You don’t want to have to figure out who will be covering your medical bills and any other damages you have. Instead, speak with our personal injury lawyer to see what we can do to help you. Call our office today.

Do I have to go to court?

When you work with a personal injury lawyer in Kingsport, Tennessee, you may be wondering if you will need to go to court. The truth is that many people never end up seeing the inside of a courtroom because many insurance companies would prefer to settle. Why is this? Lawsuits can make both parties uneasy because you never know how they will go. Either side may have good witnesses to the accident that occurred but if the witness is not good on the stand or never shows up then that can ruin a solid case.

Are there other reasons people prefer to avoid going to court?

Insurance companies may not wish to go to court for other reasons too. For example, going to court can be expensive and the insurance company wants to keep their expenses down to as little as possible. Things like the expense of expert witnesses, court costs, and traveling can all cost a great deal for either side.

Litigation Is Difficult

We don’t just mean the legal process of litigation, either. Litigation can be an extremely stressful situation, especially if you are forced to relive a trauma that is still causing you pain. If you consider what needs to happen to win your case, you will likely need to be very vulnerable and speak openly and in detail about the accident that occurred. Depending on the type of accident this was, this may be an emotionally painful process for you.

Get the Right Help

Our personal injury lawyer in Kingsport, Tennessee understands that when you are working with another party’s insurance company you are likely dealing with an agent who is being more difficult than they seem upfront. Even if the agent says they are trying to help you and that the insurance company would like to work with you to get you compensation for an injury, know that the only interest they have is in saving their company as much money as possible. For many years, we have represented victims who have been injured in personal injury accidents and we know how to deal with insurance companies. If you would like help with your personal injury claim and if you want someone to represent you when speaking with insurance, give us a call.

Contributory Negligence Laws

When it comes to determining who is at fault in Tennessee, the laws can be strict concerning contributory negligence. So, if it is found out that you were even partially responsible for the accident (the insurance company could argue that if you were eating or changing the radio station you were partially responsible) then you may not receive the full compensation for your injuries. If the insurance company calls you directly and speaks with you, know that they will be working hard to try to prove that even 1% of the accident was caused because of something you did. They will be asking what you were doing when the accident occurred, what you remember, and they will likely try to persuade you into dropping the claim. For whatever percentage you are found responsible, that is how much your claim will be reduced.

How else can insurance agents harm your case?

While you are the one filing the personal injury claim, you may suddenly feel that your every move and every action is being scrutinized. Speak with your personal injury lawyer in TN if you believe your settlement offer is much lower than it should be. It can be difficult when an insurance company is trying to drag your reputation or your credibility through the dirt and it is important to talk with your lawyer and understand that they are doing this so they will give you as little compensation as possible.

Don’t settle with an insurance company before you have spoken with an attorney. If you want to guarantee you’ll get a low and unfair offer, this is one of the ways to do it. However, if you want to ensure a lawyer is there to protect your rights every step of the way, call our team now. We want to make sure you get compensation after a personal injury accident.

We understand that what you are going through now is difficult and we want to help take as much of the burden off of you as possible. If you want to learn more about filing a personal injury claim or going to court, contact our Kingsport personal injury lawyer today.

I contacted the law offices of Mark T. Hurt regarding a traffic ticket I received. Initially I was concerned because I live between Florida and New York, and with Virginia being midway, handling my ticket would be a major inconvenience, and I wanted to keep my record free of any infractions.Choosing Mark T. Hurt to represent me was the best choice I made, and it was further improved with the assistance of Rhonda, who contacted me once they received my request. Rhonda is one of those unique people who has mastered the fine line between being perfectly professional and friendly. Every conversation we had, was made to feel as if I were speaking to a close friend. One of the most appreciated aspects of working with her was her understanding and respectful of my schedule and time.For my work, I have a hectic schedule and very few free moments, so being able to handle things quickly and effectively is a priority for me, and Rhonda understood that and took care of everything as if she knew exactly what I was expecting. I even got sick while working with Rhonda, and her first comment was to wish me well. She also went out of her way to find solutions regarding my traffic citation that worked around my schedule. The price was fair, and when considering the quality of work and more importantly, the quality of people you will be reliant upon to ensure the best possible outcome for whatever your situation is, they can ask for 10x more than what I paid and it would still be worth it.All in all, recommendation for this law office, and for Rhonda herself, could not be higher. If you are searching for someone to represent you in any legal matter whatsoever, this is the office to work with. Thank you again Rhonda.

I'm not a Virgina resident and had found this firm through Google. I have a traffic violation case in tennessee and was desperate to get awnsers. This law office's staff was so helpful even though I wasn't able to even be a client, I believe the person who awnsered was Ashley. After their direction on finding another attorney and my case I was able to push my court date back and will be able to find someone to represent me.I'm not even a client, they didn't have to help me at all! I just wish they practiced in the tri cities area! Would recommend this group!

Late in July I was charged with a reckless driving ticket in Greenville County, Virginia. I got caught going 83mph in a 55mph zone. It was my first offense on my driving record and I did not need a misdemeanor which could hurt my career. I was assured by Mrs Rhonda Hurt not to worry and that her team would take care of it. On my end, the only effort I put in was taking a 12 hour defensive driving course and sending her my driving record. Two months later, the result of my hearing was a reduction to a defective equipment/non driving violation with 0 points off my record. The other good part about this case was I did not have to go to court. In court fees I paid $68 and a fine of $78 for my ticket. Mrs. Rhonda and her team put together a miracle in that county and I cannot give her enough credit. I sincerely recommend this firm because I know they worked hard on my case and will do the same for you. Thank you again!

I got a traffic ticket while I traveled passing through VA in May.It is a big deal if you have the Law Section: 44-1/46/2-862 and speeding excess of 80 MPH in your ticket. It is a Criminal Misdemeanor Reckless Driving Charge!I saw Mark T. Hurt's Law office simple letter, I decided to give a call and get a free consultation.From the call, Rhonda provided a detail explaining the criminal charge of the Misdemeanor Reckless Driving ticket is about. She is a very caring and honest person, no sale pressure to me to take their law office at all.Once I decided to use their firm to represent me in court, it didn't take an hour, I was told totake some actions and wait for cout day to see the result. That is that simple and no worry at all. On the court date, I received text messages from lawyer's office. Guess what? The lawyer did a miraculous and fantastic job for me in the court.The Reckless Driving Misdemeanor ticket has been reduced to an Improper Driving traffic ticket.Thanks to Mark T. Hurt's Law office team! They are not only very professional and transparent but also does the best quality job you can find. I strongly recommend them to be your lawyer if you need one in VA.

Having landed a Reckless Driving (99 in a 65) on my way back to FL from WV, I came across this law firm when searching something along "best reckless driving lawyers Virginia."Mr. Hurt's firm dropped my "Criminal Misdemeanor" to an improper driving. Which from my understanding is right next to a normal speeding ticket.All expenses accounted (payment, court cost, fine), I'm out roughly $1,100 ; but I'd much rather pay that once today, than every six months to an insurance company for the next... God knows how many years. I am extremely grateful and overjoyed with my outcome.As far as speaking with the great ladies at these offices, everyone was always kind, quick, and considerate. They answered all my questions, explained all my options and possible outcomes. I had a clean record, and had now experience dealing with courts or lawyers, so their patience and knowledge was especially helpful. If I ever screw up again (I pray to God I don't) I hope it's in Virginia, so I can call upon Mr. Hurt's offices.
