Who is liable when your car or truck is defective?
The auto manufacturer is!
There are several design flaws in all SUVs, no matter who the car maker might be. These vehicles were originally designed for off-road use, not for highways, and the design has never been modified for the occupant’s safety. The last design update was in 1994!
More than 10,000 people are killed in rollover accidents each year. This does not take into account how many others are killed from other accidents such as head-on or side-impact accidents.
Who can help if you have been injured in a rollover accident?
If you were injured an SUV rollover accident, or if your loved one was injured or killed in a rollover accident, you should consult with an experienced personal injury attorney who can evaluate your injuries and damages.
An attorney that specializes in personal injury and product liability cases understands that not all the medical and financial damages from an accident are known immediately. The attorneys at the Law Office of Kiley Law Group will take this into account when fighting to obtain the compensation you deserve from the insurance companies.
Remember: the job of the insurance company is to settle claims quickly and for as little money as possible. Our firm is familiar with this tactic–we are your advocate, not the insurance company’s.
(In some cases–when product liability is to blame–your lawyer may refer you to another attorney who specializes in class-action lawsuits. Class-action lawsuits are different than individual lawsuits, so the attorney you hire must be experienced in the requirements needed to proceed with your claim. Class-action lawsuits involve many victims and many different insurance companies so the legal team you choose must have this specialized experience.)
