problems, you should contact one of the Nashville car accident lawyers at Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz. With more than 30 lawyers and over 120 support staff members, we are the largest plaintiff’s personal injury law firm based in Tennessee.

Manufacturer or Owner? Establishing Liability for a Mechanical Problem Car Accident

If the collision was the result of the other driver’s negligence, such as speeding or failing to properly maintain his or her vehicle, then you may be able to seek damages against the other driver. In order to recover damages for your injuries and losses, you will need to establish the defendant’s negligence, which can be done by proving that the other driver owed you a duty of reasonable care, breached said duty, and caused you to become injured as a result.

However, if the defendant upheld his duty of reasonable care, you may still be able to recover damages by maintaining a product liability cause of action against the company that sold or manufactured the vehicle or defective part. Going down that route will likely require an expert to perform a physical inspection of the car in order to prove the claim. In some cases, both the product manufacturer and the at-fault driver may be held liable. It never hurts in these cases to have someone on your side to help you navigate through the legal complexities and process.

After being involved in an auto collision in Davidson County, you should seek medical attention if you sustained injuries. Nashville General Hospital, located at 1818 Albion Street, Nashville, TN 37208, is one of the many medical facilities in the Nashville area that injured people receive medical treatment. Having your injuries documented by medical professionals is a great way to validate your claim and increase your likelihood of being awarded compensatory damages. A skilled car accident attorney in the Nashville area will be able to investigate your accident and help you identify theories of recovery that may apply to your case. This will help ensure that you are fully compensated for everything you have been through.
