Motor Vehicle Accidents

Car Accidents:

Whether it’s a minor fender-bender or a major collision, we handle all types of car accident claims, including those involving soft tissue injuries. In North Carolina when you’re injured in an auto accident, you may be able to file a personal injury claim to seek compensation for your damages. This can include medical expenses, lost wages and pain and suffering.

It is important to note that North Carolina follows a contributory negligence rule meaning that if the injured party is found to be even partially at fault for the accident, they may not be able to recover any compensation. Therefore, it is crucial to seek legal advice from an experienced attorney to navigate the complexities of auto accident claims in North Carolina to ensure the best possible outcome.

In North Carolina, personal injury auto accidents are a serious concern that can have devastating consequences for victims and their families. When a driver’s negligence or recklessness leads to a collision, the resulting injuries can be severe and life-altering. Victims may suffer debilitating physical trauma that requires extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. Beyond the physical toll, auto accidents can also inflict significant emotional distress, as victims grapple with the trauma of the incident and struggle to cope with the disruptions to their daily lives.

Navigating the complex legal system to seek compensation for these losses is crucial, but it can be an intimidating and overwhelming process for those unfamiliar with personal injury law.

Truck Accidents:

Large truck accidents can result in severe injuries and complex litigation. We navigate the intricacies of these cases to hold the responsible parties accountable. Trucking accidents on North Carolina’s roads and highways can have devastating consequences, often resulting in serious personal injuries or even fatalities.

Under North Carolina law, those injured in such accidents may be entitled to pursue personal injury claims to recover damages. These claims can be complex, as they must navigate the unique legal landscape surrounding the commercial trucking industry. Truck drivers are typically subject to strict regulations governing their hours of service, vehicle maintenance, and other safety protocols, and any breaches of these rules could form the basis of negligence claims. Additionally, the companies that employ these drivers and own the massive tractor-trailers may also bear responsibility for accidents through improper hiring, training, or supervision practices.

Victims of trucking accidents often sustain catastrophic injuries like traumatic brain damage, spinal cord trauma, broken bones, and severe burns, leading to astronomical medical bills, lost wages, and lifelong disabilities. Mounting a successful personal injury case requires meticulous documentation, expert witness testimony, and a thorough understanding of North Carolina’s tort laws pertaining to commercial vehicle accidents. An experienced law firm like Meridian Law can be instrumental in helping you and your family navigate this daunting legal process and secure the compensation you are rightfully owed for your immense physical, emotional, and financial losses.
