Bringing a Personal Injury Lawsuit for a Car Accident

Our personal injury law firm works with professional engineers and investigators to understand the underlying cause of your car accident. Our accident lawyers serving Rogersville will help you determine how the car accident was caused and who is at fault.

If a defective auto part caused your accident, you could have a claim against the auto part manufacturer, or even against the automobile manufacturer. A competent lawyer can walk you through the legal process, answering all of your questions along the way.

What Injuries Can Come From a Car Crash?

Common car accident injuries include:

  • Back and spinal cord trauma
  • Brain injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Bruises, lacerations, and scarring
  • Burns
  • Head and neck trauma
  • Internal injuries
  • Permanent disability or paralysis
  • Whiplash
  • Wrongful death

Because many car accident injuries can take time to manifest—internal injuries and brain trauma are especially easy not to notice right away—it is imperative you seek medical attention after a collision, even if you feel relatively unhurt. Otherwise, injuries caused by whiplash as well as internal bleeding and brain damage can lead to serious, permanent injuries or even death.

Car Accidents & Catastrophic Injuries

Our car accident lawyer serving Rogersville has handled many complex injury cases involving spinal cord injuries and brain injuries. These types of injuries can have life-changing consequences, though sometimes the extent of the injury is subtle and requires careful testing to fully understand.

Our attorneys bring in highly qualified experts in the field to testify about the scientific intricacies, and with our recovery fee payment plan, all the costs are paid by the firm until an award is delivered. We also work closely with healthcare professionals to understand the extent of injuries and the short- and long-term consequences for you and your family.

Car Accident Cases We’ve Handled

Some of our successful cases have involved:

  • Spinal cord injury: Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of spinal cord injuries, followed by falls. The spinal cord does not have to be severed for a loss of function to occur.
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI): TBI is a medical term describing the damage to the brain caused by sudden impact or physical force to the head. This type of injury often results when the head hits a windshield or when the brain collides with the skull due to the sudden impact of the collision.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one suffered a catastrophic injury in a car accident that led to their wrongful death, your family may be entitled to compensation.

    "He is Awesome!"
    A couple months ago my family was put in a situation in which we had to find an attorney immediately. With being over 9 hours away from Tennessee we didn't know where to turn but to google. After seeing the reviews for Mr. Stapleton we called his office right away. Mr. Stapleton contacted us shortly after. He was honest and upfront from the beginning. His professionalism, communication, and charisma was phenomenal! Whenever we had questions he was there to answer. He always kept us well informed and never mislead us. He has always been straight forward regarding the case. Today we walked out of court with the outcome we wanted. Definitely recommend Mr. Stapleton to anyone who needs an attorney. He is AWESOME!!!
