We Hold Negligent Vehicle Manufacturers Accountable
Every year in the United States, we see over 250,000 rollover car accidents. These devastating accidents lead to over 10,000 deaths each year – which is roughly one-third of all car-related deaths.
Rollover accidents can be caused by the negligence of another driver or by a defect in the vehicle itself. When a design or manufacturing flaw is to blame for a rollover accident, the responsible party must be held accountable.
The victims of rollover accidents often suffer:
- Spinal injury
- Head trauma and brain injury
- Neck fractures
- Death
If you have suffered an injury in a rollover accident caused by a defective auto product – often the roof in these cases – you may be eligible to pursue a product liability claim against the vehicle manufacturer, designer, or other responsible party. At Ashcraft & Gerel, we fight hard to hold these parties accountable for the damage they have caused. Our Baltimore auto rollover accident lawyers are here to help you build a strong claim.

Types of Rollover Accidents
Rollover accidents can occur under a variety of circumstances.
The three main types of rollovers are:
- Tripped rollovers: The majority of single-vehicle rollovers are tripped, in which the vehicle hits an object like a guardrail, a curb, or a slope
- Un-tripped rollovers: Though un-tripped rollovers are less common than tripped rollovers, they can still cause serious damage. Un-tripped rollovers tend to occur at high speeds when the driver makes a sharp turn or some other maneuver.
- Multi-vehicle rollover accidents: Rollovers can also occur when multiple vehicles are involved in the accident. A vehicle could roll over when it is struck from the side.
