Driver error is the primary reason for most motor vehicle accidents, but data shows that around 2% of collisions are caused by the malfunctioning vehicles themselves; 2% may not sound like a lot, but that percentage represents around 50,000 crashes. Car manufacturers are responsible for testing their cars and ensuring that they meet safety and performance standards. If you live near St. Petersburg, and you have been injured in a crash because your brakes failed, your accelerator pedals got stuck, your airbag didn’t deploy, your seat belt snapped, your tire blew out, your roof caved in, your door didn’t open, or because of other defects, you are legally able to pursue monetary restitution for your injuries!

Recovering damages in an auto product liability claim can be extremely difficult for a few reasons, however. For one thing, vehicle manufacturers are large corporations with large, impressive, highly experienced legal teams. They have solid defenses in place to protect themselves against paying out settlements to victims, because doing so hurts their reputation and their financial interests. Another reason why it may be challenging to recover damages is because auto product liability can be hard to prove. You need a law firm on your side who is not intimidated by vehicle manufacturers or insurance companies, who has extensive trial experience and a winning track record, and who can investigate your accident in order to find convincing evidence! That law firm is The Florida Law Group. Our St. Petersburg auto product liability lawyers have recovered over $1 billion for injured victims. We are your top choice for quality representation! Call our St. Pete office today to schedule a FREE consultation and learn more about your legal options.

When a vehicle manufacturer was negligent, you shouldn’t have to pay for their carelessness, and you deserve the full amount required to treat your injuries. Trust our attorneys to advocate for your rights!

Your car isn’t supposed to be the reason you get into an accident, and it’s actually supposed to have reliable features that should protect you if you do. Being injured in a crash that was caused by a malfunctioning vehicle part is not only unfair and traumatic, but also extremely expensive. Depending on the extent of your injuries, you may have to pay for healthcare costs related to air or ambulatory transport, emergency room care, imaging tests like CT and X-rays, multiple surgeries, hospitalization, medical devices, medications, physical therapy, chiropractic care, deductibles, copays, counseling, and more. You may have to take weeks or months off of work to recover without pay, and you may be in intense pain for weeks or months. Sadly, some injuries may be permanent, requiring lifelong care. The total cost of treatment could easily add up to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars or more!

If you’re injured, trying to fight the manufacturer on your own can be frustrating and fruitless; they have little reason to pay attention to you or pay your claim. When you have a group of reputable attorneys on your side, you get an advantage in negotiations! Our St. Petersburg auto product liability lawyers have over 100 years of combined experience on our team. We know what maneuvers the manufacturer will try to use to discredit your claim, and we know how to handle those; we aren’t afraid of them, and we’re more than prepared to take your case to trial if necessary! Our goal is to get you the largest amount possible, because you deserve it. We’ll never let you settle for less than what your injuries are worth!

The Florida Law Group’s St. Petersburg auto product liability lawyers care deeply about justice and about making a positive impact on your life. We will do whatever it takes to help you, even beyond representing you well; if you need to find counseling, medical care, or financial assistance, we can take care of that too. We treat every single client like we would want our own family members to be treated if they found themselves in a similar situation. Our lawyers will listen to your story, answer your questions, explain your options, set clear expectations, and then aggressively pursue compensation! You can rely on us to give you the best chances at recovering a settlement.

Why should you choose The Florida Law Group to represent you when your car’s defect led to your injuries?

Many people who are facing mounting medical bills or who are out of work after this type of accident think that hiring an auto product liability attorney is a luxury they can’t afford, but this isn’t true! We believe everyone deserves justice, and that everyone deserves access to a good lawyer. That’s why The Florida Law Group offers our legal services on a contingency fee basis, meaning that if we do not get compensation for you, you do not have to pay our fees. If we do win, our fees are a percentage of the amount we recover. That means that we have a motive to win the largest settlement possible, and you can have peace of mind knowing that you are not taking any risk by hiring us!

The Florida Law Group’s services are not only affordable, but also distinguished. Our personal injury firm has been named the top 1% of law firms nationwide and in St. Petersburg by many prestigious legal organizations. Our lead attorney, Chris Limberopoulos, is a board certified civil trial specialist, a rare distinction. We have been recognized by Super Lawyers, Florida Super Lawyers, Avvo, The National Trial Lawyers Top 100, The Best Lawyers In America, The Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, and more. We have helped thousands of victims of manufacturer negligence get paid fairly for their injuries!

About The Florida Law Group’s St. Petersburg Presence

In 2021, The Florida Law Group was excited to open our St. Petersburg office, one of our now 11 locations around the state! Before that, we had been offering representation to victims in St. Pete via our Tampa office, but now we are closer and more accessible. Injured accident victims don’t have to travel out of the Pinellas Peninsula to meet with us. St. Petersburg is a vibrant, highly populated city (the 5th most crowded in the state), which means that drivers here are statistically more likely to experience an accident, including one caused by a vehicle failure.

If you are seeking to make an auto product liability claim, there is a statute of limitations – a deadline – that you have to meet if you want to recover damages. This is a time-sensitive matter! Call our St. Petersburg auto product liability lawyers today to schedule a free consultation with us!
