Charlotte Automobile Accident Attorney

Fighting for the Compensation You Deserve in Charlotte, Matthews & Union County

Automobile accidents are a major cause of personal injury claims in North Carolina. According to the state’s Department of Transportation, 2019 saw over 285,000 traffic crashes which was a 1.2 percent increase from the previous year. Out of these accidents, more than 125,000 people were injured and 1.470 individuals died. Over 25 percent of these fatalities involved speeding. 

Speeding is just one form of negligent or careless behavior on the part of drivers that can lead to serious injuries or death on the roads and highways of our state. When such actions occur, those responsible for the injuries they cause can be held accountable through a legal claim seeking monetary damages. At The Nesmith Firm, we represent clients every day who have been harmed in car accidents. We understand the devastating effects that auto accidents can have on your physical, emotional, and financial life. That is why we work so hard to bring you justice in the form of compensation to right these wrongs.

Auto Accident Claims in North Carolina

Traffic accidents can involve cars, commercial trucks, motorcycles, pedestrians, and bicyclists, all of whom can be injured by many forms of negligence or wrongdoing.

These can include:

  • Driving while texting or otherwise using a cell phone
  • Speeding
  • Running traffic lights and stop signs
  • Driving while under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  • Failing to yield
  • Aggressive or reckless driving
  • Defective vehicles and component parts
  • Design defects and poor maintenance of roads
  • Inattention

In all of these, the party responsible can be held accountable, generally through an insurance claim. Unfortunately, dealing with an insurance company can be problematic. These companies are commonly looking out for their own best interests as opposed to yours. They often engage in tactics designed to underpay or even deny you the damages you rightfully deserve. It is commonly known that accident victims with legal representation wind up with more compensation than those who try to handle claims by themselves. 

The Nesmith Firm can level the playing field of auto accident claims through a comprehensive preparation of your case using all available resources, such as police reports, witness testimony, photographic evidence, and more to prove fault. This can then be used to aggressively negotiate for full and fair compensation to cover all of your past and potential future medical expenses, property damage, lost income or wages, pain and suffering, and mental anguish. 

Throughout the claims process, we will keep you advised and informed as we do everything possible to help ease the burden, pain, and injustice of what you have suffered. Our goal is to secure maximum compensation to allow you to overcome the physical, emotional, and financial obstacles you face in rebuilding your health and your life after a preventable accident.
