> A side-impact collision can leave you with a totaled vehicle and devastating injuries. Get the best settlement available for your claim by working with a Boise T-bone accident lawyer.
Some of the scariest types of traffic accidents are side-impact collisions, also known as “T-bone” accidents. If you were hurt in one of these crashes, you will need a Boise T-bone accident lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates to investigate what happened and guide you through the process of seeking compensation.
Recovering from Trauma After a Side-Impact Collision
Getting T-boned can be a traumatic experience . Driving through a green light and getting hit from the side can make you question your safety on the road at all times. If you feel anxious and unsafe while driving, you may have developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Overcoming this could require expensive medication and a great deal of therapy.
Paying for the necessary counseling should be a part of the economic damages that are requested as part of your personal injury claim. If you are not able to feel safe while on the road, the negative emotional effects of your accident could also be considered in your damages.
A T-bone accident can potentially change your life forever and cost you in ways that you haven’t yet considered. For this reason, it’s crucial that you have a qualified legal team on your side to make sure you get the compensation you need to move forward.
Cause and Fault in T-Bone Accidents
Of course, getting compensated means first determining who was responsible for causing the side-impact collision in the first place. As these accidents most frequently occur in intersections, there are a few common scenarios.
In the majority of these cases, one of the drivers is guilty of distracted or intoxicated driving, which led him or hear to run a red light or stop sign and hit another car in the intersection. Things aren’t always this straightforward, however.
It’s possible that a traffic light malfunctioned, which could implicate the light’s manufacturer or the government entity responsible for maintaining the area to safe standards. It’s also possible that the other driver’s brakes went out. This might mean that a defective auto part was involved, and that the company responsible will need to be held liable.

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
