Deadly Rollover Accidents in Texas

Car rollovers are traumatic events that can be absolutely destructive. According to findings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), rollover accidents are only involved in an estimated 3 percent of reported car crashes nationwide. However, they are involved in an estimated 30 percent of passenger-vehicle deaths. These types of crashes are known to leave victims with life-changing injuries. An estimated 75 percent of rollovers only involve a single vehicle, with the remaining 25 percent involving two or more. You need to be sure that you are ready to fight for justice if someone close to you is killed in a rollover crash on Texas roadways. 

It is necessary to take action if someone you care about is unexpectedly killed by the actions of a reckless driver. That means partnering with a trained lawyer who can give you much-needed legal guidance during this difficult time. It is never easy to handle a deadly crash, and it is common for families to be overwhelmed by grief. This often leads them to put off taking legal action. Under Texas state law, you may be able to pursue a wrongful death claim as a representative of the deceased in order to get the compensation that would have been owed to the victim had they survived the accident. However, you only have a limited time to take action.
