A plaintiffs firm that has sued General Motors Co. over accidents related to an ignition switch defect is continuing to file lawsuits even as its clients prepare to make claims against a victim compensation fund.
Montgomery, Ala.’s Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles, which claims to be investigating more than 250 crashes that could be linked to ignition switch problems, filed suit on Wednesday on behalf of Daniel Hollaert, 23, who died on Dec. 17, 2013, when his 2006 Chevy Cobalt crashed into a school bus in Orleans County, N.Y.
