Tampa T-Bone Car Accident Lawyer

When you have a green light, you never expect to suddenly be T-boned by another car running a red light. The impact is often hard, out of nowhere and can leave you with extremely serious injuries. Side-impact crashes, or T-bone collisions, most often occur in a situation like this, when one driver fails to yield at an intersection and collides with the doors of another car. If another motorist T-boned you, you and any passengers in your vehicle very likely have severe injuries.

After this type of collision, you might start to feel overwhelmed. With rising medical bills, persistent calls from insurance companies and healing from your injuries while at the same time trying to return to work in a reasonable amount of time, the idea of also handling a legal case is daunting.

Considering the severity of these types of crashes, it is essential to work with an experienced auto accident attorney team to handle your case. Our Tampa T-bone car accident lawyer is committed to obtaining the maximum amount of compensation you are owed due to someone else’s negligence.

What Are the Common Causes of Side-Impact Collisions in Tampa?

T-bone accidents are one of the most common types of collision. These car crashes are often the result of driver distraction or failure to yield. For example, a driver might pull out of a parking lot without checking for oncoming traffic, causing the motorist on the main road to T-bone them. Alternatively, someone who is texting and driving might run through a stop sign and strike the side of another vehicle in the intersection.

In some cases, a poorly marked road or a hard-to-see sign may lead to a collision. Our personal injury attorneys have years of experience with T-bone accidents and can help you investigate the circumstances of the crash.

Why Are T-Bone Accident Injuries So Severe?

Despite advances in automobile safety, such as side-impact airbags, car doors do not provide very much protection for the driver and passengers. Consequently, T-bone accidents typically result in more severe injuries than a typical fender bender. When a driver or passenger is struck from the side, they might experience injuries including:

These types of injuries may require long-term medical treatment and can keep you from working for months or even years. To ensure you get the compensation that adequately addresses your losses, you should consult a skilled side-impact collision attorney right away.

The Challenges of Dealing with Insurance Companies

Dealing with insurance companies is one of the most challenging parts of a car accident claim. Even when an injured driver seeks compensation from their own insurance company, there is no guarantee that the insurance adjusters will treat them fairly.

Often insurance companies will try to downplay your injuries and damages to avoid paying the full amount of compensation you deserve. Our dedicated side-impact car accident lawyers in Tampa can make certain that the insurance company will take you and your case seriously.

Hancock Injury Attorneys will gather all evidence of your injuries and expenses to calculate your full amount of damages. We will then take this evidence to the insurance company and present a demand for compensation. If the insurance company is unwilling to compensate you fairly, we are prepared to take your case before a judge and jury.
