When Should I Get an Attorney for My Car Accident?

It never hurts to speak with an attorney after any car accident that wasn’t your fault. Far too often, people assume insurance will cover the accident when, in fact, they refuse.

When that happens, you can end up responsible for a lot more than fixing your car. Expenses include:

  • medical care
  • lost wages
  • property damage
  • physical therapy
  • and more

In addition, car accident law has a statute of limitations. You don’t want to miss important deadlines without realizing it.

With that in mind, we recommend you get the ball rolling as fast as possible. We offer a free consultation, no strings attached, to discuss your options. You can get to know us and how we work before making a commitment. 

Why Do I Need a Car Accident Lawyer? Can I Represent Myself? 

When you need to go up against insurance companies, you’re battling some of the biggest corporations in the world.

Claims adjusters and the companies behind them have an obligation to their shareholders to keep costs as low as possible. That means after your car accident, they set a goal to leave you with as little compensation as they can, which is almost always less than you deserve.

We know what it takes to balance the scales in your favor. Our law firm fights for your interests and understand how to navigate all the obstacles the other side will throw in your way. 

That means a much higher chance of success in your case. With the right lawyer by your side, you’ll be much more likely to get the compensation you need to heal and move on with your life.

Car Accident FAQs

What Does A Car Accident Lawyer Do?

We act as your legal representative. Instead of having to deal with insurance companies yourself, your lawyer handles the negotiations for you.

This provides several benefits. First and foremost, legal representation is critical for you to receive the compensation you need and deserve. Not only do we understand how the system works, but we also carry the weight of our legal experience with us. So with us at your side, insurance companies are much more likely to negotiate on your behalf.

We also allow you to focus on recovery instead of worrying about legal matters. You can get treatment, go back to work, and spend time with your family while our team works hard on your case.

How Do You Prove Fault In A Car Accident Case?

To strengthen your claim, our legal team performs an extensive investigation.

This research can include gathering testimony from eyewitnesses, videos from the area, police reports, hospital records, and similar evidence. We may also take depositions and call in expert witnesses.

All of these things make your case stronger, which in turn helps with settlement negotiations or in court.

When Should I Hire A Car Accident Lawyer?

Once you’ve been in a car accident, you should speak with a lawyer as soon as possible.

Car accident cases come with statutes of limitations. That means you only have a certain amount of time to file your claim before it’s too late. In Tennessee, this time limit kicks in at one year after the initial accident. If you’ve lost a loved one in a car accident, you still only have one year to pursue legal action.

It may take some time to choose the right attorney, and you may face delays from your accident and recovery. So you want to move as quickly as possible for the best chance of success. Contact us today to get started.

How Do Car Accident Lawyers Charge For Their Services?

Our car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. That means we only get paid if we win your case or get a settlement for you. Our fee is typically a percentage of the compensation you receive. This makes it possible for us to represent you without any upfront costs for you.

In addition, it means there’s no financial risk on your part. We fund the investigation for your case and all of the legal work, with the belief in our own success on your behalf. And we communicate with you every step of the way.

What Kinds Of Compensation Can I Get For My Car Accident?

Our job is to help you recover from all of the losses you sustained because of your car accident. So to that end, our car accident lawyers can help you seek various types of compensation, including:

  • medical expenses
  • lost wages
  • property damage
  • pain and suffering
  • emotional distress, and in some cases,
  • punitive damages for particularly reckless or egregious behavior.

When you first come in for your initial consultation, we’ll discuss what kind of damages we might pursue on your behalf.

What If The Other Driver Doesn’t Have Insurance Or Is Underinsured?

In cases where the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, your own insurance policy might include coverage. There may also be other options to pursue on your behalf. Our experienced car accident lawyers can help you explore all available options to seek compensation.

How Do I Get Started?

If you’ve been in a car accident, reach out to us as soon as possible to have a free conversation about your case.

Contact us online today or call us at 901-327-2100.

We’ll discuss your situation and any complications that might be involved. If you have any questions about the other side’s insurance policies or whether your case might be complicated, we can give you our professional opinion.

At this first meeting, we’ll also discuss the potential of your claim. We can’t predict anything upfront, but you’ll leave with an idea of what to expect were we to represent you.

Our attorneys are excited to meet with you and help you get the recovery you need and deserve.
