Car accidents are a common cause of serious and catastrophic personal injuries. Carelessness, divided attention, speed – and drunk driving – along busy highways I-85, I-485, I-95, I-40 or I-77, can ruin lives in an instant. If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, you need to take action to protect your interests. At Powers Law Firm, we represent individuals throughout North Carolina who have suffered injuries in automobile accidents.
At Powers Law Firm, we carefully examine all the facts involved in your accident so that we can identify all parties responsible for injuries that may have occurred. We understand that serious car accidents seldom have a single cause and strive to determine all contributing factors. Our goal is to obtain the full and fair compensation you may deserve.
We know that injured people are often facing a difficult financial situation. Medical bills are costly and you may be unable to work if you’ve suffered serious head or back injuries. But it is important not to settle until the full extent of your injuries and losses are known. You may be able to receive compensation for:
- Damage to your vehicle
- Initial and ongoing medical costs and therapy
- Adaptive equipment you may need if you suffered a serious back or spinal cord injury
- Lost wages from missing work and future loss of wages if you cannot go back to work
Insurance companies and adjusters commonly seek a quick settlement for claims. Never sign anything without talking to a lawyer. The insurance companies have a vested interest in settling claims as quickly and inexpensively as possible. Obviously, their interests are to protect the corporation – not your individual needs.
Each party has interests to protect: financial, personal, or otherwise. We work hard to try to get you the compensation you need and deserve.
We handle car accident cases on a contingency basis, which means that no legal fees are charged unless we obtain a verdict or settlement on your behalf, although clients are ultimately responsible for costs associated with the presentation of the case.
Our phones are answered around the clock and your initial consultation is free. To schedule a complimentary evaluation, call 704-342-4357.
