When my brother was killed, my family chose me as our representative. We chose T.J. Smith as our lawyer. T.J. understood our loss on a personal level because he has a family of his own. The pain of loss that we felt was unbearable. T.J. took the headache out of the legalities so that we could mourn the loss of our precious brother and son. T.J. fought hard and provided excellent representation. Our family feels that we sent a message about safety to the trucking industry through this case.
T.J. was so personally involved in the case that he visited my brother’s grave as well as his bedroom in an attempt to get to know him better. T.J. still calls on the anniversary of our brother’s death. He even took time out from his own family to call my dad on Christmas Eve night. They shared a few cleansing tears. Through our case, we discovered that T.J. is not just our attorney, he is our friend. T.J. possesses the traits of hard work and integrity that were necessary for us to make a difference by taking on the trucking industry.

I have been friends with T.J. for years! He has represented my wife and me on several occasions. Not only is he personable and professional, but he is also a great friend. I can personally guarantee he will work as hard for you as he has done for us and so many others. He is great at what he does and the biggest thing that sets him apart from others is he truly cares about those he serves as he personally handles your case himself. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a reputable and hardworking individual! — Call T.J. He’ll make ’em pay!
