Automobile manufacturers spend a lot of time and money telling you how much they have invested in making the operation of a motor vehicle safe. While constructive safety measures have been instituted, there are still many safety risks related to automobiles that have either not been adequately investigated or have simply been ignored. Unfortunately, when a motor vehicle malfunctions while you are on the road, the risk of serious injury is significant. If you or a loved one has been hurt because of the malfunction of a dangerous or defective automobile component or product, the lawyers at Shaffer & Gaier can help.

But our commitment is always the same — to help you get the best result possible as quickly as is reasonable and in a cost-effective manner. We have a registered nurse on our staff so we can thoroughly evaluate your injuries and medical needs, and can help you pursue compensation for all your medical concerns.
