How to choose a lawyer in Memphis

When choosing a personal injury lawyer in Memphis, start with focus. Look for an attorney whose practice centers on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, not just settlements, and whether the lawyer knows the local courts and insurers that may be involved in your case. Get clear contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and costs. Ask who personally handles your case and who you will speak with day to day. Finally, check the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory.

What to do after an accident in Memphis

After an accident in Memphis, your first priority is medical care, even if you feel fine. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, exchange and gather information from others involved, and avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, expenses, and any correspondence. Then act promptly: Florida has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury for claims on or after March 24, 2023, while older claims had 4 years. Missing that deadline can bar your claim, so contact a local attorney early.

Florida injury law, in brief
