Why Injured Drivers Choose Egerton
Clients turn to us because they speak directly with an
attorney, not a paralegal. Our track record includes fast settlements for I-40 pile-ups, attentive bedside visits in local hospitals and homes, and courtroom victories when insurers refuse to offer fair compensation.
Danger Zones on I-40, I-85, and North Carolina Roads
High-speed corridors like I-40, I-85, HWY 52 and U.S. 421 see spikes in distracted-driving and
tractor-trailer crashes. Construction bottlenecks near Greensboro and sudden lane shifts through High Point create additional hazards. We have a long history of representing North Carolinians and visitors to our state who are injured on our interstate highways.
What Full Compensation Really Covers
A successful claim can repay emergency room bills, ongoing physical therapy and medical care, lost income, vehicle replacement, and the emotional toll of anxiety or PTSD. We also pursue punitive damages for reckless drivers and coordinate benefits with workers' compensation, health plans, and short-term disability when needed.
Your Action Plan After a Collision
FAQ
What should I do at the scene?
Ensure safety, call 911, photograph everything, and avoid admitting fault.
Does contributory negligence affect my claim?
Yes—North Carolina’s strict rule can bar recovery if you’re even 1 % at fault. We gather evidence to counter insurance company blame-shifting tactics.
How are rental-car costs handled?
We have a former property damage adjuster on staff who can help guide
you through rental car headaches and work with the insurance company to help you get a quick repair or fair payment for your total loss.
What’s the filing deadline in NC?
The time-limit to file a lawsuit or resolve a claim can vary depending on circumstances, please give us a call so our attorneys can discuss the time-limits for your claim.
How much does it cost to hire you?
Nothing upfront - we will not ask you to pay a consultation fee, retainer or any money up front. We work on contingency - no fee unless we win compensation for you.
