It only takes a moment for an accident to upend your life completely. Fortunately for injury victims, legal recourse is always available with the help of a skilled, compassionate personal injury attorney.
Let’s say you are walking up a dimly lit stairwell and you slip and fall because of a broken stair – the property owner or manager can be held accountable for their failure to maintain their property and prevent unseen hazards.
North Carolina follows the doctrine of contributory negligence. Per Chapter 1, Civil Procedure of the North Carolina General Assembly, victims have the right to seek compensation for injuries and losses when an accident occurred through no fault of their own.
But, what if opposing counsel claims contributory negligence? Here, if the opposing party can prove that you contributed to the accident in any way, even one percent, compensatory recovery is not an option. These are the type of complications that can arise in any personal injury case.
With a lawyer by your side, you can prove your accident should never have happened in the first place. That’s why it’s always incredibly helpful to at least schedule a consultation with a Charlotte, NC personal injury attorney from Edwards Injury Law to ensure you’re taking the right steps to build the strongest claim possible.

a week agoMr. Edwards is an exceptional legal representation for those that are looking for a top notch personal injury attorney that uses client centered approach. He went over and beyond the call of duty in helping my mother secure the figures she deserved in her personal injury settlement. I would highly recommend his services. Surely five stars are appropriately given!!

a month agoI want to take time out today to write a review about my experience with Attorney Edwards I called his law firm well after business hrs. Initially impressed with the professionalism of his after hrs call personnel. Then even more impressed with the fact Attorney Edwards was available to speak with Me about my son’s accident, mind you this is well after 8 pm . He was genuinely concerned actively listened. Took time out of his evening with his family to see about mine. He didn’t rush me or tell me to call him in the morning He explained the process and tailored the steps according to my specific situation. Truly a man of integrity intelligence substance patience and a passion for his profession.. That’s an attorney you need and want to represent you .. He is a well decorated Veteran per his bio and every honor well deserved in my opinion..

2 months agoI'm incredibly grateful for Edwards Injury Law and the outstanding legal representation they provided in my case. They took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions with patience and made me feel confident going into court. Their expertise and strategic approach led to a successful outcome. If you need an attorney who genuinely cares and will fight for you, I highly recommend Kevin Edwards and his team.
