Accidents happen all the time, and they can have devastating consequences. Accidents can occur at home, at work, or on the road, and they can also occur in publicly or privately accessible spaces such as schools, hotels, business premises, hospitals, and nursing homes. Tennessee is an at-fault state, so if you were injured because of the actions, negligence, mistakes, or incompetence of another party, you may have grounds for a personal injury claim against the at-fault individual or party. Contact an experienced Nashville personal injury lawyer with Brighter Day^SM Law today. Our accident attorneys can provide a private case evaluation to review your legal options and responsibilities in a personal injury case.

These are losses and damages that should not be taken lightly. Contact an accident attorney with Brighter Day^SM Law today to learn more about how we can help you recover the compensation you are legally entitled to.

Determining Liability with an Experienced Nashville Personal Injury Lawyer

Tennessee’s at-fault personal injury rules require the injured party to identify the at-fault party and back their claims with evidence. As such, one of the most important first steps in any personal injury case is correctly identifying who caused an accident, and how.

Based on the case evidence, our accident attorney can pinpoint the at-fault party for you. In many cases, the at-fault party can be:

• Other drivers, vehicle owners, or commercial vehicle operators in the case of a vehicle, pedestrian, or road accident;
• Maintenance teams or companies for accidents caused by the poor servicing or repairing of vehicles, roads, or machinery;
• Healthcare workers and institutions, including doctors, nurses, and healthcare facilities such as hospitals or nursing homes;
• Business owners or the operator of business premises for business premises and workplace accidents;
• An animal owner or caretaker for animal-related accidents such as dog bites.

Our Nashville personal injury lawyer will help you identify the at-fault party responsible for your accident. Our accident attorney will also identify the relevant insurance policies that apply to your case, as well as the claim limits that will determine how much you can seek in compensation. Our team will also gather evidence, interview eyewitnesses, submit all relevant paperwork, and negotiate a fair settlement on your behalf. We also represent injured parties in court if a settlement is not reached.

Quantify Your Losses with Our Accident Attorney

How is “fair” quantified in terms of settlements and payouts? How can you determine that the amount you wish to seek as a settlement or the amount you want to sue for has a sound legal basis?

The answer lies in understanding the insurance rules and limits that apply to your case and gathering convincing evidence of your losses.

Depending on the specifics of your case, you can recover the following if you have substantive proof of these losses:

• Medical treatment expenses, which can be proven using treatment bills or doctor’s invoices, and they can also include medical device, medication, and treatment-related expenses;
• Lost income and/or lost earning potential, which can be proven using pay stubs or employer statements;
• Property and/or vehicle damage, which can be proven using repair shop invoices or service team estimates;
• Pain, suffering, emotional trauma, and other intangible damages that can be quantified using professional medical testimony;
• The loss of the enjoyment and quality of life and the loss of companionship or service of a loved one.

Gathering this evidence and demonstrating that your claim is sound, valid, and within acceptable bounds as far as the law and the applicable insurance policies are concerned can be difficult, which is why you should speak with our Nashville personal injury lawyer as soon as you or a loved one was involved in an accident.
