Defective UTV Lawsuit Settlement

Product Liability Claims Involving Dangerous ATV and UTV Designs

Not every ATV or UTV accident happens because of driver error or rough terrain. In some cases, the design of the vehicle itself creates unnecessary risks that can lead to devastating injuries. When a manufacturer places a defective or unreasonably dangerous product on the market, injured riders and passengers may have the right to pursue a product liability claim.

We represented a passenger who suffered serious injuries while riding in a UTV with a defective and dangerous design. After pursuing claims against a major ATV and UTV manufacturer, we secured a $2,365,000 settlement on our client’s behalf.

Product liability cases involving side-by-side vehicles often require extensive engineering analysis, accident reconstruction, and expert testimony to determine how a design defect contributed to the crash or the severity of the injuries. These claims are often far more complex than a typical off-road vehicle accident because they focus on whether the vehicle could and should have been designed more safely.
