A family from East Texas that was involved in a vehicular accident has received $193,000 as a settlement for a product liability claim for the personal injuries they received because of a defective seat belt restraint system.

The mother and two children involved in the crash won an insurance settlement against the other driver involved in the crash in addition to a settlement against the manufacturer of the defective seat belts in the vehicle.

Many people who are involved in automobile accidents are unaware of the possibility of their personal injuries being due to a defect in the vehicle. Those who are involved in a vehicle accident should contact an experienced personal injury attorney who can aid them in considering all possibilities for receiving just compensation.
