Car Wreck Attorney in Nashville

The whole point of hiring a car wreck attorney is to protect your rights after the crash. Secondly, it gives you a better chance of receiving fair compensation for your injuries, damages, and losses from the accident. That's because the right attorney will help investigate the accident, collect evidence to substantiate your claim and determine liability, negotiate settlements with the liable parties, and represent you in court if necessary. 

You should contact a car wreck attorney as soon as possible if you've suffered serious injuries or lost a loved one in the car wreck. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better your chances of obtaining favorable results. 

Money shouldn't be a problem. At Morgan and Morgan, our car wreck attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. In other words, we only get paid if we win, which also means that there are no upfront costs involved. 

You won't run out of options when looking for the right attorney to represent you in Nashville. However, to ensure you hire the right lawyer, consider the following factors:

• Their experience with car wreck cases.
• Their track record of success.
• Their reputation in the legal community.
• Whether they have access to powerful legal resources to sustain the case. 

At Morgan and Morgan, we've handled over 700,000 personal injury cases and recovered more than $25 billion for the injured across the nation.

Tennessee follows the traditional fault-based system when it comes to car accidents. Therefore, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related costs. If the other party is judged to have been extremely negligent or reckless (assuming the case goes to court), you may also be awarded punitive damages. However, this decision is entirely up to the judge or jury adjudicating the case. 

Each case is different. We've settled some of these cases out of court, while others have had to go through litigation. In most cases, settling out of court takes a shorter time than taking the battle in court. Your attorney will let you know the projected timeline for your case once you sign up with us. 

Yes, you can. Tennessee follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. However, you cannot recover damages if you are 50 percent or more at fault. But don't let that discourage you from fighting for your rights. Tell us about your case. We might be able to help you maximize your compensation.
