read moreMedical malpractice and other types of malpractice cases are some of the most complex and difficult actions undertaken by attorneys. They are also typically very expensive to litigate, costing normally $25,000.00 to $100,000.00. Favorable verdicts in these cases are the exception rather than the norm. As a result, most firms which handle such matters are very cautious about the ones they take to trial. Obviously, it is important to evaluate these cases realistically and practically. That's what we do.
read moreWorker's Compensation claims are handled through the Industrial Commission rather than our local courts. It is very important that you obtain legal counsel for any such proceeding or claim, since the laws in this area are quite complex, and employers and insurance carriers generally know the laws fairly well, but employees usually do not. If you are ever injured on the job (or suffer an occupational disease such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis or black lung disease), then go immediately to your own family doctor.

We often travel out of town for such cases, usually to neighboring counties, but sometimes as far away as Charlotte for Federal Criminal Court. We handle a significant amount of DWI's, Driving While License Revoked, and Reckless Driving cases, as well as other criminal traffic matters. Our fees are very competitive, and are structured according to whether the disposition is by trial or plea.

The basic rule of thumb for qualifying for bankruptcy is that your debts must be greater than your assets. There are two basic kinds of bankruptcy for individual debtors, Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. In a Chapter 7 or "straight" bankruptcy, most debts are generally cancelled. This case is resolved more quickly than a Chapter 13 case.

It is common for insurance companies to send adjusters immediately to the accident scene to take photographs and gather data. Adjusters often contact accident victims and ask for a recorded statement. It is likewise, just as important that you preserve proof of your injuries, pain, suffering and damages, as well as any evidence of the negligence of the person who caused the accident.
Wills
read moreOur firm regularly drafts wills. Most people prefer simple wills, leaving property to their spouse, and upon the spouse's death, to their children, etc. However, we also draft much more complex documents which establish trusts for a spouse, the children, or both. Unless you have a large estate (over $1,000,000), you really don't need to consider the advantages of a marital deduction trust or other tax shelter trust. However, it is common for even small estates to desire trusts to insure the proper use of funds by children.
