Child Safety Seat Defects

Madison Child Safety Seat Lawyer

There’s no doubt that a child’s safety is every parent’s highest priority. Placing your children in child safety seats is the best way to protect them while on the road. There are times, however, that child safety seats fail to properly protect children, resulting in their injury. Defects of child safety seats include ineffective seat buckles, faulty harnesses, and even defective padding in some cases. Studies show that around 82% of all child safety seats are installed incorrectly because of confusing instructions. Child safety seats that are improperly installed have the potential to cause your child serious injury and possible death. In other cases, the car seat was properly installed, but the slot meant to attach the child safety seat to the car is too weak and breaks when the car is in a collision. The part of the child safety seat that is meant to hold your child in place may also be defective and cause the child to slip out of the car seat during a collision.

Although the Consumer Product Safety Commission regulate child safety seats, defective seats still manage to make it onto the shelves of popular retail stores. Over the years, thousands of these defective child safety seats have been sold, leading to numerous recalls and lawsuits. Finding an experienced lawyer to help you through the complex legal process is the first step in filing a product liability lawsuit. A licensed attorney has the skills to be able to effectively evaluate your specific situation.
