Car Accident Lawyer Brentwood, TN
Skilled Brentwood, TN Car Accident Lawyer Advocating For You After A Wreck
Traveling around Brentwood and the greater Nashville area can be dangerous. Between the heavy traffic one would expect in one of Tennessee’s largest cities, plus plenty of year-round tourist and visitor traffic, there’s a good chance you’ll be involved in a car crash. If you are hurt in a collision, it’s likely because the other driver was negligent, such as playing on their phone while driving, paying more attention to the sights or street signs than the flow of traffic, or reckless driving like speeding or failing to follow posted traffic signs. You deserve solid legal representation to help you recover the money you deserve after a car collision, and our Brentwood, TN car accident lawyer can help make that happen.
At Patterson Bray PLLC, we handle contentious, complicated car accident claims every day. We understand the limits of Tennessee injury laws and what is needed for a successful outcome for your claim. Don’t let the other driver and their insurance company bully you into a low settlement. Call our firm today for a free consultation.
Winning Your Car Accident Case By Proving Negligence
To successfully win your case in court or achieve a good settlement out of court, you and your attorney must prove that the other driver was negligent. Many car crashes are disputed initially; we gather plenty of evidence showing that the other party didn’t take proper care for your safety and was responsible for the wreck. Witness statements, the police report, physical evidence from the scene and both vehicles, and dashcam footage are all part of the objective evidence that we use to build our case.
You are entitled to claim the full value of your material and non-material damages in a car collision claim. This includes current and future medical care, which we estimate with the input from medical experts who review your records and prognosis, plus the replacement or repair cost for your vehicle. You can claim lost wages from that missed time if you miss work. You can also claim compensation for the emotional trauma you suffered in the crash and your pain and suffering. We want to make sure that you get every penny you’re owed.
Legal Services Our Firm Provides
The attorneys at Patterson Bray PLLC provide comprehensive legal services for car accident victims. We begin by building the case and gathering evidence so you don’t have to, and we also act as the primary point of contact with the other party. This allows you to recover in peace and not worry about what to say to the insurance company.
We draft the initial lawsuit, file any necessary legal paperwork, and respond to paperwork and motions filed by the other side. Our lawyers are trained negotiators and can represent you in mediation and settlement negotiations. We strive for the highest settlement possible in your case; if we can’t settle, we’re prepared to go to court to fight for your rights.
Don’t try to fight for your rights after a car crash alone. Call our firm today for a free consultation with a Brentwood car accident lawyer so you understand your rights.
