In 2016, Mr. Lewellyn decided that he no longer wished to represent insurance companies and that he wanted to use his talents to make a difference in the lives of others. Since 2016, he has focused his practice exclusively on representing people who have been injured by the negligence of others. Mr. Lewellyn joined Mr. Alders in practice in January 2022, and he wants to use his experience to fight for you and ensure you receive fair compensation for your loss or injury.

From Defending Insurance Companies to Fighting for You

Eric Lewellyn knows exactly how the other side thinks, because he used to be on it. For years, he represented the insurance companies, learning firsthand the strategies they use to limit payouts and protect their bottom line. In 2016, he made a decision that changed the direction of his career: he would no longer defend insurers, and would instead put his knowledge to work for the people those companies so often overlook.

That inside experience gives his clients an edge. When Mr. Lewellyn sits across the table from an insurance adjuster, he already knows the playbook. He anticipates the tactics, counters the lowball offers, and holds the responsible parties accountable so his clients across Memphis and the Mid-South can focus on healing.

A Track Record of Results

Results speak louder than promises, and Mr. Lewellyn’s record reflects years of hard-fought advocacy for injured people in Tennessee and Mississippi. His notable jury verdicts include:

• November 12, 2017 – Benton County, Mississippi – $1,800,000.00
• March 8, 2019 – Shelby County, Tennessee – $1,387,762.93
• September 25, 2019 – Shelby County, Tennessee – $2,519,772.00

Beyond these verdicts, Mr. Lewellyn has secured numerous settlements over $500,000 for his clients. Among them are a $2,100,000 settlement in a traumatic brain injury case, a $1,200,000 settlement in an apartment shooting case, and a $900,000 settlement in a wrongful death case. Every one of these outcomes represents a person or family he helped move forward after a devastating loss.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

• Car accidents
• Truck accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Bicycle accidents
• Uber & Lyft accidents
• Railroad and train accidents

With deep courtroom experience and a background on both sides of injury litigation, Mr. Lewellyn brings a rare perspective to every case. When you hire him, you get an attorney who knows how the insurance companies operate and won’t back down until you receive the compensation you deserve.
