Contributory Negligence

North Carolina is one of the few states that applies the contributory negligence rule in personal injury cases. That means you can lose your claim for damages if you are even partially at fault for the car or truck accident that caused your injuries.

North Carolina negligence statutes are complex. Our experienced personal injury attorneys at Kelly & West understand our state's negligence laws and can help protect your right to the compensation you and your family deserve.

Wrongful Death Claims

It is important to remember in fatal accident cases that only certain people may file a wrongful death claim in North Carolina. You also have a short time limit. A Raleigh wrongful death lawyer from the law firm of Kelly & West can provide clear but compassionate legal advice during this difficult time of adjustment to your family's loss.

In your personal injury or wrongful death case, we will make sure that your claims are properly filed in order to avoid disputes with the insurance carrier or government, or between family members.
