FAQs
If you were injured because another person or company acted negligently—such as in a car crash, workplace incident, or unsafe property situation—you may have a claim. An attorney can evaluate whether the evidence supports pursuing compensation under North Carolina law.
In most cases, North Carolina’s statute of limitations gives you three years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. However, claims involving government entities or special circumstances may have shorter deadlines.
Crashes on major roadways like I-85, NC-147 (Durham Freeway), or I-40 often involve high speeds, commercial vehicles, or multi-car collisions. These cases can be complex, and proper investigation is critical to establishing liability and damages.
If a lawsuit is filed, your case may proceed through Durham County Civil Superior Court. Many cases resolve through settlement, but it’s important to have attorneys prepared to litigate locally if necessary.
Compensation may include medical expenses, lost income, future medical care, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and other related damages. The value depends on the severity of your injuries and long-term impact.
Personal injury cases are typically handled on a contingency fee basis. You pay no upfront attorney’s fees, and we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
Before giving recorded statements or accepting a settlement offer, it’s wise to speak with an attorney. Early insurance offers often undervalue the full impact of your injuries.
