Knoxville Automobile / Car Accident Lawyer

Automobile crashes and truck accidents cause damage to the motor vehicles and result in serious personal injury to those inside. Individuals can be severely injured in a car accident even though there appears to be little or no damage to the automobile. Automobiles are designed to absorb some of the force of a vehicle crash. Human beings are not designed to absorb these kinds of forces. This is why muscles tear and bones break. Several insurance companies and their attorneys will assert if there is a minor amount of damage to a car, there must be little or no injury to the individual. The personal injury attorneys at the Garza Law Firm know this is not the case. Tennessee personal injury attorneys must be prepared to counter the insurance companies defense. At the Garza Law Firm, we realize individuals can sustain terrible injuries where there is little damage to the motor vehicle. This is why we consult with the very best automobile accident experts to identify what forces were involved in each Tennessee car wreck where forces are at issue. We also know horrifying injuries are almost certain where there is a significant amount of damage to the motor vehicle. In these types of cases, it is important to have experts translate the car accident data to determine what forces were sustained.

Regrettably, some Tennessee motorists have no car insurance. Other times, out of state drivers only have the insurance required by their home state. This can be as low as $10,000! If you are involved in a car accident with one of these motorists, there may be little or no car insurance to compensate for your medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. You can protect yourself in these cases by purchasing Uninsured Motorist coverage and Underinsured Motorist coverage. This way, if you are injured in a car accident with one of these drivers, your Tennessee personal injury attorney can recover for your injuries from your own insurance company.

Tennessee law allows car wreck victims to recover their medical bills, lost wages as well as damages for pain and suffering. Insurance companies determine the value of a personal injury claim by evaluating the amount of medical bills you must pay, your past and future lost wages, the amount of pain and suffering you experienced or will continue to experience and what residual disabilities you may have. Sometimes, other factors are taken into account in determining how much your personal injury claim is worth. For instance, if the at fault driver’s actions was in complete disregard for the safety and well being of other people, you may be entitled to punitive damages. In Tennessee, punitive damages are designed to punish people for their bad conduct.
