Drunk Driving Accidents in Charlotte NC

The likelihood of accidents involving alcohol, permanent injuries, and wrongful death claims associated with drunk driving in Charlotte continues to increase at a disturbing rate. The numbers don’t lie.

There is an inverse relationship between drunken driving arrests and “accidents.” Put simply, alcohol-related fatalities (wrecks) increase as DWI arrests decrease.

DWI enforcement in Mecklenburg County has dropped substantially in recent years. Arrests for drunk driving have declined by nearly 2/3rds, with 4,101 arrests in 2003 and only 1,415 Mecklenburg DWI arrests in 2018.

Why Did The Insurance Company Deny My Claim?

by Carolina Attorneys

Part I: NC Insurance Companies Win by making sure You Lose

As an attorney who helps people with accident cases, it’s frankly hard not to sound a bit snarky when talking about the insurance laws in North Carolina. The reason insurance adjustors deny valid claims is simple: It pays to do so.

Mind you, in many instances that is completely legal, ethical, and standard procedure. That doesn’t make it right or equitable.
