Personal Injury

North Carolina is one of a handful of states where being even slightly at fault can bar recovery entirely. That rule shapes how these cases must be built from day one.

Because of contributory negligence, insurers here have an unusually strong incentive to argue that you contributed to your own injury. We investigate early - scene evidence, vehicle data, witness statements - so that argument has nowhere to go by the time the claim is presented.

We handle the medical bills, liens and property damage alongside the claim itself, and we do not settle a case before the medical picture is clear. The statute of limitations for most injury claims in North Carolina is three years, and shorter in some circumstances, so early contact matters.

Matters we handle

Car, truck and motorcycle collisions
Wrongful death claims
Premises liability and slip-and-fall
Dog bites and animal attacks
Traumatic brain and spinal injuries
Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims
Insurance bad faith
