Since sale of his tire store in the 1990’s, Mr. Hagerty has inspected over 2600 separate vehicles for Tire failure, Fire Origin and Cause, Brake failure and other mechanical issues. However, he now concentrates exclusively on Tire Standards of Care for retail tire servicers, including car dealerships, big box stores (Wal Mart etc) and quick lube facilities that check tire pressures and tread depths. What did that tire inspection locate, and what (if anything) did they advise the customer concerning the safety of their tires? That is where Mr. Hagerty may be able to assist you with your case.
Mr. Hagerty was the Standard of Care expert in the Flores v. Wal Mart case decided Nov 15, 2012 in which the jury awarded the Flores family $27.5 million (see attached) |
