Understanding Head-On Collision Claims in Tampa
Head-on collisions are among the most dangerous types of crashes on Florida roads. These violent impacts often result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities — especially when they involve high speeds, distracted drivers, or impaired motorists. If you or someone you love was hurt in a head-on crash, you may be dealing with more than just physical recovery. You may be facing:
- Mounting medical bills and uncertain long-term care needs
- Time away from work or permanent loss of income
- Pain and trauma that disrupts daily life
- Frustration with insurers that delay or minimize your claim
- Legal uncertainty about your rights and options
At Stallworth Law, we represent people throughout Tampa who’ve suffered serious harm in head-on collisions and need help protecting their future. These are high-stakes cases — not only because of the severity of the injuries, but because insurance companies often dispute liability or try to shift blame.
Our goal is to help you secure the maximum compensation possible. That means:
- Conducting a thorough investigation to determine fault
- Identifying all potential sources of insurance coverage
- Calculating your current and future losses with the help of experts
- Handling all insurance negotiations and legal filings
- Preparing for trial when necessary to get justice for our clients
With Stallworth Law on your side, you don’t have to navigate this process alone — and you don’t have to accept less than what your claim is truly worth.
Who’s at Fault in a Head-On Collision?
Fault in a head-on collision usually comes down to which driver crossed into the wrong lane or otherwise violated the rules of the road. But determining fault isn’t always straightforward — especially when drivers give conflicting accounts or when serious injuries prevent victims from telling their side of the story.
Common causes of fault in head-on crashes include:
- Crossing the centerline into oncoming traffic
- Wrong-way driving on highways, one-way streets, or exit ramps
- Unsafe passing on two-lane roads
- Falling asleep at the wheel or losing control due to distraction or intoxication
- Turning into the wrong lane at intersections
- Misjudged or illegal left turns, especially when a driver cuts across oncoming traffic
- Driving while impaired, which contributes to many severe head-on crashes
Even if you were partially blamed for the crash, you may still be eligible to recover compensation under Florida’s comparative negligence law, as long as you're not found more than 50% at fault.
At Stallworth Law, we know how to investigate head-on collisions, gather physical and digital evidence (such as dashcam video or vehicle data), and work with accident reconstruction experts to prove what really happened and who should be held accountable.
What Damages Can You Recover After a Head-On Crash?
When Stallworth Law takes on your case, we fight to recover the full extent of your losses — not just what’s easy to calculate. That includes:
- Emergency medical expenses and long-term treatment costs
- Lost wages and reduced earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life
- Disability, disfigurement, or permanent impairment
- Funeral and burial costs in wrongful death cases
We often work with economists, medical experts, and life care planners to accurately assess your damages and ensure no category of compensation is overlooked.
Why Head-On Collisions Require Experienced Legal Help
Head-on collisions almost always involve serious injury, but that doesn’t mean insurance companies will offer serious compensation. These cases are typically high-stakes, and insurers are motivated to protect their bottom line.
Stallworth Law offers something many firms can’t: trial-tested experience and a proactive approach from day one. Mark Stallworth spent years as a prosecutor before founding his own firm. He’s handled high-profile, high-pressure cases and knows how to build powerful narratives that resonate with judges, juries, and insurance adjusters alike.
When we take your case, we handle everything:
- Investigating liability and identifying all possible defendants
- Managing all communication and negotiations with insurance companies
- Collecting medical records and expert reports to document your injuries
- Pushing back on delay tactics and lowball settlement offers
- Preparing to go to trial if the other side refuses to pay fairly
