Motor Vehicle Accidents

Memphis Motor Vehicle Accident Lawyer

Collierville Car Accident Attorney

A license to drive a car, or a semi truck, or a commercial jumbo jet or any kind of powerful motorized vehicle, is not a license to kill or maim others. In other words, all drivers have a responsibility to drive safely and obey the rules of the road — for their own safety, for the safety of their passengers, and for the safety of others.

At Gatti, Keltner, Bienvenu & Montesi, PLC, we fight to protect the rights of people who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents throughout the Tri-State area. We help our clients in many other ways as well. We are here for you today.

Insurance companies have one goal: to pay you as little as possible. Our goal is to get you as much compensation as we can. But the sooner you contact us after a motor vehicle accident, the better our chances will be to do that. If you have been injured in an accident — contact us for a free consultation with one of our attorneys.

The Difference That Trial Experience Makes

Although most personal injury lawsuits settle, it is difficult to obtain fair settlement terms if the insurer is not convinced your attorneys can beat them in court. With more than 150 years of combined experience and a nearly 40-year track record of successful results in Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi courts — our clients never have to worry that insurers won't take their claims seriously.

Our lawyers have successfully represented drivers, passengers, bicyclists, pedestrians and others who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents of all types, including:

Holding Negligent Drivers Responsible

At Gatti, Keltner, Bienvenu & Montesi, we are dedicated to holding negligent drivers responsible for the harm they cause and helping auto accident victims recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Unfortunately, car accidents are a common occurrence on our roads and highways. The results of a car accident can be catastrophic, including head injury, brain injury, and spinal cord injury.  Our lawyers have the experience to help car accident victims deal the complicated aftermath of a serious accident and receive the justice they deserve. We strive to get our clients the best results possible, and if a settlement cannot be reached, then we are prepared to try the case. All cases are different and results are case specific, but our attorneys work hard to obtain the best result possible for each client we serve. If you are interested in reviewing the kinds of settlements and verdicts we have obtained for our clients, please take a look sample list below:

  • An accident at a 4 way stop at a rural intersection resulted in the death of our 19 year old client. Although liability was hotly disputed and our client was not wearing a seat belt, the case was resolved for the defendant's policy limits in excess of $1,000,000.
  • Our Firm represented a 52 year male, who was in the middle of a four car chain reaction auto accident. He suffered from extreme pain to his low back, neck, right shoulder, and was bruised all over. His vehicle was totalled out. He underwent extensive physical therapy, including occupational therapy. He also had two cervical epidural blocks. We were able to get the at fault party's insurance company to pay all medicals, current and future earnings, as well as pain and suffering. We were able to resolve the case for $100,000.
