Nashville Car Accident Attorney
Auto Accident Attorney in Nashville
I have been representing people injured in car accidents in Nashville and across Tennessee for almost twenty years. I have represented many families who have lost a family member because of a wrongful death resulting from an accident, including car accidents. I am dedicated to achieving superior results for clients by obtaining, for each client I represent, the highest possible amount of money.
My peers, who are other lawyers with whom I have practiced for years, and judges, have given me a Martindale-Hubbell “ AV” rating (the highest rating available for legal ability and ethical standards). Obtaining the highest settlement or verdict for a client requires commitment, skill, experience (with judges, juries, defense lawyers and insurance adjusters), innovation, determination, appropriate use of technology, access to and knowledge of expert witnesses, and prompt and ongoing communication with the client. I commit all of the above skills, experiences, qualities and resources to each client that I represent. Most of my clients are referred to me by other lawyers and former clients.
I realized, many years ago, that, if a lawyer (or a law firm) takes on too many personal injury cases, the lawyer (or law firm) cannot consistently achieve excellent results for his clients. I also realized that achieving the best monetary result for a client requires that the lawyer who will be trying the client’s case handle all of the significant aspects of the case. When important legal tasks that ought to be done by the lead trial lawyer are delegated to junior lawyers or to paralegals, the value of a client’s case becomes diluted. lf you retain me, from our initial meeting all the way through the end of your case, I will handle all of the significant aspects of your case. I will not hand off the important tasks that will help build the value of your case to paralegals or to junior lawyers who will not be trying your case. When you need to talk with me about your case or injuries, I will call you back promptly. Most of the time, I am able to return a client’s call on the same day I received the call. I will be the lawyer who will talk with your doctors and other medical care providers in order to understand your injuries so that your doctors’ trial testimony is presented in the most effective way to the jury.
A lawyer can obtain the highest amount of money for a client only if the insurance company and the defense lawyer are convinced that the lawyer will actually try the case if that is what it takes to get a fair recovery. The only way to convince defense lawyers and insurance adjusters that your lawyer is prepared to take your case to trial, and to do a thorough job presenting your case at trial, is for you to retain a lawyer that puts in the many, many hours of necessary hard work which are required to build your case to its optimal monetary value.
Have you been injured in a car accident in Nashville?
If you've been injured in a car accident in the Nashville area, you may have the right to seek financial compensation for the injuries you have sustained. You may be able to recover money that will cover your medical bills, damage to your vehicle, lost wages and various other expenses or damages the accident has caused. However, it is helpful to work with an attorney who is experienced in handling these types of claims. It's easy for the insurance company to try to take advantage of you if you are unsure of your rights or the true value of your claim. You may find yourself in a situation where you are being blamed for a car accident you were not responsible for causing. A car accident lawyer can work to protect your rights and financial needs while seeking the highest amount of monetary compensation possible - all while you focus on recovering and spending time with loved ones.
Some of the types of cases which I handle are:
For personal injury cases, I offer free initial consultations. An initial consultation will answer many of your questions about your car accident case, and your rights.
