Shocked?  Can’t believe that there aren’t more cases and more trials in Williamson County, a county of $185,000?  These numbers are not that unusual – Nashville and Davidson County have more filings (1382) and more trials (69) but remember that it has more interstate highways and other roads (and thus more traffic and more wrecks) and much more other economic activity that can rise to personal injury and wrongful death claims.
