Five Reasons to Hire a Nashville Personal Injury Lawyer After an Accident

When people step onto the property of someone else, there is always a risk that accidents and injuries will occur. When they do, those who have been harmed may not be sure how to proceed, as their immediate concern may simply be to obtain the medical help they need so they can begin on the path towards recovery. If this has happened to you or to someone you love, there are many different reasons why you should immediately seek the help of a Nashville personal injury attorney. Below you’ll find five of these reasons.

To Begin the Insurance Claims Process

1One of the first entities to get involved with the aftermath of a slip and fall accident in Tennessee is the insurance company that provides coverage for that company. Statements that are provided to that insurance company could harm the injured person’s position, and this step should be handled by a Nashville personal injury lawyer.

To Quantify the Damages

2When someone is injured in a Nashville slip and fall accident, there are certain types of damages that can be sought for recovery. However, knowing which types could be available and how much to pursue should be questions answered by Tennessee slip and fall lawyers.

To Clarify the Legal Status of the Injured Person

3When someone slips and falls on the property of someone else and is injured, much will depend on the legal status of the injured person at the time when it comes to determining liability. The injured person will usually need to have been an invitee or a licensee in order to be able to pursue a recovery.

To Explore the Possibility of a Settlement

4After the initial steps have been taken with the property owner and/or the insurance company, the question regarding whether obtaining a fair settlement is possible must be answered quickly. This question should be answered by an experienced Nashville personal injury attorney who will be able to guide the process in the proper direction.

To Protect Your Legal Rights

5Finally, those who have been harmed in this manner need to be sure that they are taking every step possible to protect their legal rights. If this includes you or someone you love, seek the help of Nashville personal injury attorneys who have been fighting for the rights of the injured for many years. Contact Michael D.

    I was on I-40 coming into Nashville and a car ran into the back of me. The accident was serious, and I needed surgery. I did ask an attorney friend of mine whom I should call, and he said call Ponce Law. The folks at Ponce Law were outstanding and got us a large settlement.
