Spring Hill Car Accidents

Injured in a Motor Vehicle Crash in or Around Spring Hill, Tennessee?

It’s no secret that the population of Spring Hill has grown exponentially since 2000; according to the U.S. Census, Spring Hill’s population grew from approximately 7,700 people in 2000 to more than 37,000 in 2016. With such a growth in population comes more business; with more business, more commerce; with more commerce, more traffic; and with more traffic, unfortunately, comes more car accidents. It would be nice if there were a set of hard and fast guidelines for how to avoid being involved in a car wreck, but unfortunately, most auto accident victims never see them coming, and before they know it, their lives have changed in the blink of an eye. Indeed, the aftermath of an auto collision in Spring Hill can be a headache, but a Spring Hill car accident lawyer can help explain your legal rights and guide you through the process of getting compensated for your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, vehicle damage, and pain and suffering.

According to statistics compiled by the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, Maury County – where part of Spring Hill is situated – has consistently ranked among the top 20 most dangerous counties for motor vehicle crashes in the state since 2012. Between 2012-2016, the number of car wrecks increased by almost 22%. Although auto collisions can happen anywhere and at any time, in recent years, certain areas of Spring Hill have been more accident-prone than others.

What a Car Accident Lawyer in Spring Hill Can Do For You

After being involved in a crash with another car, health should be your top priority. As you recover, you will likely wonder how to go about being reimbursed for all you have lost. After all, when you’ve spent hours, weeks, or maybe even months having to get medical treatment for your injuries, have incurred thousands of dollars in medical bills, have lost significant income due to missed time from work, and have endured pain and suffering that has caused a negative impact on your enjoyment of life, why wouldn’t you try to get fair compensation to cover your losses? In fact, Tennessee law specifically allows it.

Many people who try to handle negotiations or discussions with an insurance company on their own are not experts, so they could be unaware of certain legalities that can make or break a case. All personal injury cases in Tennessee are subject to strict statutory provisions, including the statute of limitation, which generally means a lawsuit must be filed in court within one year from the date of the accident if a settlement is not finalized. Car accident attorneys who serve Spring Hill know how to investigate liability, take steps to preserve evidence, and, most crucial, coordinate benefits in ways to ensure maximum compensation for clients, which could mean the difference between a modest amount in compensation and significantly more in compensation.
