Charles D Wright Attorney

Criminal Defense
If you have been accused of motor vehicle theft, the following steps are not quite as simple. In some cases, this accusation may be truthful, in others, the situation may be far more complex. Regardless, there is one step ubiquitous to all cases: contacting a criminal defense attorney. They can help develop a legal defense to best represent you and your motor vehicle theft case.
DUI/DWI
This used to be just “drunk driving,” but with the prevalence of drugs that can affect a driver’s reaction time and mental sharpness, a more general term of driving under the influence has been included. Whether a driver was smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol, or taking a strong prescription painkiller, any of these can affect a persons’ ability to drive safely, and this is one of the leading causes of auto accidents.
Wrongful Death
If you are a resident of Tennessee and your loved one has died as a result of a car accident, you may be entitled to compensation for a wrongful death suit.
Traffic Violations
Excessive speed can be a prominent cause of accidents. After all, the faster you go, the harder it is to control your vehicle, the longer it takes to stop, and the slower your reaction time is (in terms of distance traveled). When you think about cars which pass you on the highway or those that seem to accelerate at a yellow light to get through an intersection, you can almost sense either an accident or a speeding citation in that driver’s near future.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Typically, motor vehicle theft is classified as a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the state and severity of the crime. However, some states have additional nuanced penalties depending on the type of motor vehicle theft committed. For example, in the state of Alaska, operating the vehicle in “a dangerous way” during the theft increases the potential punishment. In California, if the vehicle stolen was a police car, the level of vehicle theft increases from a misdemeanor to a serious felony. Texas gets even more nuanced — if the vehicle theft was committed in county designated by the governor as disaster area, the penalties are increased. Furthermore, as is typically the case with most crime, repeat offenses increase the severity of the penalties associated with it.
Murder
The original purpose of wrongful death statues was to allow widows and orphans to receive support after their benefactor had died. They were also designed to encourage people to prevent death due to negligence. Wrongful death suits are separate from criminal charges. Criminal cases and civil cases regarding someone’s death won’t impact each other. Because of this, someone can be sued by a victim’s family even after they were acquitted of murder.
Hit and Run
It is unfortunate that relatively few people are forthcoming and willing to own up to causing an accident on the roads. There are far too many hit-and-run accidents in America, and these kinds of incidents are difficult to prosecute and pursue when one of the parties to the accident disappears to try to escape accountability.

Construction Litigation
As with all legal cases, there exists a statute of limitations that dictates the amount of time someone has to file for pain and suffering compensation. In personal injury cases, noneconomic damages must be filed within 1 year that the accident occurred. Property damage cases can be filed within 3 years of an accident. Construction, construction defect, and warranty breach cases can be filed within 4 years of an incident.
Property Damage
, there were 38,000 hit and run accidents in NYC in 2015. While this is a much higher number, so is the population. Proportionally, Los Angeles still beats out NYC as the city with the most. Most of these accidents involved some form of property damage, 4,000 involved injuring another person, and 48 involved serious injury or death. NYC is not high on the list as far as pedestrian danger index is concerned.

Personal Injury
When you are injured you do not need the stress of handling a lawsuit on your shoulders, our dedicated personal injury attorneys will be by your side handling every aspect of the case so you can focus on resting and recovering. We have successfully litigated against major insurance companies and helped our clients recover damages for lost wages, medical expenses and pain, and suffering.
Medical Malpractice
Most of us know exactly how scary a car accident can be. This is especially true when someone is injured in the collision. Arriving authorities, paramedics included, must often administer immediate treatments after making a diagnosis — and rarely is there any time at all to hesitate. Because there is so little time when lives are in the balance, misdiagnosis of injuries after a car accident is a common form of medical malpractice.
