Rollover Roof Crush

Georgia Car Roof Crush Injury Attorneys

A vehicle's roof—whether it’s car, an SUV, or a truck—is a critical structural component and factor in its overall crashworthiness. And when the strength of a roof is not tested under real-world conditions, or is dependent upon a substandard windshield in order to work properly, real-world people invariably get hurt or killed as a result.

We hold ourselves to a higher standard…

At Harris, Penn & Lowry, LLP, we spare no effort or resource in our approach and thoroughly investigate and research each and every case as though for trial. Because of this, our lawyers are well-known and well-respected in legal communities throughout the southeastern United States for both the quality of our work and the aggressiveness with which we represent our clients.

Auto-makers and their insurers know us well too, but for very different reasons.

As a firm, we have been able to obtain favorable verdicts and settlements for clients involved in rollover car roof collapse accidents throughout the states of Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Common causes leading to vehicle roof caving include:

• Window glazing defects
• Poor roof design
• Flaws in structural supports such as roof pillars
• Lack of B-pillars (Ford F-150 suicide-door models)
• Improper or defective welding
• Bonded, rather than welded, roofing components

In some cases, in an effort to get the overall weight of a vehicle a little bit lower, auto-makers have deliberately 'scrimped' on the amount and type of material used in manufacturing their roofs. Despite these facts, the roof strength claim that many auto-makers continue to make is that they meet or exceed the federal standards.

And while this claim may be true, keep in mind that federal standards are minimum standards and that the government does not conduct their own inspections to verify them.

We believe they ought to do better. We will do better for you.
