Kinds of auto accident cases we handle

In 2023, automotive accidents in Tennessee caused the deaths of 1,333 people and injured another 46,485. In every motor vehicle accident, countless factors come into play that impact the extent of a victim’s injuries, including the weather and road conditions, the types of vehicles involved, the speed of the vehicles involved and whether drivers and passengers are wearing seat belts.

Regardless of the circumstances of your car accident, if you suspect another party is at fault, our attorneys are prepared to support you. We have extensive experience handling a wide range of auto accident cases, such as:

  • Car accidents. If another driver’s negligence caused the accident that injured you, you may be able to obtain compensation. Our attorneys know how to work with insurance companies to obtain maximum compensation for injury victims.
  • Motorcycle accidents. A rider of high-speed motorcycles in Knoxville, attorney Jones understands the hazards riders face in a way that few attorneys can. Everyone at our firm provides motorcyclists with passionate and shrewd counsel.
  • Truck accidents. An accident with a semitruck, 18-wheeler or tractor-trailer can be devastating. Our attorneys investigate your accident to uncover who may be responsible: the driver, the truck manufacturer or the trucking company.
  • Uber, Lyft and other ridesharing collisions. If you took an Uber or a Lyft, and your driver was hit by another car, we can help you make a claim. We represent drivers, too, who have been seriously injured because of another person’s negligence.
  • ATV wrecks. You can get seriously injured while off-roading, especially if your group involves a novice rider. Defective parts can also increase the severity of your injuries.
  • Boating accidents. Just because the motor runs in water, doesn’t mean it’s not a motor vehicle crash. We represent boaters, swimmers, fishermen and -women, jet skiers and anyone else who enjoys time in the water.
  • Cyclists and pedestrians. Drivers tend to ignore people on bikes and on foot – but Banks and Jones doesn’t. We know your rights, and we fight to uphold them.

Common causes of crashes in the city

People get a little “funny” when they drive in the city. It’s like they don’t know how to adjust their driving from rural or suburban areas. They don’t take into account the increased number of pedestrians, cyclists and drivers, or how often they need to stop at lights or crosswalks.
