Trucking accidents

A recent year’s USA statistics recorded that a staggering 121,000 large trucks or buses were involved in injury accidents, with 176,000 people suffering injuries. North Carolina is the location of many of these incidents as reported by the NCDOT (North Carolina Department of Transportation) – trucks were involved in 3747 injury crashes and 152 fatal crashes in North Carolina in a recent year. If you or someone you love was injured or killed in a collision with a commercial truck, it is critical that you seek legal assistance as soon as possible after the incident.

Motor vehicle accidents

Motor vehicle accidents are on the rise in North Carolina. These accidents often result in serious, catastrophic, or fatal injuries to innocent drivers and their passengers. When another driver has engaged in negligent driving behavior, whether drunk, drug intoxicated, distracted, speeding, or other dangerous driving conduct, that party must be held accountable for their actions.

Premises liability

When a retail store, restaurant, entertainment facility, amusement park, sports venue, or other location fails to maintain the premises to be safe for guests, visitors, or employees, serious injuries or loss of life can be the tragic result.

Our attorneys at Tin Fulton Walker & Owen, PLLC will review the facts in the case to advise you of your legal right to pursue compensation for all damages.

Product liability

A faulty consumer product can cause serious harm when:

The manufacturer, distributor, seller, or wholesaler of a defective has allowed a faulty product to be sold
The seller of the product has failed to warn consumers of the dangers of the product
The injuries were the result of a manufacturing defect, a design error, or another issue that caused the product to be unreasonably dangerous

In these cases and others, a claim or lawsuit can be filed to seek damages.

Medical malpractice

Medical professionals are held to a high standard. When a medical practitioner has not met the accepted standard of care in performing diagnosis, treatment, the administration of medications, or another issue, a medical malpractice claim or lawsuit can be filed by the injured party or their estateto pursue compensation for all damages.

Construction accidents

Construction sites are among the most dangerous work environments in the USA. Many construction accidents causing serious or fatal injuries may allow for a third-party claim to be filed to seek compensation beyond what is provided under the workers’ compensation system in the state.

Nursing home abuse

When an elderly loved one requires a level of care that you cannot provide at home, you may have entrusted a nursing home to care for them. It can come as a shock to discover your loved one has been the victim of neglect, physical abuse, acts of violence, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, or financial abuse. If your loved one was a victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, you might have the right to file a claim or lawsuit against the facility.

Inadequate security

Property owners or managers are required to provide a reasonable level of security to protect visitors, tenants, guests, and employees who may be present on the property. A case of inadequate security must establish that it was foreseeable that a crime was likely to occur on the property and that the owner or manager failed to provide adequate security.

Wrongful death

The loss of a loved one is a tragic and emotional experience, but when the death was preventable and was the result of a negligent or reckless act, the decedent’s estate representative can file a legal action to pursue compensation from the responsible party.
