Knoxville Truck Accident Attorneys

18 Wheeler Accidents in Tennessee

Trucking is a necessary part of our national infrastructure. While most truckers are conscientious professionals, a small minority may commit acts of negligence that can put the public at risk. While this may be rare, the sheer size and power of modern rigs means that when it does occur, the results can lead to catastrophic injury.

If you or a loved one has been the victim of a trucking accident, you probably have quite a bit on your mind right now. The process of healing alone can consume most of your time and attention. But there are other important issues you may not yet have had time to consider. Will your injury prevent you from returning to work or force you into a lower paying job? How will you make up for the wages you lost during your recovery? Who will pay your medical bills? The Knoxville truck accident attorneys at Menefee & Brown, P.C. can help you answer these questions. We provide a free initial consultation to determine if filing a lawsuit would be in your best interest.

Legal Proceedings in Truck Accidents

Even in cases where the trucker or trucking company is not denying fault, the process of getting compensation to which you are legally entitled can be difficult. The responsible party or its insurance company may assume you do not know what your claim is worth. Or they may stall, hoping accumulating bills will force you to become desperate and take a low settlement. Having an accident lawyer in Knoxville on your side can change that.

We can evaluate your claim to determine its potential worth, taking into account the following:

• Past and future lost wages
• Past and future medical expenses
• Lost property
• Loss of domestic services for your household
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress for you and your family

Once we determine the potential value of your claim, our lawyer can aggressively negotiate with the responsible party to secure a fair settlement. If they refuse to offer a fair settlement, our truck accident attorneys can use their 30+ years of combined experience to zealously and efficiently pursue your claim in court.
