Frequently asked questions
Under Tennessee law, certain family members may bring a claim, including a surviving spouse, children, or parents. We can help you understand who has the right to file in your situation.
There is no need to decide anything immediately, but evidence can be lost and legal deadlines apply. An early conversation can protect your options.
Keep documents, photographs, correspondence, and any physical items connected to the incident. Do not repair or dispose of anything that may matter.
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis and you pay no attorney's fee unless we recover compensation for your family.
