Favian Vaughn
Favian Vaughn was charged with Conspiracy to Commit Double Capital Murder. He hired TCM Of Counsel Josh Bogen and those charges were dropped.
Billy and Pam Singleton
Recovering damages in a business loss claim was complicated and complex. But Jay Carmean took our case and began the long process of gathering the necessary proof and records. We could not have hoped for a more through and credible file on which to base our claim. Jay, and his staff, did a great job, start to finish, making sure that we were well represented. The final settlement covered all of our claims; and, we could not be more pleased. We would recommend Jay and everybody at TCM to anyone who ever needs legal assistance. We were always treated more like friends than clients. Their courtesy, professionalism and work ethic was absolutely top notch every step of the way.
Sherry McKenzie
On March 26, 2012, Sherry McKenzie left Tupelo High School where she taught school and was heading to the Alpha House to tutor abused and neglected children. One her way there, a car ran a stop sign and t-boned her vehicle, causing her to suffer significant injuries including a torn rotator cuff and significant damage to her car. Sherry enlisted the services of Tannehill, Carmean & Associates to assist her in recovering compensation for her lost wages, damaged vehicle, and medical bills. TCM filed suit when the insurance company refused to adequately compensate her. TCM aggressively pursued the claim and the insurance company buckled with the trial date looming.
Lorie Roberts
On the morning of December 30, 2013, Lorie Roberts was returning home from work on MS Highway 9 when a Prince Oil Company truck entered her lane and struck her car head on. She was airlifted to NMMC where an 8 hour surgery was followed by over a month in the hospital and physical therapy that continues to this day. Lorie hired Jay Carmean who filed suit against the company and its driver. A settlement was reached on the eve of mediation, less than a year from the date of wreck.
Mr. and Mrs. Ramero
We’ve had plenty of kids attend the closing of their new homes, but this was a first. Thanks to the Rameros (including Bentley) for choosing TCM.
Peggy Penamon
14 years ago I nervously went to trial on my first personal injury case. Having Peggy Penamon as a client made it much easier. We won and she’s been letting the waistline out of my suits ever since.
Jason Henson
Tupelo, Mississippi Police Officer Jason Henson was injured in a motor vehicle accident when a negligent driver ran a stop sign and struck his car. The insurance company refused to fully compensate Mr. Henson for his injuries. He hired Jay Carmean of TCM law who filed suit. The case was settled within a month.
Sheri Arbuckle
Back in March of 2013, Sheri Arbuckle was struck by another vehicle at the intersection of MS Highway 7 and U.S. Highway 278, totaling her car, leaving her incapacitated and unable to work. She hired Jay Carmean and recovered maximum policy limits as well as compensation for lost wages.
George “Chick” Miller
On February 17, 2013, George Miller’s car was hit by a drunk driver in Yalobusha County, Mississippi. Mr. Miller hired Rhea Tannehill and TCM to recover compensation for injuries and damages he suffered. TCM was able to get the maximum amount of the automobile insurance that the driver of the suffered from both the drunk driver’s insurance as well as his own under his under-insured policy.
Cowan Hunter
Cowan Hunter was sued as a result of a wreck he was involved in on May 19, 2012. Cowan came to Rhea Tannehill for advice about getting sued. After looking into the facts of the case, Rhea did not believe the wreck was Cowan’s fault, and TCM filed a counter-claim on behalf of Cowan for his injuries and lost wages – he suffered a fractured wrist and ankle which left him unable to work for a month. TCM was able to get Cowan’s case settled and he received the maximum amount of automobile insurance coverage from the driver of the other vehicle.
Terrell Parker
In 2011, Terrell Parker suffered injuries as the result of an automobile accident. When he learned a lawsuit would have to be brought under the MS Tort Claims Act, he hired TCM. Mr. Parker is shown with his attorney, Jay Carmean at today’s settlement disbursement.
Christopher Laster
Christopher Laster suffered injuries earlier this year as a result of being struck by a negligent driver. He hired Jay Carmean and his case was quickly resolved.
