Experts note this many concurrent outbreaks is unusual, and it is worth paying closer attention than usual.

Vehicle rollaway incidents — where a car moves with no driver at the wheel — are more common than you'd think, and the cause is often the car itself.

Modern electronic shifters, rotary dials, and push-button controls were designed to look sleek. The tradeoff is that they give drivers almost no tactile feedback about whether the vehicle is actually in park. When the same mistake happens across thousands of otherwise attentive drivers, it's worth asking whether the design is the problem — not the driver.

Our latest blog walks through how rollaway incidents happen, who may be liable, and why preserving the vehicle after an incident is one of the most important steps a victim can take.

“The difference between identifying a product defect and missing it can mean the difference between a policy-limits settlement and a multimillion-dollar recovery.”

In her latest blog, Cooper Firm paralegal Doreen Lundrigan outlines how to spot potential product liability cases early — before key evidence is repaired, discarded, or lost. From rollover crashes and equipment failures to packaging and warning defects, small details can signal a much larger claim.

The article covers practical red flags, common defect types, and the immediate preservation steps that can make or break a case.
