Accidents in and around Franklin

Franklin's traffic is mostly other people's commute. I-65 carries Williamson County north into Nashville in the morning and back south at night, US-31 takes the overflow, and Mack Hatcher Parkway moves what's left around the older part of town, while somewhere north of here that same interstate crosses into Davidson County. That's why two wrecks a few miles apart can end up in different courthouses. A Franklin crash goes to the Williamson County Circuit & Chancery Courts. Tennessee's deadline is one year from the date of the crash. It doesn't pause while you wait three months for a specialist appointment. If you already have a lawyer, you don't need us.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get a crash report in Franklin?

The Franklin Police Department handles crashes inside the city limits. The Williamson County Sheriff's Office covers the county, and the Tennessee Highway Patrol works much of I-65. Tennessee crash reports are generally released through the investigating agency and the state Department of Safety and Homeland Security. Get the report number before you leave. If you were taken to a hospital, a family member can call for it.

Which court would handle a Franklin injury case?

Franklin is the county seat of Williamson County, so a suit would generally be filed in the Williamson County Circuit & Chancery Courts. That is a different courthouse from Nashville's, even though the drive is short. We're not a law firm and nothing here is legal advice. An independent, licensed Tennessee attorney can tell you where your filing belongs.

My crash was on I-65 between Franklin and Nashville. Does the county line matter?

Yes. I-65 crosses out of Williamson County into Davidson County north of town, and venue generally follows the county where the crash happened. Two wrecks a few miles apart on the same interstate can end up in front of different judges. The crash report should show the location. That one line on the form decides a lot.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Tennessee?

In Tennessee, the deadline is generally 1 year from the date of the accident. ONLY 1 YEAR for personal injury — among the shortest in the nation. Wrongful death 1 year. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
