QUESTION
Do I have case if my airbag did not deploy?

More details to this question:
I had a front end accident. My car was totaled and my steering wheel airbag did not deploy during the accident. I was taken by ambulance and was not able to take pictures of this. I did receive a breast injury from hitting the steering wheel. It has been confirmed by my doctor. But the unfortunate part is that when the car was towed, the airbag deployed and I have no picture as proof.

You may have a case, but you have to prove what damages you suffered because the air bag did not deploy and that it did not deploy. If no one else at the accident scene saw it did not deploy, you will have a very difficult time convincing anyone it did not. It sounds like your injuries were not very great so it is doubtful any attorney would take your case as the fee they could earn would not be worth the time they would have to spend on the case.
