Seeking to Get Started?

$1.25 Million Settlement in Automobile Accident Case

Edward M. Graves III Accident & Injury Law had the pleasure of representing a long-time Upper Cumberland resident who was seriously injured in an automobile accident when a large truck caused a severe collision and multiple fractures. Our client had to be emergently transported via helicopter ambulance to a trauma center. We successfully fought to secure a sizeable settlement that fairly compensated our client for all damages.

$287K+ Trial Judgment Following $0 Offer from Defendant

We represented a gentleman who was injured in an automobile accident and suffered injuries. The defense refused to make any settlement offer whatsoever, and defended the case, claiming that the accident did not cause an injury, and further claiming that our client was responsible for causing the accident in the first place. Following depositions and development of our medical evidence, the defense refused to offer any settlement apparently taking the position that we could not win at trial. We were able to get the case to trial and secured a very favorable judgment for our client.

$650K Settlement for Injuries Caused by Distracted Teenage Driver

A client was going about her normal day when she became involved in a serious accident caused by a distracted teenage driver. Following significant pre-trial discovery and litigation, we secured a sizable settlement to compensate our client for her damages. Unfortunately, we see way too many cases of people suffering injuries (with some losing their lives) due to distracted driving, usually caused by cell phones or something else in the car that draws the driver’s attention away from the roadway.

$1.25 Million Settlement for Motorcycle Accident

In one of our more memorable cases, the prospects for successfully recovering anything in this case were extraordinarily low due to no witnesses and the written statement provided to the police by the driver of the vehicle. We believe in our client and the case, and we went through extensive efforts to obtain evidence, which was thought not to exist, proving that the other driver’s written statement was false. We successfully recovered a considerable settlement for our client.

$1.025 Million+ in Combined Truck Accident and Worker's Compensation Settlement

We represented a young husband and father involved in a serious head-on collision. Since he was travelling while working, he had claims against the other driver as well as separate claims for workers’ compensation benefits. We successfully resolved all claims, securing sizable settlements for our client.

$300K Settlement in Motorcycle Crash Case

Our client was injured when another driver ran a red light, causing multiple injuries. The defense brought in lawyers from other states to defend the case. We litigated the case to success when we ultimately received a favorable result for our client.

$500K Settlement in Rear-End Collision Automobile Accident

In a hard-fought and complex case that extended deep into litigation, and which required the use of multiple expert witnesses (and the taking of expert depositions in North Carolina, Georgia, Indiana, and Tennessee), and which involved multiple insurance companies, we successfully secured a favorable settlement for our client.

$1.25 Million Settlement for Family of Motorcycle Passenger's Wrongful Death

Motorcycle-fatality cases occur way too often in Tennessee. Mr. Graves strives to help the families of those who lose their lives in accidents, and he hopes that these cases also bring awareness to Tennessee motorists to keep a lookout for motorcycles.

$347K Combined Settlement from Multiple Parties in I-40 Automobile Accident Case

Edward M. Graves III Accident & Injury Law successfully secured multiple settlements for our clients when a chaotic accident occurred, involving numerous vehicles on Interstate 40. We successfully sorted through the facts and details of the case to identify the at-fault parties and their insurance companies, and through the Court processes and litigation we pursued successful outcomes for our clients.

Wrongful Death Settlement for Family of Husband and Wife Killed in Tennessee Motorcycle Accident

In yet another tragic motorcycle accident, a husband and wife lost their lives due to a negligent driver. We represented the surviving family to secure the maximum insurance settlement.

$265K Settlement In Dog Attack Case

We had the pleasure of representing a gentleman who was attacked by a dog and sustained a serious injury. With there being no witnesses to the attack, the defense was that the attack simply did not occur. Through depositions, we were able to expose very important inconsistencies in the defendant’s statements, which ultimately led to the ability to secure a favorable settlement for our client.

$207K Settlement for Injuries Caused by Inexperienced Driver

Parents who provide a vehicle for the use and benefit of their child can also be held liable for the injuries caused by that child. We successfully pursued such a claim on behalf of our client, who was injured in a serious car accident.

$1.30 Million Settlement for Pedestrian Struck by Vehicle

Edward M. Graves III Accident & Injury Law successfully represented a client struck by a vehicle while walking near a public road. He sustained multiple injuries and endured months of rehabilitation. We successfully secured a favorable settlement, compensating him for his medical bills, pain and suffering, and other damages.

$600K Settlement for Chain Reaction, or Multiple Automobile Collision

Our client’s life was turned upside down in the blink of an eye, but it was unclear which driver was to blame. The evidence was not clear initially, but following discovery and depositions in litigations, we got the case to mediation and secured a favorable outcome for our client.

Case Results Depend on the Facts of the Particular Case, Some Large, Some Small

Many case results above involve claims and trials that achieved six or seven-figure settlements or verdicts.  We also represent numerous clients every year who have smaller claims, as we strive to help anyone injured in an accident regardless of how big or small their case is.  Insurance companies often fight smaller cases the hardest because most claims fall within this range. We passionately represent those injured in accidents and injuries no matter the case size.
