# The Gold Law Firm > A Memphis, Tennessee personal injury law firm representing injured clients throughout the greater Memphis area and across Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas. Founded in 1998 and led by attorney David A. Gold, the family-owned firm handles car, truck, motorcycle, and other accident claims, premises and product liability, nursing home abuse, wrongful death, and Social Security disability, all on a contingency-fee basis (no fee unless the firm wins). David Gold has practiced law for more than 25 years, has represented over 5,000 people injured in motor vehicle accidents, and has tried more than 50 civil and criminal cases to a jury verdict. He began his career as a criminal defense attorney, and those trial skills carry into the firm's injury work, where each case is prepared as if it will go to trial. The firm emphasizes direct attorney access rather than handing clients to case managers, operates fully remotely so clients can handle their claims from anywhere, and aims to take cases from "wreck to check" in months rather than years. - Main phone: (901) 244-5003 (free consultations) - Fax: (901) 328-1502 - Office: 25 Doctor M.L.K.
