The Metro Nashville Police Department reported 26,152 crashes in Davidson County in 2024, resulting in more than 8,000 injuries and 116 deaths, according to department data. Nashville's Vision Zero Action Plan identified 2,899 severe injuries and 468 traffic-related fatalities across its high-injury network of roads. Beyond auto accidents, Nashville residents are hurt every year in workplace accidents across the county's booming construction sector, in slip and falls on commercial properties, and in medical negligence at area hospitals. Tennessee's 1-year statute of limitations is one of the shortest personal injury deadlines in the country. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.
Nashville's most dangerous corridors are documented by the city's Vision Zero program. Nolensville Pike — running from South Nashville into Antioch — has claimed more pedestrian lives than almost any other corridor in the state. Murfreesboro Pike near Bell Road ranks as the intersection with the most injuries in Davidson County. Gallatin Pike through Madison and East Nashville has been identified as one of the deadliest stretches of road in Tennessee. Dickerson Pike through North Nashville sees consistent crash and pedestrian fatality numbers year after year. Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Nashville General Hospital serve families after the most serious accidents. Those accidents cause real damage to Nashville families and we fight to get injured people the care and money they deserve.
Insurance companies operating across Davidson County may use Tennessee's comparative fault rules to try to push your fault to 50% or above and eliminate your claim entirely. And with only 1 year to file in Tennessee, they may try to run out the clock. We know how to leverage the justice system in Davidson County courts to fight back and get you what you may be owed.
IMPORTANT TENNESSEE LEGAL INFORMATION
Statute of Limitations: 1 year from the date of injury for most personal injury claims, including car accidents, slip and falls, and medical malpractice, under Tenn. Code § 28-3-104. Wrongful death: 1 year from the date of death. This is one of the shortest deadlines in the country. Do not wait.
Comparative Fault: Modified comparative fault (50% bar). If you are found 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover any damages. If you are less than 50% at fault, your recovery is reduced by your fault percentage.
At-Fault State: Tennessee is an at-fault state. The at-fault party's liability insurance is the primary source of recovery.
Insurance Minimums: $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident bodily injury liability; $25,000 property damage liability required (25/50/25).
This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.
Insurance companies in Tennessee may make early low offers while trying to run out Tennessee's 1-year clock — one of the shortest personal injury deadlines in the country. They may also use comparative fault rules to try to push your fault to 50% or above and eliminate your claim. TopDog Law and its co-counsel fight for the full recovery.
