Personal Injury
Last updated on December 11, 2025
At the North Carolina law office of R. Steve Bowden & Associates, our attorneys are committed to helping people who have been injured or who have lost a loved one as a result of negligence.
We encourage you to talk to us first, rather than to the insurance company. We want you to understand that The Insurance Company Is NOT On Your Side®. Insurance adjusters may seem friendly at first, but the reality is that they have one goal: to provide you with as little compensation as possible or none at all.
Our goal is just the opposite. We want to get you every penny of compensation that you need to cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other costs. We have decades of experience achieving that goal.
Representation For Your Personal Injury Case In Greensboro, High Point And All Of North Carolina
Since 1984, our lawyers have assisted people with negligence lawsuits involving:
- Auto accidents: From car crashes, motorcycle wrecks and tractor-trailer accidents to bicyclists and pedestrians hit on the road, we handle all types of motor vehicle accidents. In addition, we sue drunk drivers for the pain and suffering they cause in DUI/DWI accidents.
- Catastrophic injuries: Our personal injury lawyers represent victims of traumatic brain injuries, back and neck injuries and more.
- Dog attacks: One bite can change yours or your child’s life forever. Let us help you recover the compensation you need.
- Medical malpractice: We take action against negligent doctors and other medical professionals in cases involving emergency room negligence, misdiagnosis and more.
- Nursing home abuse: We represent elderly people who have been abused, neglected or injured while under the care of nursing home staff who failed to provide adequate medical support.
- On-the-job injuries: Our law firm handles a wide range of injuries that occur to employees throughout the state. We can assist with both workers’ compensation and personal injury matters.
- Wrongful death: If your loved one was killed by the wrongdoing of someone else, we will help you pursue justice.
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in North Carolina is three years from the date of the accident. For wrongful death claims, the limit is only two years. You need to act quickly to consult a lawyer.
Here Is What You Need To Know
If you have been involved in a car accident or other accident, or if you have lost a loved one, it is important to consult with experienced legal counsel. Our North Carolina accident settlement attorneys understand that consulting a lawyer may not seem vital during this difficult time. However, there are crucial things that you should be aware of.
- Your health is most important.
- You will likely experience increased soreness and stiffness days after the accident.
- Seek medical treatment even if you are not aware of an injury because it may have a delayed onset.
- The Insurance Company Is NOT On Your Side®
- The insurance company will likely contact you within 48 hours to learn how injured you are and to obtain a statement.
- Their goal may not be to make certain you are okay, but rather to undermine your opportunities for compensation.
- Their ultimate goal is to resolve the case for as little as possible.
- The insurance company will likely offer a small amount of money and request you to sign a document. Do not sign until speaking with an experienced lawyer. If you accept the money, you will lose all rights to seek truly just compensation.
