When you or a loved one has been injured — from a car accident, medical mistake, slip-and-fall accident, dog bite or any other injury caused by someone else's negligence — you need and deserve to be fairly compensated.
Our Murfreesboro personal injury attorneys want you to have what you need for full recovery, and we have been successful on behalf of our clients, with settlements and verdicts of a million-plus dollars.
We are successful personal injury attorneys because we work hard for our clients, and we have extensive experience as trial lawyers. Our attorneys know how to present and argue your case effectively — in court or in insurance settlement negotiations.
Tell Us How You Were Injured: Free Consultation
There is no charge for personal injury cases unless we obtain compensation for you. While you focus on healing, we will focus on obtaining the financial funds you need. To obtain the best results for you, your case needs to be thoroughly prepared with trial in mind. Many insurance defense firms know that some injury attorneys are not willing to go to trial and want to settle a case as quickly and as easily as possible. Handling a case in this manner does not normally get you the results you deserve. We are always prepared to carry a case to trial. Tell us about your accident at no obligation to you.

Car and motor vehicle accident injuries
If you have been in a motor vehicle accident, you can recover compensation for your injuries and for damage to your property. For personal injuries, you can recover: the reasonable costs of necessary medical care, your loss of earnings, physical and mental pain and suffering, disfigurement, loss of quality of life, and/or compensation for permanent injuries or disabilities. Medical expenses and lost earnings can be calculated mathematically. The other elements of damages are determined in court by judges or juries based upon what they believe is fair for your particular case.
Trucking accident injuries
All truckers and commercial trucking companies must comply with the Federal Motor Safety Regulations for the privilege of operating on American roadways. These laws are minimum safety standards to protect the public. Drivers are not allowed to drive when fatigued and cannot exceed maximum hours of operation. Drivers are not allowed to operate trucks when they are under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or when they are not otherwise medically healthy. Trucking companies are required to properly train their drivers and must make sure drivers follow the rules. Trucking companies must only hire qualified drivers and must ensure compliance not only with Federal regulations, but also state laws and commercial driver's license standards. Truckers and/or the company they work for many times ignore the laws in place in pursuit of more profits. This can put you and your family in danger.
Premises liability/Slip and Fall
Owners and occupiers of property, including businesses, residences, apartment complexes, parking lots, and others, are responsible to keep property in a safe condition. There are many conditions that can create an unsafe environment including falling objects and slipping and tripping hazards such as spills, holes and loose boards or steps. Owners and occupiers must inspect their properties to make sure they are reasonably safe. If they don't and someone gets injured as a result of their negligence, the owner or occupier of the land is responsible for those injuries.
Animal bites
Owners of animals have a duty to keep them on a leash and within a fenced-in yard. Owners also have an equally important duty to warn and protect the public from a dangerous or aggressive animal. If you or a family member has been attacked, bitten or otherwise harmed by an animal, the owner may be legally responsible for any damages you have suffered.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice cases involve alleged negligence on behalf of a health care provider, which results in harm to a patient. We handle cases on behalf of plaintiffs, the injured parties, against all kinds of defendants, such as doctors, nurses, hospital workers, dentists and medical technicians. Because of our years of experience handling a wide variety of cases, we understand the legal complexities and strategies necessary to successfully litigate a medical malpractice case. Our support staff is adept in acquiring and understanding complex medical records. We work frequently with expert witnesses. Our goal is to make sure the injured party is fully compensated for injuries, lost wages or other damages suffered.
