Tampa Rollover Truck Accident Lawyer 

FL Injury Lawyers (Home) / Tampa Personal Injury Lawyer / Tampa Truck Accident Lawyer / Tampa Rollover Truck Accident Lawyer 

Few types of traffic-related accidents produce the sort of dread and danger of the rollover crash. Statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicate that in 2010, rollovers comprised just 2.1 percent of all vehicle accidents, but accounted for roughly 35 percent of all passenger car fatalities.

Devastating injuries, onerous financial burdens and sometimes even death can befall individuals who experience such an event, and it is vital that victims receive fair compensation. If you have been affected in this way, a Tampa rollover truck accidents lawyer is ready to seek justice on your behalf. Contact a qualified attorney to see how they can help you.

Common Accident Scenarios

There are a number of circumstances and factors commonly known to precede rollover crashes. Driver negligence, for instance, can set a chain of events in motion which ultimately ends with a vehicle rolling over.

Whether due to driver fatigue, distraction, error in judgment or inclement weather and road conditions, rollover incidents are routinely attributable to tight turns, evasive maneuvers, excessive speed and over corrections while behind the wheel.

Once a rollover begins to transpire, there is almost nothing that can be done to stop it. The physical impact on drivers and passengers alike is not the only hazard caused by such events, as roof collapses, vehicle fires and actual ejection onto the road surface are all possibilities as well. It is not surprising that the physical and emotional toll taken by a rollover accident tends to be profound.

Rollover Incidents and Defective Vehicles

In addition to driver-initiated causes of rollover accidents, there also may be significant equipment-related issues that yield these devastating outcomes. For example, defective tires characterized by tread separation at high speeds may be responsible for a loss of control and a subsequent roll.

Vehicles designed with unreasonably high centers of gravity can also be prone to rolling if a sharp turn is attempted. Suspension defects and/or failures are additional causes of rollover accidents.

Injuries Caused by Trucks

The speed, force, and physical impact of a rollover accident all combine to cause truly debilitating injuries and worse in a startling number of cases. The harm sustained in such accidents can persist for years, perhaps even a lifetime. Common types of trauma sustained in rollover crashes include:

  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Spinal cord damage/possible permanent paralysis
  • Damage to internal organs
  • Amputations
  • Burns
  • Lasting disfigurement
  • Penetrating lacerations
  • Severe bone fractures

Not only do such injuries cause physical and emotional agony, the costs of treatment and rehabilitation that necessarily follow can cause truly ruinous financial ripple effects. An aggressive Tampa rollover truck accident attorney will fight to ensure that justice is done and crucial resources are available to victims.

Establishing Liability and Pursuing Compensation

Each and every rollover truck accident is different, and there is no substitute for a comprehensive investigation conducted by a legal team possessing vast experience handling such cases.

A seasoned lawyer will work to identify all parties who may share in the blame for what has occurred, including truck operators, trucking companies, vehicle equipment manufacturers and more.

The ultimate goal is to receive every dollar of compensation to which victims and their families are entitled, which can encompass payment for medical expenses incurred, pain and suffering, emotional distress, lost wages and a host of other loss categories. It is imperative to seek a Tampa rollover truck accident attorney.

Seasoned Legal Representation in Times of Crisis

Any rollover event is bound to yield serious injuries, emotional distress and financial strain for which most victims simply are not prepared. When misfortune strikes and you face these and other challenges in the aftermath of a crash, a Tampa rollover truck accidents lawyer can provide the support and guidance required to try to secure appropriate monetary compensation.
