Auto Accidents
From fender benders to multi-car pile-ups, TriStar Law can help you recover that you deserve for the injuries and losses that you didn't ask for.
Motorcycle Accidents
Whether you ride a Harley Road King or a Honda Gold Wing, there's no such thing as a fender bender when you're on two wheels.
Truck Accidents
When a 40,000- to 60,000-pound semi is barreling down the interstate, the Department of Transportation sets strict rules they must follow.
There's an auto accident in Tennessee every 40 minutes.
With 206,222 auto accidents in 2016 alone, the chances are great that at some point you may be involved in an auto accident. If you have been in an accident, then you know that the term "fender bender" doesn't really make sense. Even a "minor" accident causes enough force that it bends metal and crushes glass. If you're involved in an accident, let TriStar fight for your rights.
Our founder, Daniel Lewis, has sustained a catastrophic injury himself, so he understands what you're going through. You don't want anything you don't deserve, but it's only fair that you be compensated for your damages. You just want to get on with your life, and you need the TriStar Law team to help you do that. We're compassionate with our clients and aggressive with our opponents. Let TriStar help you collect the damages you deserve and move past your accident.
