Practice Areas
No matter what your case may be, our firm has the experience and knowledge to give you professional representation while providing you with the personal attention that you deserve.
Auto Accidents
We know and understand auto accidents. If you’ve been involved in a car accident, our firm has the experience necessary to successfully represent you in a court of law. We’ll work with you to maximize your compensation if it was another party’s fault, while protecting your rights and minimizing your liability if you were at fault. Insurance laws involving automobile accidents can be complex, and it definitely helps to hire an attorney who knows the laws and can provide you with knowledgeable legal advice. It is important to obtain legal representation as soon as possible, because even delaying it a few days can prove costly when you need to have your claim and the accident investigated and establish claims with your insurance company.
Workers' Comp
It is always a serious matter when an employee is hurt or injured on the job. With that injury, an employee and his/her family can face a wide variety of issues that aren’t always in the best interest of the employer. We pride ourselves on being able to represent injured workers and work with them to educate them and make sure they understand their rights. The attorneys at Rocky McElhaney Law Firm work for you to get you the medical treatment you deserve, as well as any disability income that you may be entitled to. Because this is a very complex area of law that is constantly changing, it is important to hire an attorney to represent you who has your best interests in mind and is knowledgeable in workers’ compensation laws.
Wrongful Death
In the unfortunate event of losing a loved one to wrongful death, it is extremely important to select an attorney to represent you who has experience with wrongful death cases. Losing a loved one is never an easy thing to deal with, especially in such an unexpected manner. We have the experience and professionalism to help you through this emotionally trying and difficult period of time, representing you during your case and helping you to receive any damages that you may be entitled to.
Tractor Trailer Wrecks
As the trucking industry continues to grow, the number of tractor trailer accidents on our highways also increases. This is especially true in Tennessee, where truck drivers can suffer from fatigue and sleep deprivation because of increased workloads. In these wrecks, it is often the people in passenger vehicles who suffer the most. The experienced lawyers at the Rocky McElhaney Law Firm will work with you to protect your rights while proving the fault of those involved in the accident.
Nursing Home Neglect
Nursing home abuse and negligence is an extremely unfortunate occurrence for elderly friends and family members. We know the rights that the elderly are entitled to, and understand that hiring a lawyer can sometimes be the only way to get an honest answer about the treatment of a loved one at a nursing home. If you have a question or concern about the treatment of a loved one by an elderly care home, please contact us.
Personal Injury
You may be entitled to compensation for the injuries you receive as the result of someone else’s negligence. Regardless of whether it’s physical injury, emotional injury, or property damages, we will work with you on your case to make sure that liability and damages are documented and established. There is a time limit to being able to file for damages in your case, and we have the experience to be able to successfully represent you in a court of law.
Motorcycle Wrecks
There can be special circumstances involving a motorcycle accident. These include reckless drivers, product defects, or simply unsafe roads and hazards on highways that may not cause problems for automobiles, but can be dangerous for motorcycles. We understand the unique specifics of a motorcycle and will work with you to get the best possible results for your situation.
Construction Accidents
Construction has one of the highest on-the-job injury rates in the country. Even with strict safety guidelines in place, most sites are still extremely dangerous. Often, the injuries that occur at these job sites are severe and come from a variety of causes. You could be eligible to file a claim for compensation if an accident isn’t your fault, and the attorneys at Rocky McElhaney Law Firm will work for you to make sure that you get the most money that you are entitled to. We’ll work on your case and determine exactly who is responsible for your injuries, and represent you to make sure that you receive the compensation you deserve.
On-The-Job Injuries
If you were hurt or injured on the job, Rocky McElhaney Law Firm can help. We are competent and aggressive attorneys who will fight for your rights. Our firm has the knowledge and expertise to establish that your injury is work-related and occurred over the course of employment. We will work with medical experts who will not only establish the full extent of your injury, but will help us to get you the benefits you are entitled to by law.
Disability
As disability lawyers, we can and will fight for your rights if you have been discriminated against because of your disability. We work with our clients to make sure that their Social Security Disability claims are successful, as applications are often turned down due to the system looking for reasons not to award disability claims.
