An insurance representative may try to approach you to make a statement about your case or try to settle your case immediately after the injury occurs.

Failure to become fully informed prior to speaking with an insurance adjustor can have drastic consequences.

Understanding Contributory Negligence in North Carolina
If you are in an accident in which you are injured, whether or not you are at fault, even slightly, can have dire consequences for any recovery you may be entitled to. North Carolina is one of a handful of states that still follows the doctrine of Contributory Negligence. What this means is that if you are found to be even 1% at fault in the accident that injured you, you will not be entitled to any recovery whatsoever, even if the other party is 99% at fault. As such, it is important that you consult with an attorney immediately after any accident.
Exploring Punitive Damages for Your Injuries
Depending on the circumstances surrounding the accident that you were injured in, you may be entitled to damages beyond the typical compensatory damages for your injuries. Punitive Damages may be available to punish the person responsible for injuring you depending on the facts surrounding your accident. It is important to hire an attorney who understands when Punitive Damages may be available and is not afraid to pursue them.
