Side Impact Car Accident Attorneys Serving Chicago, Aurora, Champaign and all of Illinois
Collisions that are referred to as T-Bone, broadside or side-impact occur when the front end of one vehicle strikes the side of another vehicle. Side impact car crashes can occur anywhere, but most often, they happen at intersections or in parking lots. Given that air bags are designed for front and rear-end collisions, side-impact collisions can often be more severe than other types of accidents.
At Woodruff Johnson & Palermo, in Illinois, our lawyers have significant experience handling all types of motor vehicle accident claims. We thoroughly investigate the facts in each case to determine all possible causes of injuries, who is at fault for those injuries and what amount of compensation is fair to pay for current and future medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and other related expenses.
Illinois T-Bone Side Impact Collision Attorneys
T-Bone side collisions often happen at interactions when cars fail to yield or stop at a red light or stop sign. Drivers may fail to yield because they are distracted, by cell phone use or texting, or because they are impaired by drugs or alcohol.
Common injuries that are caused by T-bone collisions may include head injuries, shoulder injuries, bone fractures, whiplash and spinal cord injuries. If the impact occurs in the middle of the vehicle, the opportunity for serious injury is much more likely.
