CrashAidWhere a Hillsborough case is filed
The Thirteenth Judicial Circuit serves Hillsborough County. The main civil courthouse is the George E. Edgecomb Courthouse at 800 E. Twiggs Street, Tampa, FL 33602. The circuit's own directions page is on fljud13.org. A criminal justice annex sits at 401 N. Jefferson Street. Those are public court buildings, not CrashAid offices.
Court directions mention the Selmon Expressway and I-275 as ways to reach downtown. That is travel guidance from the court, not a statement about where crashes happen.
Roads a public study actually named
A January 2023 FDOT District 7 corridor plan summarizes a Hillsborough TPO Vision Zero list. The segments named there include Dale Mabry Highway from Hillsborough Avenue to Bearss Avenue, and 50th Street from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard to Hillsborough Avenue. The report is linked below. This page does not repeat older crash counts as if they were current.
Other Tampa roads, including I-275 and the Selmon, are busy highways. They are named here only so you can describe where a crash happened. They are not labeled high-crash corridors on this page.
What a Tampa request can and cannot do
Florida personal-injury protection still has a 14-day window for initial treatment if you want those benefits, and most negligence lawsuits over a crash now have a shorter filing deadline than they used to. A police report helps, and you can still send a request if you do not have one yet.
CrashAid reads the request and may share it with a participating Florida attorney. That is a referral. It is not legal advice, and it does not start a lawsuit.

Questions
Which courthouse handles a Tampa car crash case?
Hillsborough circuit cases are filed at the George E. Edgecomb Courthouse, 800 E. Twiggs Street, Tampa, FL 33602. Confirm the current division and hours on the Thirteenth Circuit site before you go.
Is Dale Mabry a documented high-crash segment?
FDOT's January 2023 corridor plan says the Hillsborough TPO Vision Zero list included Dale Mabry Highway from Hillsborough Avenue to Bearss Avenue, and 50th Street from MLK Boulevard to Hillsborough Avenue. Do not treat older counts in that report as today's totals.
Can I request a referral without a Tampa police report?
Yes. The form does not require a report. If Tampa Police, the Hillsborough County Sheriff, or the Florida Highway Patrol investigated, ask that agency or the FLHSMV crash portal for a copy when it is available.
Does CrashAid represent people in the Thirteenth Circuit?
No. CrashAid is a free attorney referral service, not a law firm. A participating attorney decides whether to take a case.
