According to the Connecticut Crash Data Repository, there have been 7,870 intersection crashes in Bridgeport between January 2022 and February 2025, most of which have resulted in injury or death. In 2022, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reported that 22% of vehicle crash fatalities involved side-impact collisions.

Connecticut uses a fault-based system to resolve all vehicle accident cases involving more than one driver, meaning the at-fault driver is liable for the resulting damages. In order to secure compensation for the damages you suffered in a side-impact accident, you must be ready to prove the exact cause of the accident and identify the driver responsible. A Bridgeport side-impact accident lawyer can gather the evidence you need to establish fault.

Recovering From Your Side-Impact Accident in Bridgeport

Your attorney can build your case and determine the optimal method of securing compensation for your damages. Every Connecticut driver is required to have auto insurance that meets minimum coverage requirements, so filing a claim against the at-fault driver’s policy is likely to be an important step in your recovery process. However, you could encounter a host of complex issues with your insurance claim.

An experienced Bridgeport side-impact accident lawyer can guide you through your negotiations with an insurance carrier and build a personal injury case for you if necessary. Side-impact accidents can easily result in life-changing injuries. Many victims suffer broken bones, traumatic brain damage, spinal cord injuries, and severe harm to internal organs.

A successful personal injury case could potentially secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and the pain and suffering you experienced. A Bridgeport side-impact accident lawyer can also provide compassionate representation if you must pursue a wrongful death claim following a fatal accident involving a member of your family.
