Roll-Over Accidents Massachusetts

While rollover collisions can be dangerous, they can also be prevented. To reduce the danger of a rollover, drivers must take reasonable precautions when examining, loading, and driving their vehicles. If this isn't done, the defendant may be held heavily liable for automobile accidents. You can also be entitled to compensation if a vehicle rollover accident was caused by a flawed design. Don't presume you already know how much and from whom you may expect recompense. Allow a Massachusetts rollover accident attorney from Foti Law LLC to assist you in understanding your claim.

What Causes Rollover Accidents?

Rollover collisions have a few common causes. Your chance of being involved in a catastrophic rollover automobile accident can be decreased by being aware of the reasons and implementing the appropriate safety measures.

A rollover accident may be caused by several factors, including:

  1. Manufacturing flaws: Automakers must create safe cars, SUVs, vans, trucks, and other motor vehicles, according to the law. Automobile flaws such as faulty brakes, tires, and mechanical problems are frequently to blame for rollover collisions.
  2. Speeding too fast: Exceeding the posted speed limit might make rollover automobile accidents more likely. While moving at a high rate of speed, changing directions can be risky and difficult.
  3. Aggressive or reckless driving: Making quick, sharp turns, doing so while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or doing so while distracted (such as by checking your cell phones while driving) are all instances of negligent behavior that can result in a rollover automobile accident.
  4. Obstacles: Hitting something on the road—especially at a high speed—can result in a rollover accident. Trips could involve medians, unlevel or damp ground, guardrails, things from other countries, or even other cars.
Common Injuries from Rollover Car Accidents

Depending on the conditions, a rollover automobile accident can result in a variety of injuries. For instance, if your automobile rolls more than thrice before stopping rather than simply once, your injuries can be more severe. The risk of suffering serious injuries increases if your car collides with another one or something else while rolling over. Here are some of the most common injuries sustained in rollover collisions.

  • Traumatic brain injuries: When someone is ejected from a rolling car and hits their head inside the vehicle or on the pavement, they may get brain damage. Brain injuries are frequently devastating because they result in permanent disability for the victims. Patients with brain injuries frequently need extensive rehabilitation, which may include physical and occupational therapy.
  • Broken bones: Although they are not considered catastrophic injuries, broken bone injuries can cause sufferers to experience persistent discomfort. Broken bones frequently need extensive treatment programs and physical therapy. Before recovery is complete and sufferers regain strength, function, and mobility, it may take many months.
  • Loss of limbs: Because of the high speed of a rollover collision, lacerations are frequent and may result in limb amputations, which might have a profound impact on the lives of the victims and their families.
  • Spinal cord trauma: Rollover crashes that lock individuals in the car frequently result in spinal cord injury. The spines of the passengers are crushed as the vehicle's roof collapses. Paralysis and other incapacitating injuries might result from this. Tragic spinal injuries are frequently incurable. Victims are no longer able to work and may need round-the-clock care. Millions of dollars might be spent on these kinds of injuries throughout a person's lifetime.
  • Internal injuries: Vital organs including the heart, lungs, liver, spleen, and kidneys are frequently injured in auto accidents. If internal bleeding is not treated immediately, it might turn lethal. It is crucial to get medical assistance right soon because these are injuries that might not be seen right away.
Claiming for a Rollover Accident in Massachusetts

You should begin an investigation as soon as you can if you've been in a rollover accident or a car accident. At the scene, you should collect as much proof as you can. Take images and videos of your automobile, any damage, and any other evidence you think may be crucial if you have a smartphone.

Now that that has been said, kindly make sure you get medical help. Go to the emergency department and visit a doctor even if you feel absolutely fine. Your well-being and the well-being of everyone engaged are what matter most. Additionally, you should check on the accident's other victims because everyone's safety should come first. It may be to your best advantage to filing a lawsuit as soon as possible in some rollover accident situations. We take a variety of actions in these particular situations.

Our team at Foti Law LLC will make every effort to get the proof you need to support your case. The best thing you can do is give us a call as soon as you can so we can provide you with advice and represent you in court.

Rollover Accident Damages

The type and severity of your injuries and losses will determine the worth of your rollover accident case. Rollover accident victims may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical costs
  • Income and benefits loss
  • The expense of rehabilitation services
  • permanent injuries and impairments that limit one's ability to work
  • Pain and suffering
  • emotional distress
Agreement With the Insurance Provider

Sadly, once the insurance provider promises a rapid settlement, many accident victims settle the case too quickly which is highly detrimental. Victims settle for less than they deserve too quickly. Therefore, a rollover accident lawyer from our company will advise continuing talks with the insurance to secure the highest possible settlement.

To maximize the insurance payout, we advise pursuing a personal injury case if an agreement cannot be reached with the other side.
