Side impact collisions, also known as T-bone accidents, can cause devastating injuries because the sides of vehicles offer less protection than the front or rear. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a side impact or T-bone car accident in Boca Raton, the injuries may require extensive medical care and time away from work. Our motor vehicle accident attorneys understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these crashes can have and are here to help you pursue full compensation.
At Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia, we have the resources to investigate the cause of the accident, identify the liable parties, and build a strong claim. Whether your crash occurred at a busy intersection like Glades Road and Federal Highway or in a quiet neighborhood intersection, we understand the local roads and traffic patterns that can play a role in these cases.
T-bone accidents often happen at intersections when one driver fails to yield, runs a red light, or disregards a stop sign. Distracted driving, speeding, and impaired driving are also frequent causes. The force of a side-impact can crush the vehicle’s doors inward, resulting in serious injuries such as broken bones, internal bleeding, or traumatic brain injuries.
In Boca Raton, high-traffic areas like those near Florida Atlantic University or busy downtown intersections are especially prone to these types of collisions. If another driver’s negligence caused your injuries, you have the right to seek compensation.
If you are involved in a side impact accident, your safety comes first. Call 911 immediately and request medical assistance for yourself and anyone else who is injured. Provide police with as much detail as possible about the crash, including the direction each vehicle was traveling.
If possible, take photos of the scene, your injuries, and the damage to both vehicles. Gather contact information from witnesses; and after seeking medical care, contact Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia promptly so we can start investigating and preserving critical evidence.
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we secure compensation for you.
Victims of side impact or T-bone collisions may be entitled to economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages address pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life.
In severe cases, long-term care and future medical expenses may also be recoverable. Our attorneys work with accident reconstructionists, medical professionals, and financial experts to ensure your claim accounts for all your losses.
Because the side of a vehicle offers little protection, occupants are more vulnerable to serious injuries from the force of of a side-impact.
Under Florida’s comparative negligence laws, you can still recover compensation, but your award may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
