Richard’s Story: Nashville I-65 Rear-End Collision

Flora Templeton Stuart Accident Injury Lawyers recently took the case who was seriously injured in an automobile collision in Nashville, Tennessee. Our client, Richard, was traveling southbound on I-65 near Nashville and slowed to a stop due to traffic congestion. Another vehicle failed to notice that traffic had halted and struck Richard’s vehicle in the rear at high speed.

We immediately traveled to our client at his home to begin working on his case, including investigating the accident, obtaining police reports, and handling all communication with at-fault driver’s insurance company.

In addition to successfully negotiating a favorable settlement on our client’s behalf, we also referred Richard to excellent physicians & chiropractors to treat the severe pain that he was experiencing.

The Collision

Although he was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the collision, Richard sustained several injuries to his head, neck, and spine. Nashville EMS transported our client to Williamson Medical Center by ambulance for treatment.

He was experiencing severe pain in his neck and back, as well as crippling headaches, dizziness, vision issues, and ringing in his ears caused by head trauma. In the months following the collision, several specialists were brought in to treat Richard’s symptoms and give him the best chance at a full recovery.

Extensive treatment was necessary, and Richard was concerned about the financial costs associated with regular visits to a neurologist, ophthalmologist, and chiropractor.

The Result

When a Nashville car accident occurs, the first thing we do is reserve all available benefits and determine the policy limits of the at-fault driver to establish their financial responsibility for our client’s damages. The last thing we want is for our injured clients to have to pay out-of-pocket for someone else’s negligence.

We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that you pay nothing for our legal services unless we are successful in your case.

In this case, we were able to secure a substantial settlement of policy limits for pain & suffering that included payment for all of Richard’s medical bills in the amount of $28,963.72 and property damage. Maximum recovery is always our goal.
