Notable Case

Defective Tire & SUV Rollover

The Estate of Alexander Sagrista et. al. v. Ford Motor Company, Bridgestone/Firestone, Inc. et. al.

On November 23, 1999, Alexander Sagrista, age 2, was killed, and his twin brother, Christopher, and mother, Christina, injured, when the 1997 Ford Explorer they were driving in experienced a tread separation and rolled over. We filed suit on behalf of the family and Estate alleging that the Firestone Wilderness AT tire on the vehicle was defective. It was also alleged that the Ford Explorer was unstable and that such instability contributed to the crash. The case settled for a confidential amount.
