What We Handle

Car and Truck Accidents

Whether a rear-end collision, multi-vehicle crash, or commercial truck accident, we investigate every angle. Insurance companies move quickly to minimize your claim. We move faster.

Slip and Fall / Premises Liability

Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions. When they fail and someone is hurt, we hold them accountable for medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Wrongful Death

When negligence takes a life, the surviving family has legal rights. We pursue wrongful death claims with the seriousness and care these cases deserve, working to secure the compensation your family is owed.

Medical Malpractice and Negligence

Healthcare providers who deviate from the standard of care can cause life-altering harm. These cases require deep investigation and credible expert support. We have both.

Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Truck and delivery vehicle crashes involve complex insurance structures, federal safety regulations, and corporate defendants. We have the experience to handle every layer of these cases.

Police and Jail Abuse

When law enforcement or jail staff violate civil rights or use excessive force, you have legal options. We hold government actors accountable in both state and federal court.

Workplace Injuries

Serious workplace injuries may involve third-party liability claims that go beyond workers’ compensation. We evaluate every angle to maximize your recovery and protect your rights.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Tennessee?

Generally 1 year from the date of injury under Tennessee’s statute of limitations. Some exceptions apply, but the rule is simple: do not wait. Evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and insurance companies use delay against you.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Tennessee follows comparative fault rules. You may still recover as long as you are less than 50% at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Don’t assume you can’t recover just because you share some responsibility.

Do I have to go to court?

Many cases settle before trial. But we prepare every case as if it will go to a jury, which is why our settlements tend to be stronger. Insurance companies offer more when they know your attorneys are ready and willing to try the case.

What does it cost to hire you?

Personal injury cases are handled on contingency. You pay nothing unless we win. There are no upfront fees, no hourly billing, and no cost to you if we don’t recover. Your first consultation has no charge.
