FAQs

Are truck accidents handled differently than car accidents in North Carolina?

Yes. Truck accidents often involve federal and state regulations, multiple insurance companies, and commercial trucking laws. Because of these complexities, pursuing compensation can be more complicated than standard car accidents.

What should I do immediately after a car accident in North Carolina?

After a car accident, ensure everyone’s safety and call 911 if there are injuries. Move vehicles out of traffic if possible, exchange information with the other driver(s), and document the scene with photos. Notify your insurance company promptly and consider contacting a personal injury attorney to protect your rights.

Who is eligible for workers’ compensation benefits in North Carolina?

Most employees injured on the job are eligible, including full-time, part-time, and seasonal workers. Independent contractors are generally not covered, so it’s important to confirm your employment status.

What is considered a personal injury in North Carolina?

A personal injury occurs when someone is harmed due to another person’s negligence or intentional actions. Common examples include car accidents, slip-and-fall injuries, workplace accidents, medical malpractice, and product defects.

What types of damages can I recover in a personal injury case?

You may be eligible to recover economic damages, such as medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages like pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of quality of life. In rare cases, punitive damages may apply.
