How do I know if I have a legitimate personal injury case?

To determine if your personal injury case has merit, contact The Doyle Law Offices to set up a preliminary consultation. A personal injury attorney will review your situation in detail and determine if you should file a lawsuit and what you can expect to recover, based on the facts of the accident and the laws in North Carolina.

How much is my personal injury case worth?

Your personal injury case is based on various factors, including the nature of your injury or injuries, your insurance, and the insurance of the opposing party. While our Cary personal injury attorney will provide you with a rough estimate after reviewing your case, it is important to bear in mind that the amount you may be awarded (or owe) is volatile and may be more or less than we estimate. Until your case is thoroughly investigated, it is difficult to provide clients with an exact dollar amount we believe you will be awarded in our initial consultation. Due to the legal complexity, our attorneys are prohibited from promising that you will recover a certain amount or even predicting the outcome of a case.

How long will it take to settle my personal injury claim?

The good news concerning personal injury cases is that most are settled out of court which reduces the wait time of knowing the outcome of your case. As is the case with the monetary settlement amount, the time it takes to reach a settlement is difficult to predict since it varies drastically from case to case. In general, you can expect complex and unclear cases to take longer to settle than cases that are clear-cut. Additionally, cases that involve substantial injuries can take longer to settle because the opposing party will likely push back in order to delay a settlement. Hiring a personal injury attorney can motivate an insurer to make a fair offer earlier in the process.

How long with it take to get my check for a personal injury case?

After your personal injury case it settled, you can expect to receive your check shortly. After the settlement agreement is signed, most insurers will send out the check within 1-2 weeks. Our Cary personal injury attorneys will put together a settlement statement which states the monetary amount you were awarded, deductions for the attorney fees, and deductions for other related fees. Once you review and sign the settlement statement, you can take your check to bank.

Traffic-Related Cases We Handle

From car accidents to pesedtrian accidents, our law firm has experience with a diverse range of cases.

Auto Accidents

In North Carolina, car accidents remain a leading cause of injury, and victims often face significant medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress. Whether you’ve been injured in a car crash or a motorcycle accident, our Cary personal injury attorney representatives are ready to help you pursue the compensation you deserve by negotiating with insurance companies and, if necessary, going to court.

Truck Driving Accidents

While semi-trucks or tractor-trailers are a vital part of our economy, trucking accidents pose a risk on the road due to their large size and slow-stopping ability. While there was a 26% uptick in large truck accidents from 2020 to 2021, less than 1% of those accidents were fatal. In 2020, North Carolina experienced 150 fatal accidents as a result of large trucks, such as semi-trucks. Truck accident settlements are impacted by a variety of factors, including the extent of injury or damage, medical costs, and emotional distress.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents often result in severe injuries due to the lack of protection for riders. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may face significant medical bills, lost wages, and long-term recovery.

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians who are hit by vehicles often suffer catastrophic injuries, including traumatic brain injuries. These accidents can occur due to distracted driving, texting while driving, failure to yield, or poor visibility. If you are an accident victim who was struck as a pedestrian, you may be entitled to financial recovery for medical bills, rehabilitation, and more. Our Cary personal injury attorney representatives can help you decipher this.

Other Personal Injury Cases We Handle

In addition to auto-related accidents, we have decades of experience with a diverse range of the following personal injury cases:

Product Liability

Injuries caused by defective or dangerous products can lead to product liability claims. Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers can be held responsible if a product is unsafe and causes harm. Common cases involve faulty machinery, defective household products, or other unsafe consumer goods.

Defective Premises (Slip and Fall)

Premises liability cases, often referred to as slip-and-fall accidents, occur when property owners fail to maintain safe conditions. Whether on business or private property, injuries from hazards such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, or broken stairs can be serious. Our Cary personal injury attorneys help hold property owners legally responsible and recover compensation for your injuries.

Dog Bites

Dog bites can result in both physical and emotional trauma. If you’ve been injured due to an unrestrained or dangerous dog, we can help you pursue a claim to cover medical expenses, pain, and suffering. Our attorneys ensure dog owners are held accountable for failing to properly control their pets.

Workplace Accidents

Workplace injuries can occur in any industry, and the resulting medical costs, lost wages, and long-term challenges can be overwhelming. At The Doyle Law Offices, our Cary attorneys handle both workplace accident and workers’ compensation claims, helping injured employees receive the benefits and compensation they are entitled to.

Intentional Injury

Intentional acts of harm, such as physical assault or abuse, are serious legal matters. Our attorneys represent clients who have suffered intentional injuries, seeking justice and compensation for both physical and emotional damages.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one due to someone else’s actions, whether accidental or intentional, is devastating. Wrongful death cases may arise from fatal car accidents, workplace incidents, or other tragic events. Families can seek compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering.

Navigating the personal injury claim process can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with the aftermath of an accident. At The Doyle Law Offices, our Cary personal injury attorney representatives guide you through every step, ensuring that you understand your rights and are fully prepared for what lies ahead.

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Case Review

The process begins with a free, no obligation consultation where we evaluate your case.

During this meeting, we’ll explain your legal options and the best course of action.

Step 2: Investigation and Evidence Gathering

Once we take on your case, our attorneys conduct a thorough investigation. We gather important evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements. This evidence is crucial in building a strong case and proving liability, ensuring you receive fair compensation.

Step 3: Filing the Personal Injury Claim

After the investigation, we file a claim on your behalf with the responsible party’s insurance company or directly with the at-fault party. The claim outlines the damages you’re seeking, including medical expenses, lost wages, and compensation for pain and suffering.

Step 4: Negotiation and Settlement

Many personal injury claims are settled through negotiations with the insurance company. Our experienced attorneys work tirelessly to secure a fair settlement, but we will not accept less than what you deserve.
