Civility does not mean weakness. Civility, kindness and love are found on the path to justice for Tennessee personal injury lawyers. Many lawyers in Tennessee are uncivil to witnesses, other lawyers, and the parties. Incivility of attorneys usually arises out of insecurity, fear, and incompetence and has no place in the profession.

Who do we admire: Jesus Christ, Ghandi, Mother Teresa, or Hitler, Mussolini or the Devil?

Civility to all parties to a lawsuit is the only way to insure that justice will occur from the facts. I have been tested by extreme incivility in cases, however, that is not the norm in Tennessee. When lawyers are arrogant or hateful to our clients, a witness or equals, they lose.

Juries are very smart and usually, it has been my experience, will not reward this behavior.

Why does someone injured in a tractor-trailer crash or a car accident in Tennessee need competent legal representation?

There are many reason why someone needs a competent professional when this type of tragedy strikes a family as follows:

1. Insurance company are in the business of making money and not adequately compensating victims who have been involved in a truck crash or automobile crash at their insured’s fault;

2. Injury victims do not know the law as it relates to torts, civil procedure, or evidence and are at a disadvantage to the insurance company who is in the business of trying to avoid paying the accident victim;

3. The insurance company will have people investigating this crash from the date they receive notice of it and the accident victim should also have someone investigating this crash;

4. A personal injury lawyer will be able to advise you on what needs to be done to prosecute your claim from Day One and how to preserve evidence which is very important to your case;

5. A Tennessee personal injury lawyer will be aware of the laws relating to the operation of a tractor-trailer and/or automobile on the highways in the State of Tennessee and will also be able to insure that you receive prompt, fair, and complete compensation for your injuries;

6. Statistics show that injured victims who are not represented by an attorney do not receive full and fair compensation for their injuries just as a patient would be ill advised to operate on themselves and a person injured in an automobile crash or tractor-trailer wreck would be ill advised to attempt to represent themselves.

END

Caring, Compassion, and Love for our clients make for the best Tennessee personal injury attorney. Personal injury attorneys who represent truck accident victims and car accident injury victims need to be well versed in the law, including evidence and the Rules of Civil Procedure. However, this attorney feel that what separates the mediocre attorneys from the great Tennessee trial lawyers is love for oneself, love for humanity, and most of all, love for our clients.

Fancy lawyer tricks, legal maneuvering, and slickness do not impress this Tennessee personal injury lawyer. I do not believe in meanness, hate, or wickedness as ways to win a personal injury case either. I believe that love, goodness, and righteousness make a great trial lawyer to represent truck accident or car accident injury clients.

Caring is contagious and if the lawyer cares for his clients, it will show. Love does not mean weakness and the lawyer must be firm. When we love, believe in our client’s cause, and care for them as one of God’s children, no amount of meanness, hate, or insurance company tricks can stop us from obtaining justice. This, in my opinion, makes for a great personal injury lawyer in the State of Tennessee and throughout the nation.
