Yamaha Rhino Lawsuit FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions About Yamaha Rhino Lawsuits

by Michael J. Evans on April 21, 2009

Q:  Does the Yamaha Rhino recall provide money for people who were injured or lost loved ones in Yamaha Rhino rollovers?
A:  No.  In order to collect money, you will need to hire a lawyer to handle your claim, and possibly file a lawsuit against Yamaha.

Q:  How much does it cost to get an attorney to review my potential case?
A:  Many lawyers will review your case free-of-charge.  Also, many lawyers who handle these types of cases charge contingency fees, in which the lawyers don’t get a fee unless you collect money.  It is important to discuss fees and expenses with any lawyer you may consider hiring. The ATV Attorney Alliance, with lawyers across the U.S., has a Yamaha Rhino lawsuit form you can use to obtain a free review of your potential case. Also, you can call attorney Phillip Jauregui of the ATV Attorney Alliance to discuss your possible Yamaha Rhino lawsuit free-of-charge at 800-509-5357.

Q:  Is it possible for me to collect money for injuries caused by a Yamaha Rhino rollover if I was driving the Rhino?
A:  It depends on the facts of your case.  If you were driving responsibly and your injuries occurred due to the design defects of the Yamaha Rhino, you may be entitled to collect money.  You should discuss this with an experienced attorney.

Q:  Is there a time limit on filing a lawsuit to collect money from Yamaha?
A:  Yes.  Each state has its own time period (called a “statute of limitations”) for filing suit, and these periods differ from state to state.  That’s one reason it’s important for you to contact a lawyer without delay if you were injured or lost a loved one in a Yamaha Rhino rollover.

Q:  Is there a class action lawsuit that will obtain money for everyone injured in a Yamaha Rhino rollover?
A:  No. You may have read an article about MDL litigation against Yamaha in federal court, but the MDL litigation merely consolidates individual lawsuits that have been filed in federal court. The MDL is not a class action lawsuit.  Each person who was injured or lost a family member in a Yamaha Rhino rollover will need to hire an attorney to collect money from Yamaha. It may be necessary for the attorney to file a Yamaha Rhino lawsuit to collect money for your injuries or the death of your family member.
