If you are the victim of a personal injury accident, we can help you obtain the care and compensation you deserve. Our Knoxville, Tennessee personal injury attorneys can assess the extent of your injuries and damages and pursue deserved compensation for: Medical costs We want to help you recover these unforeseen costs associated with hospitalization and treatment. Lost wages Suffering an injury can mean you need to take time off work. We understand how stressful it can be to miss out on expected income. Our goal is to keep you financially stable now and in the future, even after an accident. Pain and suffering There is monetary compensation available for emotional grief and pain and suffering. Our attorneys will help you determine how much you might be able to recover after an accident. Rehabilitation Once you are on the road to recovery, our attorneys want to be able to help you and your family by obtaining compensation that will go towards your treatment and rehabilitation.

These impairments may hinder someone from being able to return to their previous job. Compensation may be available to those who need vocational rehabilitation following an accident. Long-term care or in-home care Unfortunately, some accidents leave victims with impairments that require long-term or in-home care. It can be incredibly difficult for a family to cover the costs associated with providing their loved one with the necessary care.
