Tennessee stretches more than 400 miles from Memphis to the Tri-Cities, and Interstate 40 ties it together through Nashville and Knoxville while I-24, I-65, and I-75 carry the metro traffic. Serious crashes happen on all of them. Wherever you were hurt in Tennessee, the law that governs your claim is the same, including one of the shortest filing deadlines in the country. At Howe.Law Injury & Accident Lawyers, we represent people injured in crashes across the entire state.
Tennessee's one-year deadline is unforgiving
Tennessee gives you just one year from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit under Tenn. Code Ann. § 28-3-104, one of the shortest deadlines in the country. It extends to two years only if the at-fault driver is criminally charged and that case begins within the first year. Evidence disappears fast, so we begin building the case immediately, before camera footage is overwritten and the vehicles are repaired.
Tennessee's fifty percent rule
Under the rule from McIntyre v. Balentine, you recover nothing if you are found fifty percent or more at fault, and your recovery is reduced by your share below that line. Insurers push blame onto injured drivers to reach that threshold, and we answer with the physical evidence, the crash report, and reconstruction so fault is assigned accurately. The most seriously injured are treated at Tennessee's Level I trauma centers, including Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Regional One Health in Memphis, the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville, and Erlanger in Chattanooga.
Where your case is filed depends on where the crash happened
A Tennessee injury lawsuit is generally filed in the county where the crash occurred, in that county's Circuit Court. Knowing the right court and the local rules matters, and we handle cases across the state so your claim is filed where it belongs and handled by lawyers who know the venue.
Serving injured people across Tennessee
Howe.Law represents injured clients throughout Tennessee, with offices in Nashville, Knoxville, and Murfreesboro. From Memphis and the west, through Middle Tennessee, to Chattanooga and the Tri-Cities in the east, we serve people hurt anywhere in the state.
Reports, treatment, and filing your case
A crash inside a city is investigated by that city's police department, one in an unincorporated area by the county sheriff, and a wreck on an interstate such as I-40, I-24, I-65, I-75, or I-55 by the Tennessee Highway Patrol. We obtain the correct report along with your medical records and pursue your claim in the proper county court.
Speak with a Tennessee car accident attorney
You should not have to fight an insurer alone while a one-year clock runs, no matter where in Tennessee you were hurt. Call (844) 876-4357 for a free consultation about your crash. We work on a contingency fee basis, so you owe no attorney fee unless we recover compensation for you.
Common questions
I was hurt in a part of Tennessee far from your offices. Can you still represent me?
Yes. We handle injury cases across the entire state, and your case is filed in the county where the crash happened regardless of where our offices are. Distance does not limit our ability to represent you or to appear in the proper court.
How soon should I act after a Tennessee crash?
Right away. Tennessee's one-year deadline is among the shortest in the nation, and the evidence that proves fault is often gone within days. Early action lets us preserve it while you focus on recovery.
The insurer says I was partly at fault. Can I still recover?
Yes, as long as you are less than fifty percent at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your share, so the insurer has an incentive to exaggerate your role. We build the evidence to keep your share as low as the facts allow.
Cases We Handle
We represent injury victims across Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi in a wide range of accident and injury cases.

Richard was extremely helpful, and even though my case wasn't the best fit for his firm, he took extra time to give me direction and clarity to help me with the next steps... Far beyond what he needed to. I'm extremely grateful I contacted his firm.
I had a question about a collection we are going through and Richard himself answered the call and provided a lot of insight to what our next steps would be at no charge. I highly recommend this firm. They are here to help.
