Rollovers

Phoenix Attorneys for SUV Rollover Accidents

Rollovers may be the rarest type of car accident, but the injuries they cause can be the most severe. Rollovers cause a wide range of injury, from broken bones, to spinal cord injury or brain injury, as well as wrongful death.

At the Phoenix law offices of Solomon & Relihan, we represent the victims of rollover accidents in legal actions that hold negligent drivers and manufacturers of defective vehicles and tires accountable for the harm they cause. For more than 30 years, we have focused exclusively on personal injury. This focus has helped us earn a reputation as one of the leading personal injury law firms in Arizona.

The Causes of Rollover Accident Injuries

Vehicle rollovers are not supposed to occur under normal driving conditions. Sometimes they happen when a negligent driver causes the vehicle to turn too sharply or too quickly, but a rollover can also occur when a vehicle is hit from the side or suffers a tire blowout. Because of the vehicle design, it flips over.

Rollovers can be more common in types of high profile vehicles, like SUVs, trucks, and vans that have the body of the vehicle higher off the ground than most passenger cars. Because the center of gravity is higher for these types of vehicles, they can tip and roll over more easily than cars that are lower to the ground.

When a rollover does occur, the vehicle's roof is supposed to withstand the pressure of the vehicle being on its side or upside down. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. Rollovers that involve roof crushes can cause serious injuries. When these roof crush injuries occur, the true cause is often a design flaw or a manufacturing defect.
