Unique Risks and Challenges in Motor Vehicle Accident Claims
Motor vehicle accidents present a wide range of risks and complexities, including:
- Car Accidents: Rear-end collisions, intersection accidents, and distracted driving incidents, or driving under the influence can result in severe injuries such as fractures, concussions, and whiplash.
- Motorcycle Accidents: Without the protection of a vehicle frame, motorcyclists are at higher risk for traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and broken bones.
- Trucking Accidents: Commercial trucks pose unique dangers due to their size and weight. These accidents often involve multiple parties and require thorough investigation.
- Pedestrian Accidents: Pedestrians struck by vehicles often suffer catastrophic injuries, including head trauma and internal injuries.

Your Rights as an Auto Accident Victim in North Carolina
Understanding your rights is critical after an accident. Key considerations include:
- Determining Fault: North Carolina follows contributory negligence laws, meaning you must prove the other party was entirely at fault to recover compensation. Contributory negligence in NC bars recovery.
- Filing Deadlines: In most instances, you have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim, but acting sooner improves your chances of success.
- Handling Uninsured Drivers: If the at-fault driver is uninsured, we’ll explore other avenues, such as your own uninsured motorist coverage, to secure compensation.
We’ll guide you through every step of the process to protect your rights and maximize your recovery.
