Tire Tread Failure & Blowout

We've all heard countless stories on the news about wrecks caused by defective tires - and it isn't just those from one manufacturer. Defective tires cause wrecks daily and most of them could be far less serious or avoided altogether if not for the defective tires.

In the early 2000's, Bridgestone / Firestone and Ford Motor Company recalled almost 15 million tires. However, it is estimated that 6.5 million of those tires are still in use!

Even if you've purchased tires within the past year, it's possible that you purchased some of the recalled tires. Not to mention the fact that other defective tires make it into the market all the time.

Enlisting Reyes Bartolomei Browne to handle a defective tire claim is beneficial because:

• We know the law, what victims legally deserve, and what insurance companies and manufacturers are required to provide.
• We can help victims complete and file all appropriate paperwork, avoiding costly mistakes and explaining everything in plain English.
• We will work with you throughout a trial, or until a settlement is reached.
