Injury Lawyers Securing Compensation for Those Injured on North Carolina Roads
We trust our local and state governments to keep roadways safe for drivers. When hazardous conditions are not repaired, the safety of drivers and passengers is put at risk. Defects such as uneven pavement, lack of signs and improperly designed roads cause many accidents across North Carolina every year.
At the Charlotte law firm of DeVore, Acton & Stafford, P.A., we have handled hundreds of highway defect cases. We understand the hard work and diligence it takes to win cases against state governments and the entities responsible for highway safety. We are willing to put in that hard work for our clients because they need compensation and deserve justice.
To arrange a consultation to discuss how we can help you after a serious accident, call 704-377-5242 or contact our Charlotte law office online.

The North Carolina Industrial Commission
If your motor vehicle accident was caused by a defect in a state highway (as opposed to a municipal highway in Charlotte or another town), your case will be resolved by the North Carolina Industrial Commission. There is no jury involved. Rather, the case is presented to the Commission, which makes a decision. It is crucial that your attorney understand how the Commission operates and what is needed to succeed. At DeVore, Acton & Stafford, P.A., we have extensive experience handling cases before the Commission, and we are ready to go to work for you.
