The North Carolina General Assembly recently passed legislation that will limit, if not entirely 
eliminate Coronavirus lawsuits in North Carolina alleging negligence and malpractice.
The stated purpose of the law is to “limit civil liability.”
Health care providers, emergency response businesses, and other essential business operations are granted immunity from negligence claims relating to the transmission of the Coronavirus.
The North Carolina workers’ compensation laws allow, in certain circumstances, compensation for transmitted diseases and fatalities.
While many if not most people think of work comp as relating to a slip-and-fall or some other traumatic physical injury, there are some professions where there are unique susceptibilities to transmittable diseases.
Dash Cameras are no longer limited to police officers or NC DMV enforcement. 
Video evidence is becoming increasingly common in personal injury trials, especially when it comes to resolving legal issues involving who is responsible for an accident.
Car Accident lawyers appreciate dash cams in a state where contributory negligence is a regular defense – Kevin Jones
As 2019 comes to a close we all tend to take stock, making New Year’s Resolutions. What was good 
this year? What could be better next year? What do I need out of my life that is causing problems?
A common thread is an overwhelming desire to be less stressed and overwhelmed. Starting 2020 with fewer hassles and worries makes sense.
If you’ve been trying to deal with an insurance adjuster in 2019, one of your New Year’s Resolutions may include letting go and asking an accident lawyer for help – Kevin Jones, Personal Injury Attorney
The holiday season is upon us. With that comes parties, family get-togethers, office events. . .and drunk driving.
It may come as a surprise to some that the Wednesday before Thanksgiving has surpassed New Year’s as the “Biggest Drinking Day in the US.”
Law enforcement hasn’t missed the fact that #BlackOutWednesday is popular with the 21 to 34-year-old set.
There is a reason why driving while impaired is aggressively enforced. “Accidents” are not limited to the general public. WBTV Charlotte reports a police car struck by drunk driver, resulting in 
serious injuries to the officer.
The fact-patterns associated with accidents and DWI charges reveal it’s really not an accident.
No one ‘accidentally’ gets behind the wheel after drinking too much and drives. It’s not an accident at all. A decision was made – Kevin Jones, Injury Lawyer
Recovery from a bad wreck can involve more than just ER visits, X-rays, doctors, and rehab. If you’ve been suffering through the process, wondering about your lost wages and bills, often the LAST thing you want to think about is litigation. Are lawsuits required?
Not necessarily.
In fact, likely more-often-than-not, bringing a claim for damages against the person who caused the wreck ends prior to the actual filing of formal legal “pleadings.”
Retaining an attorney or law firm for legal representation may be an important first step in settling a claim for damages. Establishing the attorney-client relationship may seem a bit overwhelming to start. Knowing what to expect at the first office visit is a good place to start.
Of course, that assumes an office visit works for you. Not everyone is well enough to meet with a lawyer at their office.
That’s one reason we will come to you.
