Seek Justice After A Personal Injury

Every physical injury has the potential to do life-changing harm. A seemingly minor decision by a motorist, employer, co-worker or doctor can be the difference between a regular day and a life-altering accident causing a serious injury to someone. A severe injury doesn’t only affect your physical health but also limit your mobility, restrict your ability to perform the duties of your job and create emotional stress that can harm your personal relationships.

Because the damage done by a personal injury can be so serious, it is crucial to work with an experienced lawyer who can help you mount a serious response. The legal system cannot restore your health, but it does provide tools that will help you and your attorney hold accountable any party whose negligence contributed to your injury.

At Richard Watson Attorney, PLLC, I care deeply about the outcome in each of my clients’ cases. I carefully select the cases I take, so that each of my clients receives the full attention they deserve. After listening to the details of your situation, I will help you understand your options and work with you to design a legal strategy based on your specific needs.

I Have The Legal Knowledge And Work Ethic
To Help You Obtain Justice

Over four decades of practicing law in North Carolina, I have earned a reputation for success in litigation and in out-of-court settlements. I make a point of thoroughly preparing for every hearing, being ahead of the defense and overwhelming them with evidence supporting your personal injury claim. My opponents have a strong incentive to settle their cases before trial, because they know I will provide a tough battle in court.

No matter what caused the severe injury that has affected your life — a car accident, a slip-and-fall incident, medical malpractice or another catastrophic personal injury — I can help you mount a strong legal response. In every case, my goal is to maximize the financial compensation you receive for your injury, because, while no amount of money can ever compensate for your health, financial compensation can help you deal with the consequences of impairments to your health.

 An injury does not just harm your physical health — it can also affect your psychological well-being, your ability to earn a living, your financial health, and your overall quality of life. That is why it is so important to take legal action if you have suffered a personal injury caused by someone else's negligence. Everyone makes mistakes, but, when a mistake results in physical harm, you have every right to seek financial compensation that can be used to defray the many costs of a personal injury, from medical bills to lost wages.

At Richard Watson Attorney, PLLC, I am committed to helping you navigate North Carolina's legal system in order to obtain the full compensation to which you are entitled. At every step in the process, I will help you understand your options so that you can make informed decisions with confidence. I will be your advocate both in the courtroom and in our consultations, and I will stand up for your interests from the start of your case until its resolution.
