Memphis Car Accident Lawyers

Protecting car accident victims in Memphis, Jackson, and beyond

You are driving to work, listening to the radio and at peace with the world when the unthinkable happens: another driver appears out of nowhere and hits you. The next things you hear are the radio, still playing a favorite song, and the sound of sirens, and you are trying to recover from the shock. This is what it can be like when you’re in a serious car accident.

This scenario is too often played out all over West Tennessee. Lives are tragically altered every day by car accidents on our roadways, and it’s usually because someone has made a mistake. It could be a hazardous road condition, a poorly marked road, or an inattentive or impaired driver. Whatever the cause, you must deal with the end results, which may include a personal injury lawsuit. If you are injured in a car wreck, Bailey & Greer, PLLC, is by your side and ready to help. We help families just like yours throughout Memphis, Jackson, and all of West Tennessee to obtain the compensation they deserve after a car crash.

According to data from the Tennessee Dept. of Safety and Homeland Security (TDOSHS), there were 208,144 police-reported car accidents with 50,185 injuries and 958 fatalities in Tennessee in 2017.

What type of car accident cases do we accept?

We are interested in representing clients who have suffered a serious injury in a Memphis car crash. If your injuries require a hospital stay and lost time from work, you need to contact Bailey & Greer, PLLC, to learn about your options for recovering compensation right away.

Common types of car accidents

Under Tennessee law, you can only collect compensation for an accident if you were less than 50% at fault for that accident. In some cases – say, if you are rear-ended while waiting at a red light – the fault is clearly with the other driver. But in other cases, proving that you played no role in your own accident or injuries can be challenging. Bailey & Greer has helped victims just like you obtain the compensation they need after an accident involving:

  • Head-on collisions with moving or stationary objects
  • Crashes involving wild life
  • Broadside collisions or T-bone accidents
  • Sideswipe accidents
  • Rear-end collisions

Whether you were hit by a distracted driver or your car’s safety features failed to engage correctly, Bailey & Greer offers you knowledgeable and competent counsel based on years of trial experience.

Examples of injuries from car crashes

Whether it is called an accident, a collision, a wreck, or a crash, when a vehicle hits another vehicle, a pedestrian, or a stationary object, the results are always costly, and sometimes, the results are fatal. With so many cars on the road at any given time, it is almost miraculous that people manage to make it through the day without having an accident.

The results of these traffic crashes often include serious injuries, such as the following:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Neck and spinal cord injuries
  • Internal bleeding
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Broken bones (hip, collarbone, arm, leg)
  • Mental trauma
  • Organ damage
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Permanent vision or hearing loss
