Chattanooga Auto Accident Lawyer Assists Victims

Tennessee car accident attorney handles lawsuits and insurance claims

Hamilton County has one of the highest auto accident rates in Tennessee. Over the past five years, the county averaged more than 12,000 accidents and 35 car crash deaths annually. The Law Offices of Robert W. Sauser is a Chattanooga auto accident attorney practice who represents collision victims and their families so that they can obtain reimbursement for injuries and other harm triggered by an auto accident. In this area and throughout the state, my firm takes on drivers who are at fault in personal injury and wrongful death actions. Using the experience gained over 40 years of legal practice, I am focused on maximizing the restitution for my clients in litigation and settlement discussions.

Strong advocate offers thorough advice to people hurt in vehicle collisions

Whether you’ve been hurt on I-24 or right outside your home, my firm can give you the information you need to protect yourself by explaining what you need to know about:

• Immediate steps you can take — Once you’ve been in an auto accident, your first priority must be your physical safety and the well-being of everyone else around you. If no one requires immediate medical attention, you can begin to gather witness contact information and photos of the scene.
• Insurance claims — Tennessee has a fault-based insurance system, which gives victims the ability to file a claim with their own insurance company or the carrier for the driver who caused the collision. Initiating a lawsuit is also an option. My firm will outline each option and take assertive action on your behalf in negotiations, or in court, if warranted.
• Uninsured drivers — Most insurance policies in the state include coverage in case you suffer damages in an accident with an uninsured motorist. If the driver at fault lacks insurance, I can help you seek appropriate relief.

In personal injury actions, my firm works to secure financial recovery for damages such as medical costs, prescription drugs, rehabilitation expenses and the loss of current and future income. I also advise surviving family members on wrongful death claims.

Dedicated injury firm works to hold negligent drivers accountable

Though safety advancements have been implemented by automobile manufacturers, new risks confront people traveling on Tennessee roads. At the outset of your case, I’ll conduct a thorough investigation to determine if cell phone use or some other distraction triggered your auto accident. My firm also evaluates potential collision causes, such as excessive speed or impairment resulting from the use of drugs or alcohol. Even if the police report doesn’t detail careless or reckless conduct, I understand how to find evidence to bolster your case.

Many times your car may have been damaged from an accident with a truck which can open a an array of issues to explore such as truck maintenance, inadequate training or improper loading. When you have been involved in a crash, a Chattanooga vehicle accident attorney can help guide you through the process of dealing with insurance, medical and employment related issues.
