FAQs

The answer to this question depends on the nature of your case. We set our contingency fee rate based on factors specific to the cases we agree to take on.

No two personal injury cases are the same, which means it’s difficult to estimate how long yours might take. In general, a straightforward case may take a few months to settle, but complex ones involving more serious injuries or disputed liability, and especially cases that need to go to court, may take a year or more.

At Stewart Law Offices, we always aim for efficient resolutions to all claims, but never at the cost of the accountability and fair compensation you deserve.

To make the most of your free consultation, consider bringing the following documents and information:

  • Medical Records: Any records related to your injury, including doctor’s notes, treatment plans, and prescription information
  • Accident Report: A police or incident report, if available
  • Insurance Information: Both your insurance details and those of any other parties involved
  • Photographs: Photos of the accident scene, injuries, and any property damage
  • Witness Information: Contact details of anyone who witnessed the accident

These documents allow your attorney to evaluate your case more thoroughly and provide an accurate assessment of your personal injury claim.

Pain and suffering damages are intended to compensate you for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by an injury. These damages are not calculated by bills or receipts but rather by factors like the severity of your injury, your pain level, and the long-term impact on your life.

At Stewart Law Offices, our Charlotte personal injury attorneys operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you won’t pay any fees upfront. We understand the financial strain serious injuries can create, so you only pay us if we win money for you.

If you’ve been involved in an accident, it’s essential to take specific steps to protect both your health and your legal rights, including the following:

  • Document the Scene: If possible, take photographs of the accident scene, your injuries, and any other relevant details. This evidence can help establish the cause of the accident.
  • Gather Contact Information: Collect the names, contact details, and insurance information of everyone involved. Talk to any witnesses who may have seen the incident.
  • Report the Accident: Whether it’s a car accident, slip and fall, or another incident, reporting it creates a record of the incident that will likely be helpful for your claim.
  • Seek Medical Attention: Even if your injuries seem minor, be sure to get a medical evaluation. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent, and a medical record will be essential for your personal injury claim.
  • Contact a Charlotte Personal Injury Lawyer: An attorney can help you understand your rights, advise on the next steps, and start building a strong case on your behalf.

In North Carolina, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is three years from the date of the injury. This means you have three years to file a lawsuit, or you may lose your right to seek compensation. Certain exceptions exist, such as cases involving minors or situations where the injury was not immediately apparent. That said, it’s crucial to act quickly, as an untimely filed suit will likely be dismissed by the court.
