Clear Answers. Real Support.
We know legal issues can feel overwhelming. That’s why we’ve answered some of the most common questions—so you feel informed, empowered, and ready to take the next step.
General Questions
We focus on Employment Law (discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, severance), Personal Injury (car accidents, slip and falls, premises liability), Worker’s Compensation and Social Security Disability.
You can schedule a consultation by filling out our online contact form or calling our office directly at 984-480-7147. We also offer virtual and in person consultations for your convenience.
We offer free 15-minute case evaluations for most employment law and personal injury matters.
Employment Law
Maybe. North Carolina is an at-will employment state, but terminations based on discrimination, retaliation, or exercising legal rights (like FMLA or whistleblower protections) may be illegal. We can help assess your case.
A Right to Sue letter from the EEOC means you have 90 days to file a lawsuit. Don’t delay—contact us immediately so we can protect your rights.
You have the right to work in a harassment-free environment. If you’ve been subjected to a hostile work environment or retaliation for reporting misconduct, we can help file complaints or take legal action.
Yes. We’ve helped many clients negotiate severance pay, extended health benefits, and neutral references. Contact us before signing anything.
Personal Injury
Seek medical attention immediately. Then document everything (photos, reports, witnesses) and contact us to protect your rights and maximize your compensation.
That depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional impact. We evaluate each case carefully and fight for full and fair compensation.
No. We handle injury cases on a contingency fee basis. You don’t pay unless we win.
Legal Process & Fees
We charge no upfront fees to get started. Your consultation is free, and we cover the cost of preparing and filing your Social Security Disability claim or appeal.
Our fees are contingent on winning your case. We are paid directly by the Social Security Administration, and only if you are approved. The fee is 25% of your back pay, capped at $7,200 (the federal limit as of 2024). If there is no back pay, there is no fee.
In rare cases where a claim goes beyond the hearing stage into federal court, a separate fee agreement may be required. Any minimal out-of-pocket costs are disclosed upfront and often waived. Simply put: you only pay if you win.
It depends on the type and complexity of the case. Some matters resolve in weeks; others may take months or over a year. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way.
Not always. Many cases are resolved through negotiation or mediation. If trial becomes necessary, we’re fully prepared to fight for you in court.
We provide bold, compassionate, and strategic representation with a personal touch. Every client gets hands-on attention and honest guidance.
