The Wharton Law Firm represents individuals and families injured in car accidents throughout Memphis and Shelby County, helping clients pursue accountability and compensation after negligence causes serious harm.

Injured in a Car Accident in Memphis?

A car accident can create problems that extend far beyond damage to a vehicle. Medical treatment, time away from work, insurance claims, ongoing pain, and uncertainty about the future can quickly become overwhelming.

 

The Wharton Law Firm represents people injured in motor vehicle accidents throughout Memphis and Shelby County. We investigate how a collision occurred, identify potentially responsible parties, preserve available evidence, evaluate insurance coverage, and work to understand the full effect an injury has had on our client's life. Insurance companies may begin investigating an accident soon after it occurs. Injured individuals deserve someone evaluating the case with their interests in mind. Our attorneys approach each matter individually and prepare claims based on the evidence, the nature of the injuries, and the losses experienced by the client.

Rear-End Accidents

No two accidents happen exactly the same way. The Wharton Law Firm handles serious motor vehicle claims involving a wide range of circumstances.​

Distracted Driving Accidents

Drivers who take their attention away from the road can place everyone around them at risk. Distracted-driving cases may involve texting, cellphone use, navigation systems, passengers, or other conduct that interferes with a driver's ability to operate a vehicle safely.

Drunk and Impaired Driving Accidents

Collisions caused by impaired drivers can result in catastrophic injuries and loss of life. We represent individuals and families seeking accountability when another driver's reckless conduct causes serious harm.

Intersection Accidents

Failure to yield, running a red light, disregarding a stop sign, and making unsafe turns can cause significant collisions at Memphis intersections. Determining how an intersection accident occurred may require reviewing photographs, video, witness statements, vehicle damage, and other available evidence.

Hit-and-Run Accidents

A driver leaving the scene does not necessarily mean an injured person is without legal options. The circumstances of the collision, available insurance coverage, and other potential sources of recovery should be carefully evaluated.

What Compensation May Be Available After a Memphis Car Accident?

The financial consequences of a serious collision can continue long after the accident itself. Depending on the circumstances of a particular case, an injured person may be entitled to pursue compensation for losses associated with the collision.

Potential damages may include:

 

Medical Expenses

Emergency treatment, hospitalization, surgery, rehabilitation, physical therapy, medication, and other medical expenses related to the injuries.

 

Future Medical Care

Serious injuries may require continued treatment, rehabilitation, additional procedures, or long-term medical care.

 

Lost Income

An injury may prevent someone from returning to work temporarily or permanently.

 

Loss of Earning Capacity

When an injury affects a person's ability to earn income in the future, the long-term financial impact may become part of the claim.

 

Pain and Suffering

Serious injuries can affect a person's physical comfort, independence, activities, relationships, and overall quality of life.

 

Property Damage

A claim may also involve damage to or loss of a vehicle and other personal property.

The value of every case depends upon its individual facts. The Wharton Law Firm evaluates the evidence, available insurance coverage, nature of the injuries, and present and future losses when determining how a claim should be pursued.
