About Us

Truck accidents may cause extensive damage and injuries to those involved. The sheer weight and speed of semi trucks increase the odds of having a serious injury or even a wrongful death. The injured person and the family deserve compensation to cover injury cost, medical care, plus any lost wages. With extremely sensitive cases such as these, time is of the essence.

Rapid response for truck accidents are critical and an experienced personal injury lawyer is necessary for this type of personal injury litigation. Our firm has its own airplane, thus, our personal injury lawyers can leave on short notice to assist in your truck accident case. Serving client's for multiple years of practice, our law firm is known throughout Tennessee for prompt truck accident investigation and thorough trial preparation. 

Tractor-trailer drivers and their companies are responsible for the safety and maintenance of the big rig and for following Tennessee’s Federal Regulatory Requirements. 

This type of accident has many different levels of complexity. Below are some important details for these types of accident cases:

• The tractor and trailer may have different owners
• The cargo may have another owner
• It is critical that evidence is gathered quickly 
• Photographs of the scene must be taken
• Any witnesses will need to be interviewed
• Road marks and debris should be carefully analyzed by an accident reconstruction professional
• The vehicle's "black box" must be used for evidence, providing information as to speed, driving hours and more

Your biggest concern after a tractor-trailer accident is your recovery from the accident's injuries. We share that concern. That is why we offer a rapid response time including a medical doctor and nurse on staff who will follow your medical treatment and work with your doctors to document the extent of your injuries. In most semi-truck accidents, the injuries can be severe and medical care may be necessary for years. We want you to have the compensation deserved for these types of hardships.
