Liebeck vs. McDonald’s Restaurants.
You may know it as the McDonald’s Hot Coffee Case, but chances are you DO know of it. This was a landmark case in American history. It was a 1994 product liability lawsuit in which a civil jury awarded 2.86 million dollars to plaintiff Stella Liebeck. She suffered third-degree burns to her pelvic region when she spilled hot McDonald’s coffee in her lap.
Legal scholar Jonathan Turley (look him up) has declared the claim a “meaningful and worthy lawsuit”. We don’t wish to take this small space to sum up the case, but suffice to say Mrs. Liebeck was in no way greedy. She sought just $20,000 to cover her actual and anticipated expenses. Instead, McDonalds offered a paltry $800!
When a tough defender of human rights was needed to help defend Stella Liebeck an Albuquerque personal injury lawyer was called in to help Mrs. Liebeck get a fair and equitable settlement. That man was (and is) Kenneth Wagner. Today Ken Wagner serves The Great Southwest from his office in ABQ. Call the firm anytime at (505) 242-6300.

Big Rigs…Big Danger.
Let’s face it, they are a whole lot bigger than us. Trucking accidents are serious business and
we take each and every one of them very seriously. How much do you think a typical
tractor-trailer weighs? The answer is
about 80,000 pounds. Now imagine that
beast traveling at 65+ mph and the results can be catastrophic if you are
clipped in your vehicle!
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration says there
are about 4,000 fatal crashes each year in the United States. Many of those occur on the highways of The
Great Southwest where truckers travel fast.
The blame for an accident is about 50/50 between motorists and truck
drivers, but you know who comes out better in those confrontations!
One of the leading vehicle and truck accident attorneys in
The Great Southwest is Albuquerque based.
We are The Ken Wagner Law Firm.
We are dedicated to protecting your rights when you are involved in a
Big Rig accident. Please do not
hesitate. Give us a call as soon as
possible. That’s The Ken Wagner Law Firm
at (505) 242-6300.

Misunderstood Wrongful Death.
It is a nebulous concept for most of us. Even if we are faced with a potential wrongful death case our grief is so palpable that even then the concept is almost undefinable. IF a death is caused by a person or even a corporation that resulted from an intentional or reckless act, even if it is a relative who causes the event, it may be wrongful death.
Wrongful death cases are not limited to, but include –
1. Murder
2. A vehicle accident
3. Medical malpractice
4. Prescription drugs
5. A dangerous product
Wrongful death attorneys are few and far between in the Great Southwest because it takes years of experience to properly try such a case. There may be no one better at doing so than Ken Wagner of The Ken Wagner Law Firm located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. If you feel that you may have a wrongful death case call The Ken Wagner Law Firm at (505) 242-6300.
