  • Sport Utility Rollover Lawyers
    Fighting for Victims of SUV Rollover Accidents

    During the last decade, a relatively new model of vehicle transformed itself from niche product to one of the most prevalent in the United States in terms of sales. This model is known as the Sports Utility Vehicle, or SUV as it's called by most. SUV's offer a 'little bit of both' in terms of how they're marketed - they present the driving capabilities of sedans and the utility and power of trucks.

    However, as more SUV's are on the roads every day, it's also become quite apparent that SUV's are also much more dangerous than other vehicles. The biggest reason for this is their inherent tendency to rollover on themselves, which always creates an extremely dangerous situation. If you or someone you love has been injured in an SUV rollover accident, contact the attorneys at Parilman & Associates today to schedule a free initial consultation.

    SUV Rollover Facts

    There are many facts available in regards to SUV rollovers, and the issue has received much media attention as a result. Below are a few worth noting, all of which originate with the federal government:
    1. Approximately 70,000 SUV rollovers occur on an annual basis.
    2. Approximately 12,000 people will die as a result of SUV rollover accidents in a given year.
    3. A rollover is more than 25% more likely to occur in an SUV than a sedan.
    4. Almost two-thirds of fatalities that occur in SUV accidents are due to rollovers.
    5. Almost 25 percent of all consumer vehicles on the road in the United States are SUV's.
    Clearly, the SUV in its most basic design presents problems and safety issues. What's worse is that they are marketed to be 'safer' than sedans.

    Other Issues

    Other problems that can complicate a situation if someone has been injured or worse in an SUV rollover accident are numerous in nature, and all of them indicate that you should not attempt to handle the problem by yourself. You will need professional legal help to make sure that your rights are protected if you decide to pursue a claim.

    First, the American economy is in terrible shape right now. Car companies are either barely getting by or moving towards bankruptcy, making the pursuit of a recovery more complicated. Additionally, thousands of lawsuits have been filed against vehicle manufacturers for this very reason, which means that you'll need an attorney to help make sure that your claim does not go unresolved and/or get lost in the shuffle.

    As you see, SUV rollover accidents are a serious problem in the United States. If you or someone you love has suffered as a result of one of these occurrences, don't attempt to handle the problem yourself - contact the attorneys at Parilman & Associates today to schedule a free initial consultation.
