North Miami Side Impact
Many people who have been in a T-bone or sideswipe car accident in North Miami assume that they are fully protected by their medical coverage and their car insurance.

What Types of Claims can I Make if I've Been in a Side-Impact Car Accident?Depending on the specifics of your case, you may have a few different types of lawsuits possible:
- A products liability lawsuit. If a mechanical failure, such as a brake failure, led to the accident, you may have a product liability lawsuit against the manufacturer of the vehicle that crashed into you.
- A personal injury lawsuit. If you have sustained serious injuries in a car accident and you and your lawyer can show that the at-fault driver was negligent in some manner, you may have a personal injury lawsuit.
- A wrongful death lawsuit. If you have lost a loved one in a side-impact car crash, you may be able to seek a wrongful death lawsuit if you are an immediate family member who has been financially impacted by the loss.
- A Worker's Compensation lawsuit. If you were working or in a company car at the time of the accident, you may have a workers compensation claim as a result of your accident.
If you have been injured in a side-impact car crash, you may be able to seek significant compensation for:
- Medical costs
- Long-term medical care
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
In many cases, side-impact car accidents are complex. In order to prove that the at-fault driver ran a red light or a stop sign, it is important to consult with witnesses and to gather evidence almost right away. For this reason, is important to consult with a personal injury attorney in North Miami immediately.
A personal injury attorney can start gathering documentation and evidence before it disappears. An attorney can also show whether an at-fault driver was distracted, fatigued, subject to road rage, or otherwise showed signs of negligence. A good attorney can also help seek out multiple liable parties, increasing the chances that you get fair compensation for your pain and suffering, lost wages, and other expenses.
