According to the latest statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), accidents are the fourth leading cause of death among Tennessee residents. It’s ranked third in the U.S. for traffic fatalities.

Serious personal injuries can include death, paralysis, permanent disfigurement, brain injuries, herniated disks, broken bones, amputations, and other permanent debilitating injuries. Personal injuries can result in death or permanent disability, with the resultant loss of earnings that can be devastating to a family. In these types of cases, it is important to recover for the future loss of income. If such an injury has occurred, it will be necessary to have a life care plan prepared by an expert to ensure that the full extent of the damages are properly understood, analyzed, and explained in order to ensure that fair compensation is achieved. Certain injuries can require lifetime medications and lifetime care.

In cases of serious injury or death, it is often necessary to take immediate steps to preserve evidence, and it is often necessary to immediately employ appropriate experts to analyze the accident scene or otherwise analyze what caused the injury (i.e., the defective product, etc.), and/or it is often necessary to employ investigators. And sometimes a autopsy is necessary to prove the cause of death. Sometimes cases can be won or lost depending on what is done in the hours and days following a tragic loss. In such cases, please do not delay!
