T-Bone Collisions May Support Liability Insurance Claims or Civil Suits
If another motorist caused your Hillsborough County broadside accident, you might face weeks or months of recovery or even endure permanent injuries as a result. Side-impact accidents often lead to very serious and catastrophic injuries because of the way one vehicle impacts the other in a “T-bone” fashion. Additionally, there is less protection for side-impacts in most vehicles than there are for front or rear collisions. This can lead to serious injuries when a driver:
- Fails to stop at a stop sign
- Proceeds out of turn at a stop sign
- Fails to obey a red light or another traffic signal controlling an intersection
- Fails to yield the right-of-way when making a left turn
It is possible to file an insurance claim and recover compensation following your Riverview side-impact accident. However, this process may or may not include holding the at-fault motorist accountable for their negligent actions. Per Florida Statute §627.737, this type of fault-based claim is only possible under certain circumstances. Side-impact collisions accidents often qualify, though.
Give us a call today for a complimentary review of your injuries and accident. We can determine your legal options during this conversation. If we believe we can help you with your case, we will commit to providing the monetary support and time that your case requires. This means we will accept your case on a contingent fee basis, and you will not pay us anything out of your own pocket. A Riverview side-impact collision attorney from Distasio Law Firm only gets paid from a settlement or another financial recovery we secure for you.

Statute of Limitations on Taking Legal Action in Your Riverview Accident Case
We can often negotiate a fair settlement for our clients based on the losses they suffered. Sometimes, we need to take a case to court. However, we handle every step of this process, as well. We are here to put you at ease and reassure you that if this becomes a necessity in your case, we will represent your best interests throughout.
In general, we have up to two years to file a personal injury civil suit following a side-impact car accident in Florida. This statute of limitations is directed by Florida Statute §95.11. However, if your case involves a wrongful death claim, we only have two years to file a civil suit. These deadlines are strict in most cases. If we do not file your case by this deadline, we will not be able to seek compensation on your behalf. Unfortunately, you will lose the right to take your case before a judge or jury.
At Distasio Law Firm, we can ensure you meet all applicable deadlines in your case as long as we know about your accident with time to do so. Contact a Riverview sideswipe accident lawyer in Riverview soon as you can after your injuries occur.
