Injuries sustained in a personal injury accident can vary in severity, but whether you suffered harm from a negligent surgeon or drug manufacturer, your injuries probably required medical treatment. Even if you recovered after a few weeks, you deserve financial compensation from the at-fault party for your losses and the expenses you incurred.
Some of the most common injuries associated with personal injury accidents include:
Many injuries lead to permanent damage, impairment, or disability. Unfortunately, if you suffer a permanent injury, you may be unable to return to work. Some people wind up with certain impairments that prevent them from performing household chores and require additional help at home. At DeMayo Law Offices, we will thoroughly review the injuries you sustained to determine the maximum financial award you need to cover your treatment and move forward again.

Whether you’re new to North Carolina or born and raised here, it’s worthwhile to get to know some of the area’s reputable charities and impactful programs that support our state’s most vulnerable populations, including:
As of late March, Johnson & Johnson faced nearly 20,000 lawsuits related to its talc-based body powder. Specifically, plaintiffs allege a link between talcum powder and ovarian cancer.
Plaintiffs also allege that Johnson & Johnson knew of the risks and failed to warn consumers.
Despite unwavering efforts to defend the product in court, on May 19, 2020, Johnson & Johnson announced it would no longer distribute baby powder to the U.S. and Canada.
If you’ve been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and have used baby powder for perineal hygiene, please contact the experienced attorneys at DeMayo Law Offices.
When you get injured, you may face a bottomless stack of medical expenses. You may lose wages if you need to take time off from work to recover. You may have expenses related to damaged property. You may be grappling with pain. These expenses and losses are called damages. In most injury accidents, you will likely incur multiple types of damages. Damages fall under two main subcategories: economic and non-economic.
Non-economic damages are often difficult for insurance adjusters to calculate. While pain might be excruciating to one person, it can be a minor inconvenience to another. It’s entirely subjective.
All economic and non-economic damages listed above are available in insurance claims and lawsuits. However, there’s a third type, called punitive damages. Punitive damages aren’t intended to compensate the victim for their losses. Instead, they punish the at-fault party for their actions and aim to deter similar behavior in the future.
Punitive damages are a rare financial award a jury will only provide if you can prove that the defendant in your case is liable for economic and non-economic damages, and they acted with one of the following:
Most accident victims will begin by filing an insurance claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company to attempt to receive the maximum available settlement. If the insurance adjuster denies the claim or refuses to settle for a fair amount, the accident victim may then move forward with filing a civil lawsuit.
If you want to sue the negligent party for your injuries, you must adhere to a strict deadline, known as a statute of limitations. The statute of limitations for most personal injury cases in North Carolina is three years. What that means is you have three years from the accident date to sue; otherwise, you could lose your right to pursue financial compensation now and in the future.
Most personal injury lawsuits hinge on the legal theory of negligence. Negligence refers to one party's failure to provide another a reasonable degree of care, leading to an injury. To base your case on negligence, you must show the following five elements existed at the time of your injury:
