FAQ
Charlotte personal injury questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in North Carolina?
In most cases, 3 years from the date of the injury (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 1-52). Claims against a government agency often have much shorter notice deadlines.
What if I was partly at fault for my injury in North Carolina?
If you are found even 1% at fault, you can be barred from recovering anything. This is one of the strictest rules in the country. (North Carolina common law)
Is North Carolina a no-fault car insurance state?
North Carolina is an at-fault (tort) state. The at-fault driver's liability insurance pays for the injuries they cause. You can file a claim with their insurer or sue the driver directly.
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Charlotte cost?
Most personal injury lawyers work on contingency: they take a percentage of what you recover and nothing if you lose. Percentages, and whether case costs come out before or after the fee, vary by firm, so compare fee agreements in writing.
How are the Charlotte lawyers on this page ranked?
By a 100-point score. Half comes from each firm's average position in Google Maps results for "personal injury attorney" and "car accident lawyer" searches in Charlotte; half comes from its Google rating, weighted so that a high rating from many reviews beats a perfect rating from a handful. Firms need at least 25 Google reviews, a 4.0+ rating, and a Google listing as a personal injury attorney. We are checking each ranked firm against the state bar. No firm can pay to change its rank.
