Aggressive, Skilled Attorney for Tennessee Car Accident Victims
Car accidents are common in the Nashville area and throughout Tennessee, but every victim's ordeal has its own characteristics and nuances. Whether your car wreck was caused by another driver's negligence or other factors, you may need professional legal help obtaining compensation to deal with medical bills, lost wages and other damages.
Your case will receive close personal attention at the Law Office of Robert L. Whitaker. When you hire me to pursue your valid claim, you get representation tailored to your needs and backed by decades of relevant experience. I will not assign important aspects of your case to a less experienced associate or paralegal. Let's begin with a free initial consultation focused on your needs and legal options.
An All-Out Effort to Secure Fair Compensation and Protect Your Future
Experience matters in case evaluation, investigation, case-building and negotiations or litigation after your car accident. I have the depth of knowledge to:
- Take account of the interests of your family as a whole after a wrongful death takes a loved one from you
- Protect your rights in all dealings with insurance companies and claims, in order to take full advantage of all applicable types of coverage
- File a well-prepared lawsuit targeting maximum compensation for injuries and losses
- Deal productively and assertively with cases involving an uninsured or underinsured motorist, a drunk driver, or other unique circumstances including injury to a child
Among my strengths after decades as an attorney are in-depth knowledge of insurance coverage issues, insurance defense strategies, and legal actions to push your case forward as efficiently as possible. If you are like most folks, after a collision you've tried to work with an insurance company to handle vehicle damage and repair. Most people find out right there that they are going to need a lawyer to get things done efficiently and fairly. If you are not being treated right by an insurance company on property damage issues, you can imagine what it might be like trying to handle your own personal injury claim. Fortunately, I can handle both for you and I don't charge any fees for resolving your vehicle repair issues.
Myths About Car Wreck Claims:
If it's a minor accident, you don't need to make an accident report.
WRONG – Insurance companies insist on a police report and you should, too.
If it's the other guy's fault, I don't have to use my insurance.
WRONG – It's often much better to use your own insurance to pay for property damage and medical bills. CALL ME AND I'LL EXPLAIN WHY.
If it's the other guy's fault, I don't need to report the crash to my insurance company.
WRONG – If you have auto insurance, ALWAYS report the loss as soon as practical. You could lose the right to some important coverage for your losses if you don't.
If it's the other guy's fault, his insurance company will pay for my medical bills as they come due.
WRONG – You are responsible for your medical bills for any treatment you receive. Medical providers will bill you. That is one of the reasons you need to use your own medical insurance if you have it. There are other good reasons that I'll be happy to explain.
The other guy's insurance company is there to help me.
WRONG – The other guy's insurance company is there to help him. Believe it or not, they owe you NO duty of care. They are representing their own insured, not you.
