Our Personal Injury Practice Areas in Asheville
Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC helps clients take action against liable parties in a number of personal injury situations. We understand that after being injured, you likely have a lot of different things on your mind. You may be missing time from work or be unable to partake in activities you once enjoyed. We want to be part of your legal support system as you begin the process of rebuilding your life.
We help claimants who have been injured in:
Car Accidents
If you were injured in an auto accident, we can gather evidence showing that the other driver’s negligence caused or contributed to the collision. We can negotiate for a fair settlement that covers your damages. If an insurance settlement does not provide the compensation you need, we can file a lawsuit and take your case to court.
Truck Accidents
A truck accident may have several liable parties, including the truck driver, the trucking company, the truck manufacturer, and others. We will investigate your accident and gather evidence to assign liability.
Motorcycle Accidents
Every motorist has a duty of care to watch out for motorcycles. Yet, too many motorists disregard this obligation, resulting in more than 3,500 crashes in 2018, according to the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV). We will hold the negligent driver liable and fight to get compensation from them.
Uber and Lyft Accidents
Uber and Lyft have exploded in popularity in the Asheville area, but their drivers are not immune to accidents. Both liability and the insurance situation can be complex in a rideshare accident. We help you navigate the process of filing a claim and collecting compensation for your collision-related expenses.
Slip and Fall Accidents
If you slipped and fell on someone else’s property, an Asheville personal injury lawyer can hold the owner of the premises financially responsible.
Medical Malpractice
If you or someone you love was injured while receiving medical care, you may have a valid medical malpractice claim against a number of parties, including the doctor, a member of the doctor’s staff, or the facility where you sought care.
Defective Products
Sometimes dangerous or defective products get released into the marketplace without proper testing. If you were injured by a consumer good, liability will rest on how the product’s defect resulted in your injuries.
Work Injuries
If your injury occurred on the job, you may be eligible to file both a worker’s compensation claim with your employer and a private lawsuit against another responsible party.
