Catastrophic Injuries
No personal injury case is ever too small for our firm, but in the case of catastrophic injuries, we are especially invested in pursuing compensation for our victims. The more catastrophic an injury is, the more imperative it is that victims receive the compensation for the likelihood of years of medical treatments and compensation for years of lost wages.
Few cases are as heartbreaking as severely catastrophic injury cases, which is why we are so committed to helping these victims receive justice.
Motorcycle Accidents
North Carolina is known to rank as one of the most dangerous states for motorcyclists, and unfortunately, that means many injured motorcyclists. If you or a loved one were injured in a motorcycle accident due to another driver’s negligence, contact our firm for a free case evaluation. You may be entitled to compensation that will help you and your family repair and rebuild your life.
Wrongful Death
When a North Carolina death is wrongfully caused by the negligent and/or careless actions of another, Raleigh victims may be entitled to money damages and compensation for the family loss. Our team handles wrongful death claims pertaining to vehicular accidents such as auto, bicycle, motorcycle and truck accidents. We also represent families in wrongful death lawsuits concerning defective products, slip and falls and work-related wrongful deaths.
Construction Accidents
If you or a loved one has been injured on a construction site, reach out to our firm for a free case evaluation. We can help you file a personal injury lawsuit and/or workers’ compensation case to help you and your loved ones receive the compensation needed to recover and rebuild your life.
Examples of construction accidents we handle include scaffolding accidents, falls from heights, falling objects, defective equipment, fires and electrocutions.
Defective Products
Product manufacturers have a duty of care to take reasonable measures to ensure their products are safe for consumer use. When this standard is not met, consumers can be needlessly harmed and injured by these dangerous and defective products.
If you or a loved one has been harmed by a defective product, you may be owed money damages. Talk to our firm to determine the best way to proceed with a defective products lawsuit to hold a negligent manufacturer accountable for your injuries.
What happens in a personal injury case?
After you file a personal injury lawsuit, the defendant will be served a summons and a summary of your claims against them, and they will be required to file a response to your complaint. Then, to prepare for trial, both parties will engage in discovery, which is a formal process of obtaining information pertaining to the case.
When discovery is complete, you will be ready to go to trial. However, we will usually first try to settle the case out of court through mediation.
What should I do if the other party’s lawyer or insurance company calls me?
We typically recommend that you not communicate with anyone connected to the opposing party. Although an insurance adjuster may seem friendly, he might be trying to obtain a statement from you that mitigates the at-fault party’s liability. If someone contacts you, tell them to speak with your attorney.
How much is my case worth?
If you have been injured as a result of another person’s negligence, you may be entitled to receive compensation for out-of-pocket expenses related to your injury, including medical costs and lost wages. The exact amount of that compensation depends on the extent of your injuries and the impact they have on your life. We have extensive experience evaluating personal injury cases and estimating the potential settlement value. Please contact us today to arrange a complimentary consultation with an attorney.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit?
For most personal injury claims in North Carolina, the statute of limitations is three years. This means that you have three years from the date the injury occurred to file a personal injury lawsuit. Certain types of cases, such as wrongful death lawsuits and workers compensation claims, have a two-year statute of limitations.
How much does a personal injury lawyer cost?
To ensure access to legal representation, even when you can’t afford to pay for it, personal injury litigation is generally handled on a contingent fee basis. This means that you don’t have to pay any attorney’s fees unless we win you a judgment or a settlement. The fee structure is generally a percentage of the judgment or settlement, and you keep the remaining balance.
