Electricity Litigation

Tennessee Electricity Litigation Lawyers

Stewart, Estes & Donnell, PLC, in Nashville, Tennessee, represents electrical cooperatives throughout the state of Tennessee. Our attorneys have developed a proven-effective proficiency in handling litigation involving electrical injuries and other issues related to electricity.

We have represented electrical cooperatives in electrical contact cases brought by individuals who have contacted electrical power lines resulting in serious injury or death. We also defend our clients in fire loss cases (house fires, barn fires), vehicular accident cases (involving electrical workers at work on the road) and other property damage related lawsuits.

Defending Electrical Cooperatives

We have successfully defended cases involving alleged “stray” voltage which was claimed to have adversely affected the milk producing capabilities of cattle. The "stray" voltage issue aired on the CBS program, 60 Minutes. Additionally, we have successfully defended through jury trial or motion resolution of numerous cases brought against electrical cooperatives for personal injuries and death as a result of contact with electrical power lines.

Our attorneys handling these cases have developed considerable knowledge and experience in applying the National Electrical Safety Code to electricity-related cases and have developed a working familiarity with electrical engineering experts across the country.

We handle these cases throughout the state of Tennessee. In addition to the trial work at the state level, we handle any appellate work related to the cases.
