Statute of Limitations in Wilmington Personal Injury Cases

As clear as it may be that you are owed compensation, you have to file your injury claim before time runs out. In North Carolina, you usually have three years within which to file your personal injury claim after an accident. In certain cases, however, if your injury does not appear right away, then the three-year deadline could be counted from the time you realized you had those injuries, not from when you incurred them.

For example, if you were exposed to toxic fumes on the job, and you had delayed symptoms and diagnoses years down the line, then the deadline might be counted three years from the day that you found out you had those symptoms and/or diagnosis. In either case, it is best to discuss your accident or injuries with a personal injury lawyer in Wilmington as soon as possible, to find out what your legal options are and how much time you have to file a claim.

Why You Need to Work with a Wilmington Personal Injury Lawyer

While the statute of limitations can be straightforward in some cases, what makes any personal injury case in Wilmington complicated is that North Carolina is one of the few states that still has contributory negligence on the books. This means that if a plaintiff can prove that the defendant was negligent, and this negligence caused their injuries, they would still lose their case anyway if the defendant could prove that the plaintiff had also contributed to the accident.

In other words, if you are deemed to be anything more than 0% at fault for your own accident and injuries, you won't be awarded compensation. As unfair as it is, in order to successfully file a personal injury claim that proves that another driver, property owner, or other party was negligent and harmed you, you would have to also make sure that they can't try to offload some of the blame onto your plate as well. You will need to work with a trial-tested personal injury lawyer who can ensure that all the evidence is gathered and presented carefully so that it can't be misconstrued as a way for the defendant to share liability with you. You need heavyweights on your side. You need Lanier Law Group, P.A.

    "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.
