Hilliard Responds To Barra's Comments: Calls On GM To Resolve Pre-Bankruptcy Cases
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Bob Hilliard, appointed by the Federal Judge in the GM MDL litigation to be the lead attorney for all personal injury and death cases caused by GM's defective ignition switch, responds to Mary Barra's statements regarding GM's recent settlements, and calls on GM to resolve Pre-Bankruptcy cases.
Today, Barra addressed GM employees at a Town Hall Meeting stating, "We didn't do our job and as part of our apology to the victims we promise to take responsibility for our actions."
Mr. Hilliard reached a settlement with GM on behalf of 1379 of his clients, including 50 death claims, all involving accidents which occurred after GM filed for Bankruptcy in July of 2009.
Hilliard states, "If Ms. Barra wants to truly lead this company by example, then she must insist that her attorneys quit hiding behind the bankruptcy shield and agree to compensate these victims. Why? Because it is the right thing to do. Because it puts backbone and substance into her promise. But mostly, because there are victims who deserve her respect and her acknowledgement."
