Williamsburg Personal Injury & Car Accident Lawyers

Williamsburg is more than just a college town; it is the gateway to Kentucky. With thousands of vehicles pouring in from Tennessee on Interstate 75 and a bustling student population at the University of the Cumberlands, our roads are a unique mix of heavy freight, local commuters, and young drivers.

When accidents happen here—whether it’s a semi-truck losing its brakes coming down Jellico Mountain or a pedestrian accident on Main Street—the consequences can be devastating.

At Freeman Childers, we understand Whitley County. As a firm with deep roots in this region, we know that an accident in Williamsburg isn't just a case file; it's a neighbor, a student, or a local family whose life has been turned upside down. We fight to ensure you get the compensation you deserve.

Handling Williamsburg’s Specific Dangers

We investigate accidents in the high-risk zones that define Williamsburg traffic:

• Interstate 75 (Exit 11): The "Gateway" interchange is notorious for high-speed wrecks as trucks merge with local traffic heading to the water park or the university.

• Cumberland Avenue / Hwy 92: The commercial spine of the city. Congestion here leads to frequent rear-end collisions and T-bones at busy intersections.

• University of the Cumberlands Campus: Representing students injured in crosswalks or bicycle accidents on Walnut Street and 10th Street.

• US-25W (The "Back Road"): Dangerous curves and narrow lanes used by locals to bypass the interstate, often leading to head-on collisions.

The University Factor

Williamsburg's population swells every semester with students from across the country.

• If you are a student: We help you navigate the legal system even if your parents are states away.

• If you were hit by a student: We know how to investigate liability when dealing with out-of-state insurance policies.
