You’re injured, you’re trying to get better, getting treatment, still trying to work and take care of your family. Why would you try to add learning to be a lawyer to all of that?

If you have a speeding or traffic ticket in Orange County, North Carolina, you could probably use some help.

I’ve been doing traffic tickets in Orange County since 2001. My office is in Chapel Hill, the blue heaven part of Orange County, and I’m a local.

The bad news: The problem with having a dope website with tons of salient video is that, if things change, you gotta change your videos.
The good news: My Alamance Co. traffic ticket video has outdated information! You CAN get improper equipment reductions in Alamance County now! If you have the right charge (meaning not too fast) and an OK record (the cleaner, the better) then I have a chance of getting your Alamance County speeding ticket reduced to a non-moving violation (improper equipment) that won’t get you any DMV or Insurance points. That’s about as good and reasonable of an outcome as you can hope for.

Here’s a quick quiz to let you know if you should handle your own auto injury claim. Let me know if it helps:
Can you explain what the law of Contributory Negligence means?
Can you explain how Contributory Negligence is different from Comparitive Negligence.
Do you know if you should give a statement to the insurance company or not, and how that might affect your claim?
Do you know what the phrase Last Clear Chance means?
Do you know the Collateral Source Rule?
Do you know if you can still get lost wages from an auto injury claim if you missed work but used sick leave?
Do you know how to document your lost wages for your claim if you are self-employed?
Are you aware of the recent changes of NC Rules of Evidence 414 and how they affect the valuation of personal injury claims?
Do you know how to value a personal injury claim (Comparing your case to Uncle Fred’s settlement from 1968 and using the interwebs are not valid, by the way)?
Do you know how to file suit and litigate your claim in case negotiations don’t work out?
If you answered “No” to any of these questions, you might be putting your injury claim in jeopardy by handling it on your own.

There was a time not long ago when locals around the area thought of a traffic ticket/speeding ticket in Alamance County (court in Graham, but anywhere around Burlington, Haw River, Elon, etc.) was pretty much terminal. It used to be the case that no defense attorneys could get meaningful reductions for clients, and you pretty much ended up getting what you got.
That’s no longer the case. I’ve been practicing law for 15 years, and for the past 4 years I’ve been going to Alamance County and the climate is much better. In most cases, the ADAs are fairly understanding and with minor charges and a good record you can get outcomes that aren’t nearly as onerous to your auto insurance rates. For a very reasonable rate, I can probably help! Why risk the consequences when you could pay a few bucks and avoid them?
So let me know if you get an Alamance County speeding ticket. I’m ya boy! 919-929-2992.
When you’re in an accident, you can end up with several kinds of injury: physical, emotional, financial, etc. Many of my clients want to make sure that they’re compensated not only for their medical expenses and pain and suffering, but also for their lost income.
That’s a reasonable goal. After all, if the other side’s negligence caused you to miss work and therefore income, that’s foreseeable and they should be on the hook for it.
Of course, nothing is as easy as just asking for it. There are a few issues that I encounter very often in having this discussion, so I thought I’d lay a few out here for public consumption:
You exponentially increase your likelihood of recovering lost income when you can document your lost income. The best form of documentation is a letter from your employer stating BOTH how much time you missed AND how much that time was worth. Remember, get them to write BOTH THINGS!
If you have to use vacation or sick leave, that is a valid loss as well, so even if you technically get paid for missing work, you still lost the leave time, so you should be compensated for its value.
Being self-employed is awesome in many ways. It is generally not awesome when you’re trying to document your lost income. These are very idiosyncratic, so talk to your attorney about how best to work with your situation.
If you’re not paying taxes accurately, consider letting your lost wage claim go.
Know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em. If you missed one 3 hour shift of your $8/hour side job, let’s maybe not spend hours trying to chase down documentation for it. Let it go.
There ya go. I hope this helps you understand lost wage claims a little better. Remember to call me if you have an injury claim. 919-929-2992.
