How We Fight for Victims of Drunk Drivers in Tennessee

  • The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto have recovered over $50 million for our clients. We pursue all available sources of compensation for drunk driving accident victims, including both the impaired driver and establishments that over-served them.
  • Our firm knows what it takes to prove liability after a drunk driving collision. We will work quickly to gather and preserve critical evidence like blood alcohol tests, surveillance footage, and witness statements that strengthen your claim.
  • You deserve legal representation without financial risk. Our firm handles DUI accident cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay any legal fees unless we win compensation for your injuries.

Criminal versus Civil Cases in Knoxville DUI Accidents

In Tennessee, operating a vehicle while intoxicated is illegal. Although drunk drivers face criminal charges from the state, these proceedings focus on punishing the offender rather than compensating victims. This often leaves those harmed by these incidents suffering from a range of painful losses and injuries.

A civil lawsuit allows you to pursue financial recovery for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. You can pursue a lawsuit even while the driver faces criminal changes; the two cases proceed independently. 

"The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto stuck in there and fought for us."

We tried to go through the insurance company ourselves, but they basically just laughed at us. So I got in touch with The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto. The insurance company's attitude really changed, and within a week we had our car replaced and rehabilitation going for my wife. The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto stuck in there and fought for us.

"They got the most that I could have gotten for any injury that I had."

Had it not been for The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto, I would be in a mess. I would not have been able to handle the paper work or things that would have been required to stand in a court of law myself. They got the most that I could have gotten for any injury that I had. I was more than pleased with the settlement. They handled my case promptly and very professionally.

D. Blakeman

"They are extremely good attorneys. They changed my life."

I would recommend The Lawyers of Brown & Roberto because they are for the client. They are extremely tough when they go to court, they keep you well informed, and they treat you as a person. They are extremely good attorneys. They changed my life. They helped my life because they believed in me. They fought for me. I thank God for them.

C. Scarbrough

"They deserve 5 stars. Great representation!"

I will be honest. I had no clue who to contact to help answer some questions about SS Disability and whether or not I was eligible. I needed some help. I contacted Lawyers of Brown & Roberto and was called in for a consult appointment. That appointment has proven fruitful. The entire staff was very professional but friendly.
