We handle all major personal injury cases including car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle wrecks, wrongful death, medical malpractice, premises liability, and workers' compensation claims throughout Tennessee.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay nothing unless we win your case. Our fees are typically a percentage of the recovery, with no upfront costs required.
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
Seek medical attention, document the scene with photos, exchange information with other parties, and contact our firm as soon as possible to protect your legal rights and evidence.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Tennessee?
Tennessee has a one-year statute of limitations for most personal injury cases. Contact our attorneys promptly to ensure timely filing and preservation of critical evidence.
Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?
Yes, under Tennessee's modified comparative fault rule, you can recover damages if you're less than 50% responsible for the accident, though your compensation will be reduced proportionally.
What makes your firm different from other personal injury lawyers?
