Rollover Truck Accidents in Phoenix, AZ

Each year, thousands of truck accidents occur in the United States. One of the most common types of truck accidents to occur on Arizona roads are rollover crashes. Oftentimes, truck rollovers involve more than one vehicle. These accidents can cause extensive property damage to both vehicles.

Arizonas highways are filled with semi-trucks, 18-wheelers and tractor-trailers. The large number of commercial trucks on the road put drivers at an increased risk of being involved in a collision. When a truck rollover occurs it can leave occupants in both vehicles with severe injuries. Its important for Arizona drivers to stay alert when traveling close to large trucks.

If youve been injured in a truck rollover crash, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings and property damage. Contact an experienced Phoenix personal injury attorney today to explore your legal options.

Causes of Truck Rollover Accidents

A variety of factors can contribute to a truck rollover accident. Many truck collisions are caused by driver negligence or inattentiveness. Truck drivers have a responsibility to other motorists on the road to operate their vehicles in a safe manner and to follow Arizonas traffic laws. Some common causes of truck rollovers include:

• Driving too fast for the conditions
• Drivers distracted by mobile phones and other devices
• Truck driver fatigue
• Taking a turn too fast
• Stopping suddenly on a soft surface
• Over steering the vehicle to keep it from drifting
• Making abrupt maneuvers

Many truck rollover accidents can be avoided, if drivers followed driver safety tips and traffic regulations.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2010, over 3,600 lost their lives in truck accidents in the U.S. If you have lost a family member in a truck accident due to the negligence of another party, then you may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim. Contact a knowledgeable wrongful death attorney to learn about the legal rights afforded to accident victims.

Conditions that Contribute to Truck Rollovers

Truck rollover accidents can be broken down into two groups, tripped and untripped accidents. In a tripped accident, the truck leaves the road when it hits a curb, guardrail or rough terrain. The force of the crash causes the vehicle to rollover. However, in an untripped accident a centrifugal force causes the truck rollover. In these types of crashes, no objects are hit, but the rollover is caused by an abrupt turn or by driving at high speeds. Certain road conditions can increase a trucks chances of rolling over including:

• Steep hills
• Soft road surfaces
• Winding streets
• Slick highways due to ice or rain
• Construction zones

If you were injured in a truck at no fault of your own, you may be eligible for legal and financial recourse.

The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group.

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...
