In seeking just compensation for injuries caused by the negligent actions of others, civil justice attorneys ensure all citizens can get justice in the courtroom, even when taking on the most powerful interests. This is more important now than ever because big insurance companies and other large corporations have so much control over our lives.

Our statewide and regional practice emphasizes the rights of accident victims against the major corporations, hospitals, and insurance companies that too often compromise the safety of ordinary citizens in the interests of profit. We're here to hold the rich, the powerful, and the privileged to account for your losses.

In complex litigation involving serious personal injuries resulting in disability or death, we provide our clients with sophisticated, professional, and effective representation on a broad range of range of tort claims from surgical negligence to liability for defective products. Other attorneys and law firms often associate with us, both within North Carolina and around the nation. Our past success enables us to commit very substantial legal and investigative resources to the prompt development and proof of every essential detail of your claim.

One advantage we enjoy as a law firm is our ability to respond quickly to our clients' needs. Tom Comerford is a licensed pilot with his own Twin Commander Prop Jet and over 6000 hours of flying experience. Our ability to reach remote accident scenes promptly helps us meet with clients, inspect evidence, work with forensic experts, and represent our client's interests in litigation involving plane crashes or truck accidents all over the South, and around the country.

AV-rated* trial attorneys Tom Comerford and Cliff Britt are both graduates of the Wake Forest University School of Law, where each served as editors on the law review. Each is active in professional, community, and alumni organizations. Our other five attorneys also combine outstanding academic credentials with a thorough understanding of the legal and practical challenges of high-stakes personal injury litigation.

We carefully limit the number of cases we handle at any given time so that each of our clients can benefit from our personalized service and close attention to their cases. We handle most cases on a contingent fee basis and advance all litigation expenses at our own risk -- collecting attorneys' fees and recovering our expenses only when we collect damages through negotiation or at trial.
