Get a Free ConsultationHow long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Tennessee?
+In Tennessee, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. That means you generally must file a lawsuit within two years or you risk losing your right to seek compensation. There are exceptions that can extend or shorten this deadline depending on the circumstancesâsuch as claims against a government entity, or cases involving minors or delayed discovery of injury. It's important to contact an attorney promptly to preserve evidence and your legal options.
How much is my personal injury case worth?
+The value of a personal injury case depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, future care needs, pain and suffering, and whether liability is clear. Each case is unique, and settlements or verdicts vary widely based on those factors. An attorney can evaluate medical records, bills, wage loss, and other damages to provide a more accurate estimate. We review the full pictureâincluding potential long-term needsâto determine what fair compensation should look like for your claim.
Do I have to pay anything upfront to start my case?
+Our firm handles most personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay attorney fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf. This allows injured people to pursue claims without immediate out-of-pocket legal costs. There may be minor case-related expenses advanced by the firm (such as obtaining medical records or expert reports), but those costs are typically repaid from any recovery. We will explain our fee arrangement and any potential costs during your initial consultation.
How long will my personal injury case take?
+The timeline for a personal injury case depends on factors like the complexity of the injury, the need for medical treatment and maximum medical improvement, whether liability is disputed, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Some claims resolve in a few months; others may take a year or more. We aim to resolve cases efficiently while protecting your rights and recovery. We will keep you informed about key milestones and provide realistic expectations based on the specifics of your situation.
What should I do after a car accident in Memphis?
+After a car accident, prioritize safety and medical care: call 911 if anyone is injured, seek medical attention promptly, and follow your doctor's instructions. If possible, gather information at the sceneâphotos, contact details of witnesses, and the other driver's insurance information. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies without consulting an attorney. Contact a Memphis personal injury attorney as soon as possible so your claim can be preserved, evidence gathered, and your rights protected during communications with insurers.
