Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
North Carolina's statute of limitations allows three years from the accident date, but exceptions may apply for delayed injury discovery.
Do you handle both contested and uncontested divorces?
Yes, we represent clients in all divorce types, including complex property division, child custody disputes, and post-divorce modifications.
What happens during a criminal defense consultation?
We review case details, explain legal options, discuss potential outcomes, and develop defense strategies tailored to the specific charges and evidence involved.
How are personal injury settlements calculated?
Settlements consider medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs. We use medical records and expert testimony to determine appropriate compensation amounts.
