Wrongful Death

We represented the adult children and mother of a 65-year-old woman who was fatally injured in a motor vehicle collision at an intersection in rural Pima County. Investigation, discovery, and expert evaluations established that the intersection was dangerous and that Pima County knew of the dangers involved and failed to take action to improve safety. The death was caused by the combined fault of Pima County and the driver of the other car.

Product Liability

Our client suffered an amputation of his right hand, a minor traumatic brain injury (TBI), and other injuries, when he was ejected from his SUV during a rollover on I 10. The SUV was defectively designed so that the passengers were subject to an extreme risk of rollover, and was unreasonably dangerous because it performed in an unsafe manner when doing foreseeable turning maneuvers. It was further alleged that the SUV was unreasonably dangerous in that it was not equipped with a sufficient occupant protection system.
