A T-bone collision—also known as a side-impact or broadside crash—occurs when one vehicle's front end strikes another's side. These accidents frequently happen at intersections due to red-light running, stop-sign violations, or failure to yield. Since vehicle sides provide less structural protection than the front or rear, such crashes pose a high risk of injury.
T-bone accidents often involve high speeds, which exacerbates the injuries. Side curtain airbags and torso side airbags can help, but they don't always prevent serious harm. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), intersection crashes account for approximately 40% of all traffic accidents. Victims often suffer major injuries that require emergency medical treatment and long-term care. These crashes are common in cities such as San Diego and Los Angeles, as well as throughout the San Fernando Valley.
T-bone collisions are usually caused by one driver's failure to follow traffic laws. Common causes include:
When a driver ignores a traffic signal or is not paying attention, the result can be a serious side-impact collision. These crashes may lead to broken bones, spinal cord injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. At Nazaryan Law Firm, we determine the cause and ensure reckless drivers are held responsible.
Many T-bone crashes happen when a driver runs a red light or stop sign. These actions are traffic violations under California Vehicle Code Section 21453 and often result in intersection crashes. Drivers who ignore traffic signals put everyone at risk and can be held responsible for injuries and property damage.
Activities like texting, GPS navigation, or eating while driving cause dangerous distractions. A distracted driver may not see a red light or another vehicle in time to avoid a crash. Side-impact crashes caused by distractions often involve serious injuries and costly vehicle damage. Our lawyers use police reports and phone records to prove fault.
Drivers must follow right-of-way rules at intersections and during turns. Failure to yield often causes T-bone accidents, especially when drivers misjudge traffic or rush through lights. These drivers can be found liable under California negligence laws and may be responsible for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
T-bone crashes lead to serious injuries, especially when one vehicle strikes the driver's side door. Common injuries include:
Injuries from T-bone collisions often require extended medical treatment. Victims may face time away from work, expensive medical bills, and lasting pain. Our personal injury lawyers fight to recover every dollar you need for your recovery.
TBIs are common in side-impact crashes, especially if the victim's head hits a window or door. A TBI can affect memory, speech, and motor skills. Long-term treatment may include physical therapy and mental health support. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of TBI-related deaths. Our legal team collaborates with doctors to document your injuries and the associated costs of care.
Victims of T-bone crashes often suffer broken ribs, arms, or legs. Spinal cord injuries often result in nerve damage or paralysis, profoundly affecting daily life and work capabilities. We fight for compensation to cover rehabilitation, medical devices, and home care if needed.
Hiring an experienced lawyer after a T-bone accident is key. At Nazaryan Law Firm, we help clients by:
Our goal is to recover compensation for your pain and suffering, lost income, medical expenses, and vehicle damage. Our team handles all the details of your injury claim so you can concentrate on recovery.
We begin by collecting police reports, photos, and video footage. Our team interviews witnesses and collects insurance information. To fully reconstruct the incident, we collaborate with accident reconstruction specialists. This evidence helps build a strong case.
Insurance companies often offer low settlements. We fight back. With expertise in handling insurance adjusters, our attorneys ensure you receive a just settlement. If necessary, we take your case to trial to get the full compensation you deserve.
The legal process starts with a free consultation. Then, we investigate, gather medical records, and submit an insurance claim. If the insurance company refuses to pay fairly, we file a personal injury lawsuit.
Each case follows these steps:
We keep you informed every step of the way. California's statute of limitations generally gives you two years from the date of the crash to file your injury claim. Understanding the life cycle of a typical civil litigation case can help you know what to expect during this process.
To file a claim, we gather all necessary documentation, including medical records, accident reports, and repair estimates. We then submit your claim to the at-fault driver's insurance company. Having a personal injury attorney ensures nothing is missed, and deadlines are met.
Many T-bone cases settle before trial. However, if a fair offer isn't made, we are prepared to take the matter to court. We present your case clearly and fight for the best outcome. Whether through settlement or verdict, our goal is to secure the compensation you need. Our firm also offers arbitration and mediation services as alternative dispute resolution methods.

We've helped clients in San Diego, Los Angeles County, and throughout the San Fernando Valley recover millions in verdicts and settlements. Our team focuses on your recovery while we handle the legal aspects of the battle.

We work on a contingency fee, so you don't pay unless we win. Our lawyers know how to build strong cases using police reports, medical evidence, and expert testimony to support their clients. We are aggressive, experienced, and focused on your needs.
Call 911 and seek immediate medical attention. Exchange insurance information, take photos, and get a copy of the police report. Contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.
You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a claim. The statute of limitations sets this deadline. Don't wait, or you could lose your right to file.
Yes—these fall under non-economic damages. A lawyer will help calculate the amount based on your injuries and emotional distress.
