North Carolina Auto Accident Attorneys
If you or someone you love has been injured in North Carolina, you need help and you need it now. With the medical bills piling up on top of your normal bills that you cannot pay if you are unable to work, you can quickly find your financial problems spiraling out of control. In the meantime, you still have to try to get well or take care of an injured loved one. You do not have the time or energy to fight the insurance company. A North Carolina auto accident lawyer can take that burden off your hands so you can focus on taking care of yourself and your family.
Types of Vehicle Accidents
It is important that your lawyer has experience with the type of accident you were involved in because the laws and rules differ for different types of accidents. For instance, trucking accidents are very complex and state and federal trucking regulations play a large role. If you must sue the government because your accident or injuries were caused by a defective roadway or a government employee, you will have to follow a different set of rules and will be subject to very tight deadlines.
Your accident may fall under one or more of the following:
- Auto accident
- Commercial truck accident
- Bus accident
- Pedestrian accident
- Motorcycle accident
- Bicycle accident
- Hit and run
- Rollover
- Single-vehicle accident
- Multicar pileup
- Defective vehicle
- Defective roadway
- Drunk or drugged driver
- Dram shop or social host liability
- Accident caused by a minor child
- Work-related involving Workers’ Compensation
- Accident caused by someone else who was driving in the course of their employment
- Bridge, tunnel or overpass collapse
- Distracted driver
- Serious or catastrophic injury accident
- Wrongful death
How All North Carolina Traffic Accident Victims Can Afford Legal Representation
North Carolina auto accident lawyers typically represent injury victims and the loved ones of those who were killed in accidents on a contingency fee basis. This way of doing business gives everyone access to the justice system, regardless of financial standing because you do not pay your lawyer up-front, you do not pay hourly rates, and you pay no attorneys’ fees at all if you do not win money.
You only pay attorneys’ fee if you recover compensation, and it is a percentage of what you win. Your attorney will explain the agreement and provide it to you in writing before you commit.
