It is true that, when properly installed, child restraints are more than 70 percent effective in preventing serious injury and death. However, as many as 80 percent of these seats are not properly installed, or worse, are defectively designed or manufactured. Such defective designs cause thousands of deaths and serious head, brain, and spinal cord injuries each year. If your child has been injured because of a defective child restraint, contact Waltman & Grisham immediately.

The National Transportation Safety Board reported that 17,000 children under the age of 10 were killed in automobile accidents between 1990 and 1999. Inadequate federal minimum standards and a lack of sophistication on the part of the child restraint industry or, worse still, a callous indifference to the safety of America’s children have resulted in numerous deaths and injuries. The result has been an increase in product liability lawsuits against child restraint manufacturers over the last several years.

Although child restraints must be tested to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Standards 213, the testing criteria are misleading and inaccurate. FMVSS213 testing results are skewed - landing inadequately tested and unsafe child seats in the hands of trusting, but uninformed, consumers.
