Your Time is Limited in North Carolina to File a Car Accident Lawsuit
According to G.S. § 1-52, you generally have three years to comply with the personal injury statute of limitations. Similarly, you generally have two years to comply with the wrongful death statute of limitations, per G.S. § 1-53. Our law firm will handle the filing of your lawsuit with the Henderson County courthouse, ensuring it is submitted on time, as filing late could result in losing your right to take legal action.
Collecting Evidence to Substantiate Your Hendersonville Car Accident Claim
Fault for your vehicle accident can be established through a comprehensive collection of compelling evidence. Our legal team will handle evidence collection for you rather than taxing you or your family with this potentially daunting task.
The case file we prepare for your claim will include:
- The official police report and any attachments, including descriptions and diagrams
- Medical records describing your accident injuries, their cause and severity
- Statements from accident witnesses and relevant experts, including emergency medical care
- Photos of your injuries, the accident scene, and all vehicles involved
- The at-fault driver’s insurance policy with details on coverage amounts and the claims process
We also collect evidence that proves the accident’s financial consequences, including medical bills, car repair bills, car replacement estimates, and proof of lost income.
How Our Hendersonville Car Accident Lawyers will Prove Negligence
The evidence we collect for you will prove the elements of negligence that allow you to pursue the negligent driver. These elements include the following:
- Duty of care: The obligation to drive safely and in accordance with traffic laws.
- Breach of duty: Any action taken by the at-fault driver that violates their legal obligation.
- Causation: The direct correlation between the at-fault driver’s action and your accident and injuries.
- Damages: The financial expenses and losses resulting from the accident and your injuries.
These elements comply with North Carolina’s negligence laws and can be used to refute any allegations that you contributed to the wreck, which could decrease or eliminate your recoverable damages.
Protect Your Health and Your Rights After a Car Accident in Hendersonville
The steps you take immediately after a car accident can have a direct impact on your physical and financial recovery. We advise clients to do the following:
- If you can, move to the side of the road. If the car is inoperable, and if your injuries permit, you should move to the side of the road.
- Check yourself, your passengers, and the other driver for injuries.
- Call 9-1-1 for emergency services. Allow the police to generate a report. If it is necessary, take an ambulance to the emergency room.
- Limit what you say to the facts as you know them. Don’t speculate or guess why things happened. Do not admit fault or apologize.
- Take pictures, videos, and notes while you are at the accident scene. Collect contact information from any witnesses.
- If you did not go to the emergency room, see a doctor as soon as possible. Let them diagnose your injuries, run tests, and take images.
- After your doctors diagnose your injuries, follow their orders. Don’t skip appointments or stop treatments without discussing it with them first.
Then, contact our law firm.
