Car accidents are something we all try to avoid, yet they happen every day. When injured in an accident, it's hard to know what to do first. Many accident victims are not equipped to deal with the challenges that follow a car accident, such as handling extensive paperwork and dealing with insurance companies. Unfortunately, insurance companies who want to pay them as little as possible often take advantage of victims.
Without legal assistance, getting the most compensation you need after an accident can be difficult. When you are involved in a car accident, you need a lawyer on your side who can assist you in obtaining the compensation you require to support your family and move forward. We understand how stressful the immediate aftermath of a car crash can be, and we want to assist you. Our compassionate car wreck attorneys at Grimes Teich Anderson have decades of combined experience resolving complex car accident cases and obtaining results for people who have been wrongfully injured.*
Protecting Your Rights Against the Insurance Companies
Many injured people think settling a claim after an accident is easy. Victims often assume they know what their claim is worth and that the insurance company will pay without putting up a fight. Unfortunately, that couldn't be any further from the truth.
Many insurance adjusters are personable and friendly at first. However, as tempting as it may be, do not provide an insurance company with a recorded statement or accept any insurance company settlement offers without consulting a personal injury attorney. Insurance companies owe their loyalty to their policyholders and stockholders. They are in the business to make money, not to help you.

Awesome firm! Chris Connolly took time to listen and review our situation. He was very honest and upfront about the process and potential outcomes. My daughter’s case has some complexities and Chris explained every detail and possibility. Bottom line, he fought for us and won!!! I would rate them 10 stars if possible.

Needing an attorney was never something I wanted to need, but I did and thanks to Anna H. and Katie G. it was not so overwhelming. Having to deal with a legal issue and having a trusted attorney is key. I had no idea what to expect during the duration of the time I needed legal representation but Anna and Katie not only keep me well informed but also explained things to me in a way that made sense. If you happen to find yourself in need of legal representation I highly recommend them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Following an accident, there are some things you may do to preserve your rights to compensation—and some things you should avoid doing at all costs.
- Don't apologize: You should never apologize after a car crash, regardless of the circumstances. If you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit, the other party's insurance company may try to use this apology against you as an admission of guilt.
- Collect the other party's information: Even though you'll be seeking compensation via your own insurance company initially, you'll need the other party's insurance information in case you need it in the future.
- Report the accident to law enforcement: A police report is an important piece of evidence for your car accident claim.
- Take photos of the vehicles and scene: If you need to establish fault later on, photographic proof of the collision might be quite helpful.
- Document your injuries: Take photos of any injuries hours, days, and weeks after the accident. You may also keep track of how your symptoms have changed over time and how they've affected your everyday life in a journal.
- Seek medical attention: You may not notice the full extent of your injuries for days or weeks after the accident because of the shock. If you have physical problems from the wreck, you should see a doctor as soon as possible so that your injuries may be documented and treated. Failure to seek care or delaying care that you need will be used against you, do don’t fall into that trap.
- Let an attorney do the talking: Your insurance company, unfortunately, is not always on your side. They may take advantage of policyholders who are unfamiliar with insurance and personal injury law. That is why you need the services of an attorney who will fight for your best interests.
Every state has its own approach to determining liability and allocating damages after a car accident. North Carolina uses a contributory negligence system. Meaning, if the driver suing for damages contributed in any way to the accident, then they cannot receive compensation from the other driver–even the other driver is 99% to blame for the crash. These rules are complicated and you should consult an attorney to discuss how the court applies them.
You have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in North Carolina. There are special circumstances that can shorten that time, for example when the at fault party is associated with the government. It's ideal to begin your personal injury claim as soon as possible after an accident so that your lawyer may talk with the insurance company on your behalf and begin gathering evidence to defend your claim.
