When Should I Contact a Personal Injury Law Firm After a Crash?

Contact a firm soon after getting medical care. Early action preserves evidence and protects your rights. Tennessee generally allows one year from the accident date to file a claim.

What Can I Recover in an Injury Claim?

A claim may include medical bills, lost wages, vehicle damage, and pain and suffering. The right mix depends on your injuries and how the accident happened.

Will the Other Driver's Insurance Company Contact Me?

It is common for an insurer to call after a crash. Avoid giving recorded statements until you understand your rights. We can handle that communication for you.

Do You Handle Truck Accident Cases?

Yes, the firm handles truck and tractor-trailer accident cases as well as car and motorcycle claims. Commercial traffic on I-81 makes these cases a meaningful part of the practice.

What Happens During the Free Case Evaluation?

Serving Blountville and Sullivan County

Blountville sits in one of Northeast Tennessee's busiest traffic corridors. Interstate 81 runs through the area, and crashes near mile markers 63 through 71 appear regularly in local news.

US-11W links Blountville to Kingsport and Bristol and carries a heavy mix of commuter and commercial traffic. SR-394 and SR-126 add more volume toward the Bristol Motor Speedway area. The Tri-Cities Regional Airport brings freight and travel traffic off I-81 via SR-357.

Serious injuries can follow crashes on roads like these, and insurance disputes can follow the injuries. Our office is at 121 W. Market St. in Kingsport, connected to Blountville by US-11W. We work with Blountville residents who need clear answers after an injury.

Injury Cases We Handle

The firm focuses on injuries caused by someone else's negligence. Common cases include:
