Contributory Negligence in North Carolina Personal Injury Cases

North Carolina is one of the few states that still considers contributory negligence in personal injury cases. While other states would simply reduce an injury victim’s compensation by the amount of fault they share for an accident, North Carolina would deny an injury victim any compensation at all if they are considered to have shared any fault for the accident.

For example, if someone was T-boned by a drunk driver, but the defense successfully argues that the injured victim was distracted by their phone and this contributed to the accident, then it’s possible that the victim would not be awarded any compensation. As obvious as it may be that someone else was responsible for your accident and injuries, you need a skilled attorney on your side to make sure that you’re not unfairly blamed and stripped of your right to recover financial damages.

Why Our Trial Experience Matters in Personal Injury Cases

At Lanier Law Group, P.A., we have advocated and litigated for the rights of the injured for more than 25 years. With our decades of courtroom-tested experience, we have invaluable insight into how local courts operate and how to maximize our clients’ compensation at trial. Our comprehensive legal team includes accident investigators, claims coordinators, and paralegals as well as trial attorneys. If we have to go to court to protect your right to compensation for your injuries, then we are ready and confident to take your case to trial. No case is too complex for us to handle. We know how to prove that the other party was negligent and at fault and to protect our clients from blame they don’t deserve, and can’t afford.

How Much Is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?

If you have recently suffered an injury due to malpractice or negligence, you are probably wondering whether or not you have grounds to file a lawsuit for compensation. You are also probably wondering how much your personal injury claim is worth. This is a question we get asked a lot, and it’s always a difficult one to answer without having reviewed the facts of your case.

The biggest factor that is taken into consideration when determining how much a case is worth is the extent of your injuries, and they will affect your life in the immediate future and in years to come. Naturally, claims involving minor injuries are worth less than claims involving serious injuries, such as amputations, permanent disability, brain injuries, paralysis, etc.

Other factors that are often taken into consideration include:

If there was any property damage
Which person or persons is at fault for the accident
The degree to which each person involved was at fault

This last point is important. North Carolina is still a contributory negligence state, which means that if you are even partially at fault for the accident you will be extremely limited in the amount of compensation you can recover.

How Much Will It Cost Me to Hire a Lawyer?

At Lanier Law Group, P.A., when we take on a personal injury or wrongful death case, we don’t charge anything upfront. In fact, if we don’t win compensation for you, then we won’t charge you a cent. Our Asheville personal injury lawyers only get paid if you do. Our mission is to take away your financial worries so you can focus on your recovery, not add to them, while we work on making sure you have the finances to move forward after an injury or tragic loss.

"20 out of 10 stars."

There are times in your life you are so hurt and feel life has a grudge against you. Nothing in your life is going right. I lost the most important person in my life to death, of which I knew mistakes were made because I witnessed it with my own eyes. When you contact a law group you most of the time get all business and a matter of fact conversation. I want all to know that from the first phone call they listened to my lengthy story, sobbing most of the time with so much compassion. They never made any promises but offered assurances that no stone would be unturned. They fulfilled every word they said. They restored faith that I had lost. Until you are in a position like mine you can never know how invaluable Lanier Law Group is. They were wonderful while maintaining their professionalism. They treated me like a family member. They really do care about their clients. But most of all they are the best at what they do. I worked in the court system for years so I knew how attorneys and law firms basically operated. Understanding the law and it’s interpretation is the ultimate key to winning any case. Also know that if an attorney/attorneys study and review your case and know that you don’t have a chance in a court of law and are big enough to tell you that instead of giving you false hope, you then my friend have a group with valuable shared values. I have so much respect for everyone in this Law Group. I recommend Lanier Law Group, P.A. to anyone who needs representation, they are in your corner. 20 out of 10 stars.

"Lanier Law Group will always be the choice for me and all my family members"

I started working with Lanier Law Group in 2020 on my Social Security Disability case. They from start to finish were awesome. My case manager Janet Hanks and attorney, Ashley Sappenfield were always available to answer all my questions. I did not have to do much but sit back and let them handle whatever was needed. My case took too long (2 years) and if I did not have Janet and Ashley My case would still not be approved. I would recommend Lanier to anyone to get the job done and approved. Do not go to another firm with your case, who promise the world and do not see it to completion and do not think another firms would have worked as hard as they did on my case. Lanier Law Group will always be the choice for me and all my family members to handle any cases of this type and other legal services they provide. They went above and beyond!

"So thankful for your expertise and professionalism"

Mrs. Gonzalez did an awesome job of explaining everything in detail and keeping me informed on the status of my case. Despite poor customer service with the insurance company, Mrs. Gonzalez was able to fix what they could not. Mrs. Gonzalez was very helpful with helping me understand things that I was not aware of when dealing with insurance claims. I am so thankful for her expertise and professionalism.
