PERSONAL INJURY

Standing Up for Injured Clients Across Middle Tennessee

When someone is injured because another person failed to act responsibly, the consequences reach far beyond the physical pain. Medical bills begin to pile up, wages are lost, transportation becomes difficult, and daily life gets disrupted in ways that most people don't anticipate. I founded Laxson Law on the belief that no injured person should have to navigate these overwhelming challenges alone. From my office in Pulaski, I work with clients throughout Middle Tennessee, helping them recover compensation and stability after a serious accident. My role is to take control of the legal process, protect your rights from the beginning, and fight for the outcome that lets you focus on healing.

A Personalized Approach to Every Injury Case

Every personal injury case has its own story, and every client has their own set of worries, goals, and obstacles. That is why I invest time into understanding the details of your accident and the challenges you’re facing at home, at work, and with your health. Whether you’ve been hospitalized, dealing with chronic pain, or simply unsure where to start, I make sure you know exactly what to expect and what steps we can take to move your case forward. My approach is rooted in communication, strategy, and a commitment to putting my clients first. When you work with me, you have someone in your corner who sees the full picture — not just the legal claims, but the impact the injury has had on your life.

Guiding You Through the Claims Process

The insurance system can be intimidating, especially when you’re recovering from an accident. Insurance adjusters may seem friendly, but their job is to limit payouts — not to protect you. That’s where I step in. I handle the calls, the paperwork, the negotiations, and all communication with the insurance company. My goal is to keep you from being taken advantage of or pressured into accepting a settlement that doesn’t reflect the true value of your injuries. When litigation becomes necessary, I am fully prepared to present your case in court and fight for the compensation you deserve. Whether your accident was caused by a negligent driver, a reckless dog owner, or an abusive caregiver, I take an aggressive approach to holding the responsible parties accountable.

Ready to Step In After Serious and Catastrophic Injuries

Many injury victims hesitate to reach out for help because they worry about the cost or the complexity of filing a claim. But the earlier you involve an attorney, the stronger your case becomes. I guide clients through securing medical documentation, preserving evidence, documenting the full extent of their losses, and identifying every available source of recovery. I also understand that injuries affect more than your physical health — they impact your career, your independence, and your family. My job is to present the full story of what you’re going through and work tirelessly to secure an outcome that helps restore your quality of life.

How I Help in Each Type of Case

Motorcycle Crashes

Motorcyclists face unique dangers on Tennessee roads, and injuries are often severe. I fight back against the unfair assumptions insurance companies make about riders and build strong cases that highlight the other driver’s negligence, ensuring you receive the support you need to recover.

Tractor Trailer Wrecks

Crashes involving 18-wheelers can be devastating. These cases often require immediate investigation and a deep understanding of federal trucking regulations. I move quickly to collect evidence, preserve black box data, and hold trucking companies accountable for unsafe practices or poorly maintained vehicles.

Dog Bites

Dog attacks can be terrifying and lead to infections, scarring, and trauma. I help clients pursue claims that hold negligent owners responsible while ensuring that all medical treatment, psychological care, and long-term effects are fully documented.

Nursing Home Abuse

Families trust nursing homes to care for their loved ones — so when abuse or neglect occurs, the betrayal is overwhelming. I take decisive action to protect vulnerable seniors, hold negligent facilities accountable, and ensure families receive answers and justice.

Day Care Abuse

Parents deserve to know their children are safe. When abuse or negligence happens at a day care facility, I act quickly to investigate, gather evidence, and pursue legal action that protects both your child’s future and other children in the community.

Assault and Battery

Intentional harm is deeply traumatic. I represent victims of assault and battery who need support, protection, and a strong advocate to seek compensation for medical expenses, emotional trauma, and long-term effects.

PERSONAL INJURY FAQs

  • 1. How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Tennessee?

    Most injury cases must be filed within one year of the accident, which is why it’s important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Starting early gives us more time to gather evidence and build a strong case.

  • 2. What if I can’t afford to hire a lawyer right now?

    I handle personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis, which means you don’t pay anything upfront. I only get paid if I recover compensation for you.

  • 3. Should I talk to the insurance company before calling an attorney?

    No. Adjusters may use your statements against you. It’s safer to let me handle the communication so your rights remain protected.

  • 4. What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

    Tennessee uses a modified comparative fault system. You may still recover damages as long as you are less than 50% responsible. I help evaluate the circumstances and determine how fault impacts your claim.

  • 5. How much is my personal injury case worth?

    Every case is unique. Factors include medical expenses, lost wages, long-term impacts, and pain and suffering. After reviewing your situation, I can give you a clearer picture of what compensation may be available.
