People Injured in Automobile Accidents Turn to Sevier County Personal Injury Lawyers to Protect Their Interests
We help individuals and families in and around Sevierville, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge when auto accidents injure their bodies and disrupt their lives
An auto accident can be a frightening experience, especially at highway speeds when the physics of colliding vehicles causes them to leave the highway, strike stationary objects, or overturn. While today’s vehicles are safer than ever, which has kept the number of fatalities down compared to prior decades, many drivers still seem to make the same accident-causing mistakes. In 2013, nearly one thousand people died in car crashes in Tennessee, and many more were seriously injured.
The Sevierville auto accident attorneys at Delius & McKenzie, PLLC understand the shock experienced by highway accident victims when another driver’s negligence brings them face to face with death. We fight tirelessly on behalf of clients and their families in and around Sevierville, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge to recover just compensation for their medical and rehabilitation costs, loss of income, and the physical and psychological pain they have experienced. We have been helping automobile crash victims for more than twenty years. Let us put that experience to work for you.

Why you should consult a lawyer even if you have insurance
Tennessee is not a no fault state. Some states, called “no fault” states, require every driver to carry insurance. Then, in the event of an accident or injury, each driver’s insurance company is required to compensate their driver for losses to the limits of his or her policy, regardless of who was responsible for the accident. These are called “no fault insurance” states. Tennessee is not one of them and it is the responsibility of the injured to bring a claim and eventual lawsuit.
Tennessee, like thirty-seven other states, is a “tort liability” state. This means that someone injured in a car accident may have to sue the at-fault driver and prove his or her responsibility for the accident in order to be compensated for their losses. For that reason, if you or a loved one is injured in an automobile accident, you should seek the guidance of an experienced Sevierville auto accident attorney as soon as possible.
