Gordon, Edelstein Represents Amputee in Defective Tire Case

Personal Injury attorneys Howard Krepack and Gary Stern have filed suit on behalf of a woman who lost her leg in a horrible traffic accident on the highway to Las Vegas when the car she was riding in overturned because a rear tire suddenly came apart. The defendant is Cooper Tires.

The accident was caused when the tire tread separated from the rest of the tire, resulting in a sudden loss of control of the car. This case is similar to hundreds of other such cases that have been brought against Cooper Tires. Tire tread separation is a serious safety hazard that can lead to death or catastrophic injury. It is often the result of faulty tire design or manufacturing flaws.

Gordon, Edelstein has a successful track record representing clients in personal injury or wrongful death cases that involve defective products.
