Our personal injury lawyers can help you in the same way we have helped thousands of other injured victims recoup the damages due to them for injuries sustained due to the negligent actions of others.

Causes of Personal Injuries

The most common way that someone becomes injured is through the negligent, reckless and careless action or inaction of another party. This may be an individual person, group of people, a company, or a governmental entity. Someone’s the bad judgment or lack of care for human life can lead to what amounts to a lifetime of pain and suffering for the victim in a personal injury case. Sometimes victims are just in the wrong spot at the wrong time. Regardless, if you are now dealing with the consequences of someone else’s negligence, you have a right to hold them accountable for their actions as a result of:

• A car wreck
• A slip-and-fall accident
• A dog bite attack
• A dangerous or defective consumer product
• A boat, bicycle, or train accident
• A big truck accident
• Medical malpractice
• An accident in the workplace

Seeking Compensation for Personal Injury Claims

The facts in your case determine for the most part the damages that you may be eligible to collect from the at-fault party and/or the insurer in the case. Typically, reimbursement for damages includes a mix of medical costs, lost income, property damage, future costs of medical care, and diminished capacity to earn a living. As a victim, it is also possible for you to collect monetary compensation for mental and physical pain and suffering, and if you have experienced injuries that are serious enough to leave you permanently disabled or disfigured, your collectible damages may be even greater.

Personal Injury Claims: Time is of the Essence

The civil statute of limitations for personal injury claims in the state of North Carolina is limited. This means that the clock begins to tick on the time you have to file your claim from the moment you are injured. If you fail to act in that timeframe, then you may lose your ability to file a claim. Because of this, it is important to not waste time, and quickly seek legal advice.
