T-bone collisions are some of the most violent crashes on LA roads.
The side of a vehicle has almost no structure to absorb impact. When a car plows into the driver or passenger door, the person inside takes the hit. In Los Angeles, we see these crashes all the time—especially at intersections where drivers run lights, fail to yield, or speed through a yellow.
We’ve handled cases involving broken ribs, crushed limbs, spinal damage, and traumatic brain injuries—all from side impacts at speeds under 40 mph.
If you were hit like this, you already know the pain is real. You need an attorney who knows how to prove it.
Start with your safety. Call 911. Get checked out by paramedics, even if you think you’re okay. Many side-impact injuries don’t show symptoms right away—especially internal trauma or concussions.
If you can, take photos of both vehicles, the street signs, and any skid marks or debris. Talk to witnesses. Ask for badge numbers from responding officers.
Then call a lawyer. Don’t wait for the insurance company to “get back to you.” They already have a strategy. And it doesn’t include paying what your case is worth.
We take over communication and start gathering evidence while it’s still fresh.
We’ve seen T-bone accidents happen in every neighborhood—Hollywood, South LA, Koreatown, you name it.
Most side-impact crashes come down to driver error:
Sometimes the vehicle that caused the accident isn’t even the one that made contact. Chain reactions and multi-car pileups are common, especially during rush hour. We trace fault carefully to make sure blame is placed where it belongs.
We don’t stop at the surface facts. We go deeper—because payouts depend on proof.
Side-impact crashes often lead to long recoveries—and big bills.
At The LA Law Firm, we fight to recover every category of damage you’re owed. That includes emergency care, surgery, rehab, and follow-up treatment. If you missed work, we calculate your lost wages. If you can’t return to your old job, we include diminished earning capacity.
Pain and suffering claims go beyond physical injury. We show how the crash affected your daily life, your sleep, your ability to drive, move, and function normally. When the injuries cause lasting impact, we consult life-care planners to project long-term needs.
We’ve also handled wrongful death claims for family members of those killed in side-impact collisions. Funeral costs, lost financial support, and emotional loss all factor into those cases.
Insurance companies lowball these numbers every day. We don’t let them.
Liability in a T-bone crash isn’t always as clear as it looks.
Even when one driver hits another broadside, fault can still be disputed. That’s especially true at uncontrolled intersections or when drivers claim the light was yellow. We use intersection footage, witness statements, and crash reconstruction to lock in the sequence of events.
In some cases, more than one party may be responsible. A delivery driver on the clock might drag in the employer’s liability. A malfunctioning traffic signal might shift some blame onto a city agency. Our team pursues every angle.
In California, you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault. We fight to keep your share of the blame as low as possible.
You need a lawyer who knows how to win intersection crash cases in Los Angeles.
We’ve handled side-impact collisions all across LA—from Van Nuys to Inglewood—and we understand how local adjusters think, how to use police reports effectively, and when to escalate to litigation.
Our firm doesn’t hand off your file. We give you direct access to an attorney who knows your case, gives real updates, and actually fights to maximize your results.
We take cases on contingency, so there’s no fee unless we win.
