We have recovered damages in a variety of personal injury claims, including:

• Auto accidents
• Tractor trailer accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Child/pedestrian/bicyclist accidents
• Drunk driver accidents
• Third party lawsuits in workplace injury
• Nursing home negligence — We hold long-term care facilities accountable for neglect, abuse or medical mistakes leading to death or serious injury or illness. We can help you seek compensation for advanced stage bed sores, falling injuries, dehydration and malnutrition, medication errors, physical abuse and other unforgivable harm.
• Slip and fall — We take only cases resulting in surgery or permanent disability. Our lawyers have held retail stores, supermarkets, restaurants, landlords and other entities accountable for damages from dangerous conditions such as slick floors, falling objects, inadequate lighting or tripping hazards.
• Serious dog bites — When animal attacks result in facial injuries, severe bite wounds or nerve damage, we have sued for damages to cover disfigurement, reconstructive surgery and medical care, disability and the emotional trauma of young victims. North Carolina law makes the owner strictly liable for unprovoked attacks if the dog has bitten or displayed vicious behavior in the past.
• Catastrophic injuries — Compensation should be adequate to cover years of special needs and lost earnings for a brain injury, spinal cord injury, amputation, third-degree burn or other major injury. We often work with life-care planners and other experts to determine the future cost of surgeries, medications, medical equipment, physical rehab, mental health care, home remodeling and other needs. Damages also include pain and suffering and lost quality of life.
• Fatal accidents — We pursue wrongful death lawsuits resulting from any of the scenarios above. Our attorneys work with survivors to make a case for the loss of companionship, love, support and services, as well as the pain and suffering of the victim prior to death.
