Oklahoma has enacted laws requiring drivers and front-seat passengers to wear seat belts, which have helped reduce brain injuries and spinal cord injuries resulting from auto accidents. Many times the failure to wear a seat belt is cited as the cause or contributing factor for injury.
Malfunctioning safety equipment, however, can cause more damage than the accident itself. Seat belts that fail to restrain a passenger or driver properly, that are defective, or have been compromised by poor workmanship can lead to organ damage or internal bleeding or other injuries requiring surgery.
If you or a loved one has been injured because of a defective seat belt, you may be entitled to compensation under a product liability claim. The Law Offices of Jeff Martin helps clients pursue the full compensation allowed under law for their suffering and injuries.
