The Difference Between Dennis & Winningham Law and a Billboard Firm

Hi, Trisha Dennis of the law firm Dennis & Winningham Law. Today I’m answering the question, what’s the difference between Dennis & Winningham Law and a Billboard firm? Well, first of all, all, we aren’t a personal injury settlement meal. We don’t settle low and go. Second, you’re never going to see Mr.

King and I on TV during every commercial break, standing on trucks or telling you with fake sincerity. Trust us, we don’t claim to be your hometown firm, though that means whoever claims that is a particularly smart lawyer who knows the best way to handle your case. We don’t even have a catchy line like Chaching to show you when the bus goes by. No, we don’t rely on spending millions of dollars on TV or billboards to get cases. Instead, we rely on getting cases the old fashioned way.

We rely upon having satisfied, delighted clients to get our cases. In fact, it satisfied former clients, other attorneys and health care professionals that refer most of our clients to us because they know we’ll take care of our clients. So what does it mean to hire an old fashioned firm like Dennis & Winningham Law instead of a Billboard or TV firm? It means every year we only accept a limited number of injury and accident cases from hundreds of people who ask us to represent them. How are we different from personal injury settlement meals?

Tricia Dennis (01:58)
In many important ways? Here’s just a few. We don’t allow paralegals and assistance to negotiate your case with the insurance company. We don’t allow assistance and paralegals to write our demand letters for settlements to insurance companies, Mr. King or I do that personally.

If you let Dennis & Winningham Law handle your case, you know who handled your case. That’s right. Either me, Tricia Dennis, or Mr. King. Not some young associate that graduated from law school last week, or even worse, a paralegal.

We don’t work with chiropractors who take what is left after the lawyers get through with their fees. We get you to a real physician. If you don’t have one or can’t afford one, we get you to a real physical therapist whether you can afford one or not. And if you need even more advanced treatment but have no health insurance or can’t afford it, we have medical finance partners we work with to arrange that as well. Finally, we take a few cases a month, not hundreds a month.

Fewer cases mean more time for you in your case. We think more time for your case means a better result in your case. If we accept your case and you are not local to us, we’ll even come to you anywhere in Tennessee and Georgia. Since 1974, my partner, Mr. Russell King, has represented accident, injury and disability claimants throughout Tennessee and Georgia.

Unlike some TV lawyers who seem to think it more important than anything to appear tough, Mr. King is a really smart lawyer, maybe the best trial lawyer I’ve ever seen and an incredibly savvy negotiator. I guess that’s why he doesn’t have to stand on a truck or go to cheating to get business. As for me, Tricia Dennis, I’ve represented accident, injury and disability claimants throughout Georgia and Tennessee since 1988. I think Ronald Reagan was President when I started.

Tricia Dennis (04:29)
My specialty is knowing as much as possible about our clients medical condition and making sure we can always prove our clients medical disability is the result of the accident. And since I’ve been negotiating with insurance companies for gosh, Nyon, 32 years I think I’ve learned a thing or two about how to maximize our client’s recovery. Now when you’re thinking about a lawsuit after you’ve been injured, you need to know if a lawyer can help get you a good settlement or win your case. If that’s the case with your claim, we’re going to tell you straight up not hold anything back. And believe it or not, we’ll also tell you if we think you would get more money by handling the claim yourself without an attorney taking a fee.

Tricia Dennis (05:25)
If your case is the kind of case that we think we can make a difference in and we think we can get a better result than you could get on your own and we accept your case. You will receive our personal attention. We will be loyal to you, we’ll be aggressive with the insurance company, we’ll keep you well informed and we’ll give you plenty of advice and information on whether you should settle or go to trial.
