Defective Motorcycle/Bicycle Helmet Lawsuits

One of the most effective types of protective gear you can wear when riding a motorcycle, bicycle or ATV is a quality helmet. The risk of serious head and brain injuries can be reduced when a rider wears a helmet, as long as the helmet works as intended. Unfortunately, there have been instances where a helmet has a manufacturing or design flaw that reduces its effectiveness to prevent injury. When this occurs, and the rider sustains a head injury, the helmet designer or manufacturer may be liable for their injury.

Helmets are required to meet safety standards, whether they are meant for using while riding a bicycle or for motorized vehicles like motorcycles and ATVs. Something as small as a defective chin strap can fail during a crash, negating the protective features of the helmet. Riders wearing helmets expect to have head protection from their gear. When the helmet fails, the rider can face serious injuries to the head, brain, face and other features.

Pursuing a Helmet Product Liability Claim

Head injuries can occur while wearing a helmet, which can make defective helmet product liability lawsuits difficult. However, an experienced personal injury legal team will have the resources to help prove their case. Medical and safety experts can be useful to provide evidence if a defect in a helmet was the likely cause of a head injury. If a helmet has been recalled due to safety issues, it can be easier to prove the case. Some defective helmets that have come under legal scrutiny due to serious injuries include:

Bruce Millar The Millar Law Firm Atlanta, GA

As an Atlanta Attorney I have known Cale Conley personally for nearly 20 years. I first heard about Cale through other lawyers, who talked about his remarkable skill and great results as a trial attorney. When I finally had the chance to refer a case to Cale and work with him as a colleague, I was blown away by the level of his professionalism, knowledge and skill. Over the past few years I have referred several clients with large and complex cases to Cale and his firm and have been extremely impressed with the results he has obtained! In my opinion, Cale is one of the best Attorneys in the United States. Not just in Atlanta or Georgia, but anywhere. I am totally confident in referring any case or client to him. Not only is he a great attorney, he and his firm and partners take good care of clients and care deeply about them. If I could give Cale and his firm more than 5-Stars I would.

I had the pleasure of trying a very complicated products liability case with Cale Conley and Davis Popper. They and their entire office are fantastic, and I could not recommend them more highly. The entire process, from the time that we brought them in to work with us, through the course of the case and trial, was seamless. Cale, Richard, Rance, and Davis are some of the finest trial lawyers in the Country, and I look forward to working with them on future cases.
