T-bone accident lawyer in Loris, SC

Angle-of-impact proof for local intersections

Side-impact crashes cause severe injuries because vehicle doors offer little protection. Josephs Law Firm PA uses crush patterns, wheelbase displacement, and occupant kinematics to show how the collision happened—often tied to a missed red light or failed left turn. If alcohol is suspected, learn how drunk driving accidents affect liability decisions and potential punitive damages.

What we collect and why it matters

  • Photos of intrusion into the passenger compartment
  • Event data recorder (EDR) when available
  • Intersection layout, sightlines, and signal phases
  • Medical imaging and treating-provider notes tying injuries to the side hit

Complex cases with low insurance limits may need UM/UIM options to reach full value; we review stacking and policy coordination.
