SUV Rollover Accidents

Sport utility vehicles (SUVs) remain among the most popular passenger vehicles, and many drivers prize them for their four-wheel-drive capabilities and a perceived sense of safety.

But due to their high center of gravity and sometimes unbalanced weight, SUVs are more likely to roll over than cars. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), rollover accidents typically account for more than half of all SUV accident fatalities.

If you suffered injury or a loved one was killed in an SUV rollover accident that was caused by the negligence of another driver, the Virginia traffic accident lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman may be able to help you recover financial compensation for medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering. In some cases, the vehicle manufacturer may also be held accountable for producing a defective product that was prone to rolling over.

Because of the jarring and unpredictable impact of rollover accidents, these accidents can also result in severe injuries including:

• Traumatic brain injury
• Spinal cord injury
