I had a car accident in 2019 and it took 3 years for the responsible party’s insurance and lawyer to figure out what they were going to do but NST kept me in the loop and stayed on the other lawyer’s case to make sure things were moving along. I never had to call and check on the status of my case. When it was all done, they called. I went in and signed the paperwork and got my check the same week. They were professional and friendly and knowledgeable. I was comfortable and stress free through the whole process. I’m very grateful for NST!!!
I highly recommend NST law! My son & I were hit by a drunk driver unfortunately. This was my first time ever being in a major auto accident & NST helped tremendously & tirelessly! Every single person that dealt with our case was extremely helpful, respectful, & courteous. They made the process as fast & easy as possible for us. I wish I could give this firm a million stars 😊 Thank you guys so much!
I was unsure who to choose after my car wreck, but now I am happy I chose NST. Paralegals and lawyers are diligent and responsive always kept me updated and seemed to care about me. Thanks NST 😊”
We have won billions in verdicts, judgments, and settlements for people injured in Nashville and across Tennessee, including:
A married couple hired our car crash lawyers after a severe collision with an 18-wheeler truck left them with extensive injuries. We quickly deployed our rapid response team, who diligently preserved key evidence and uncovered negligence on the part of the trucking company. After initial resistance from the trucking company, we secured our clients a settlement of three million dollars within a year.
Our firm secured a $230,000 jury verdict for a client who suffered connective tissue injuries to her back and neck in a car accident. The insurance company initially denied the injuries, accusing the client of exaggerating her claims. NST hired expert witnesses to demonstrate the severity of the injuries and lost income. When the insurance company’s settlement offer proved unreasonable, NST took the case to trial, resulting in a jury verdict more than nine times higher than the insurer’s offer.
Our firm represented a Tennessee couple in a head-on collision caused by a driver on the wrong side of the road. The wife sustained significant injuries while the husband tragically passed away. Our car accident lawyers filed suit and uncovered two previously undisclosed insurance policies, including an excess umbrella policy. The case settled for the total policy limits.
When your case goes to court, it matters who knows the room. NST Law has been litigating car accident cases in Davidson County for over 35 years including in front of judges at the Twentieth Judicial District Court. We know Nashville’s most dangerous corridors firsthand: I-24 through Antioch, I-440 near Bellevue, and Briley Parkway around Opryland are among the city’s most consistent sources of serious collisions. That local knowledge, combined with our established investigative network across the metro area, gives our clients a meaningful edge from day one.
The full value of your claim depends on injury severity, liability, and long-term impact on your life. NST Law works with medical and financial experts to make sure nothing is left on the table.
While the exact amount your case is worth depends on the specific factors of your case, our Nashville car accident lawyers have secured settlements as high as $6.3 million.
In Tennessee, you may be eligible for economic, non-economic, and punitive damages. At NST Law, we can determine the estimated value of your case by totaling all of the types of damages you’re eligible for.
Economic damages in Nashville car accident cases are monetary losses that can be objectively verified, including lost wages, property damage, and medical bills. Here’s an example of how we were able to seek economic damages for one of our car accident clients:
In this case, we represented an elderly couple who had been married for over sixty years and were involved in a catastrophic car wreck. Tragically, the husband passed away from his debilitating injuries, including brain trauma. The wife also sustained severe injuries, requiring her to undergo multiple invasive procedures to repair a collapsed lung and remove her spleen.
We developed the case by hiring experts to distinguish the husband’s injuries from a preexisting condition and to explain the extent and severity of the wife’s injuries. Our car accident attorneys resolved the case for $1.5 million, the full amount of the defendant’s policy limit. We also successfully reduced the medical bills owed, resulting in significantly more money to our client.
Non-economic damages are compensation for less tangible, harder-to-quantify losses you have because of the accident. This includes pain and suffering, disfigurement, mental anguish, emotional stress, humiliation, and loss of enjoyment of normal activities, benefits, and pleasures of life.
Punitive damages are awarded as a means to punish the at-fault driver in cases where the injury was intentionally, maliciously, or recklessly inflicted. This standard could apply when the driver is under the influence of intoxicating substances, such as in the following case our car accident attorneys handled:
Our client, a 20-year-old woman, was a passenger in a vehicle driven by an individual who was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. She sustained severe injuries, including fractures of the C6/C7, multiple rib fractures, a right shoulder fracture, and contusions of both lungs. The defendants argued that our client was the negligent party due to her being in an automobile with someone who had been drinking. We resolved this case for $500,000.
Tennessee law allows you to receive compensation if your share of the fault is lower than 50%. If you do share fault, your compensation will be reduced proportionately to your degree of responsibility. For example, if your damages total $1,000,000 and you’re 30% at fault, you’ll receive $700,000, or $1,000,000 less 30%.
Strong evidence is the foundation of every successful claim. After a crash in Nashville, key evidence includes:
We ensure all evidence is preserved to strengthen your claim and counter any disputes.
Timelines vary, but here’s a general framework:
The one-year Tennessee statute of limitations means you need to act quickly regardless. NST Law begins building your case immediately after consultation to keep things moving without sacrificing thoroughness.
From The Founder:
Alex Saharovich
Senior Partner, Managing Partner, co-chair of the traumatic injury section at NST Law, and fifteen-time Super Lawyer.
NST law, which is one of the largest personal injury firms in the country, can help you by obtaining experts to attempt to prove that you were less than 50% at fault for the accident.
According to the Tennessee personal injury statute of limitations, you have one year from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit after your car accident in Nashville. While the law outlines some exceptions to this deadline, hiring a lawyer as soon as possible after your crash can ensure you are covered if no exceptions apply.
At NST Law, we start working on your case immediately to ensure we protect your right to seek the compensation you deserve. Additionally, we have investigative partnerships and resources in Nashville that allow us to find factors in your case that may qualify you for an extension of the deadline.
Here’s what to expect when you hire NST Law:
Trial or settlement: Most cases settle before trial; when they don’t, NST Law is fully prepared to take your case to a jury.

Nashville’s growth has come with a significant rise in traffic incidents. According to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, Davidson County consistently ranks among the state’s highest counties for traffic crashes. Interstates I-24, I-65, and I-440, along with surface streets like Murfreesboro Pike and Gallatin Pike, are among the most accident-prone corridors in the metro area. Distracted driving, speeding, and impaired driving remain the leading causes of serious collisions in the city.
There is no upfront cost to hire a lawyer at NST Law. You only pay if we win your case.
NST Law prioritizes keeping you informed throughout your case. You can expect:
Do not speak with the opposing driver’s insurance company. They may try to persuade you to make statements or sign paperwork that would harm your case or diminish your compensation.
Always direct the insurance company to your attorney. Do not engage in conversation with them or admit to any degree of fault in the accident. Never sign paperwork without your attorney present.
While not required by Tennessee law, uninsured motorist coverage is inexpensive and will cover you in the event you’re hit by an uninsured driver. You can also recover damages directly from the liable parties if they have assets from which you can collect.
An uninsured Nashville driver who causes an accident resulting in bodily injury or death is guilty of a class A misdemeanor and subject to fines and towing of the vehicle.
Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. Common tactics include disputing the severity of your injuries, arguing a pre-existing condition caused your symptoms, pressuring you into a quick lowball settlement before you understand your damages, or using your own statements against you. Never speak to the opposing insurer without an attorney. NST Law handles all communications on your behalf so adjusters can’t use these tactics against you.

We’ve been practicing personal injury law across Tennessee for over three decades, so we know the legal landscape and what it will take to ensure your rights are protected after a crash.
