Johnson City Personal Injury Lawyer

Wrecks on I-26, North Roan and State of Franklin, and falls across Washington County.

Johnson City is the busiest city in the Tri-Cities, and its roads show it. If you were hurt in a wreck or a fall in Johnson City or Washington County, I’m a short drive away, and I’ll come to you if that’s easier.

Johnson City wrecks I handle

  • I-26: 779 crashes were reported on Johnson City’s stretch of I-26 from 2022 to early 2024, and nine people died. See the Johnson City I-26 page.
  • North Roan Street: the city’s main commercial corridor, with constant turning traffic
  • State of Franklin Road: a major east-west route where one of my clients was hit by a semi that ran a red light. That case resolved for $4.5 million.
  • West Market Street and University Parkway

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is different.

Washington County juries

A Washington County jury returned a $2.6 million verdict for one of my clients in a slip and fall case. I know these courtrooms, and the insurance companies know I’ll go there.

A real Johnson City case

A family of four hit on East Main Street. $2,925,000.

Four members of one family were riding east on East Main Street in Johnson City when a driver working for a local company crashed into their car. My law partner at the time, Tony Seaton, and I got the case ready for trial in Washington County. It settled for $2,925,000 for the four of them.

Every case is different. A past result does not guarantee the same outcome in your case.
