Transparent, Contingency-Based Pricing

At our firm, we believe everyone deserves access to quality legal representation, regardless of financial circumstances. That’s why we handle all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis.

  • No Upfront Costs: Our fee is a percentage of the settlement or verdict, so we’re only paid when you recover compensation.

  • No Win, No Fee: We only get paid if we win your case, so our success depends on securing the compensation you deserve.

  • Free Consultation: We offer a free consultation to discuss your case and explain our contingency fee structure.

Avoid These Common Mistakes in Personal Injury Claims

  • Missing the Statute of Limitations: North Carolina law requires most personal injury claims to be filed within three years. Filing late can result in losing your right to compensation.

  • Failing to Prove Negligence: Strengthen your case with proper documentation, including photos of the scene, medical records, and witness statements.

  • Settling Too Quickly: Initial settlement offers are often too low. Consult an attorney to ensure fair compensation for your injuries and losses.

  • Hurting Your Claim Through Inaction: Delaying medical care, ignoring follow-up treatments, or posting on social media can harm your case and reduce your chances of success.

  • While you are not required to hire a lawyer for your personal injury case, having experienced legal representation can significantly increase your chances of securing a fair settlement or judgment. A lawyer will handle the legal complexities, negotiate with insurance companies, and ensure that your rights are protected throughout the process.

  • Most personal injury attorneys, including myself, work on a contingency fee basis. This means that you only pay legal fees if we win your case. The fee is typically a percentage of the settlement or award you receive, so there’s no upfront cost to you.

  • The average settlement for a personal injury case can vary widely depending on the circumstances, such as the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and liability. Every case is unique, and I will work hard to secure the maximum compensation you deserve based on your specific situation.

  • Initially, you may be responsible for paying your medical bills, but in a personal injury case, the responsible party’s insurance company may ultimately cover your expenses, including medical treatment, rehabilitation, and future care. Your attorney will work to ensure that all your medical costs are taken into account when seeking compensation.

  • The duration of a personal injury case can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the severity of your injuries, and how long it takes to reach a fair settlement. While some cases settle quickly, others may take longer, especially if they go to trial. I’ll keep you informed and work efficiently to resolve your case as promptly as possible.

  • If the insurance company contacts you, it’s important to be cautious. They may try to offer a quick settlement or ask for statements that could hurt your case. It’s best to refer them to your attorney, who can handle all communication with the insurance company to protect your rights and interests.

  • In Wilmington, NC, personal injury cases are governed by North Carolina state law, which includes statutes of limitations and comparative negligence rules. North Carolina follows a "contributory negligence" rule, which means that if you are found even partially at fault for the accident, you may be barred from recovering compensation. It’s important to have an attorney who understands these nuances to maximize your chances of success.
