Practice Areas

Practice Areas Description

- Personal Injury

Personal Injury relates to the losses, wrongs or damages that are caused by the negligent conduct, act or omission of a responsible party to another person. A personal injury can occur at work, in a car wreck, because of a defective product, an operating error, faulty repair, a medical mistake, a construction accident, a bicycle accident, a pedestrian accident, an ambulance wreck, a boating accident or many other scenarios. Personal Injury Laws protect and/or compensate for monetary, physical or psychological damages. However the damages that are caused must occur due to the negligence or unreasonably unsafe actions or intentional actions of another. Personal Injury Law covers many different areas and situations which include workers compensation law, malpractice, wrongful death, birth injury, bodily injuries, loss of enjoyment of life.

- Auto and Truck Accidents

What do you need to do if you are involved in an auto accident? Exchange information with the either driver(s) involved in the accident, including name, address, drivers license number, license plate number, phone number, insurance information including policy number. If you are involved in an auto accident and are injured, you will want an attorney working for you. The Law Office of D. Hardison Wood would be happy to discuss your situation.

-Workers Compensation

Worker’s Compensation (also known as worker’s comp) laws protect injured workers. The purpose of these laws is to ensure that someone who is hurt while on the job receives appropriate medical care, lost wages relating their on the job injury and, if necessary, retraining and rehabilitation. When workers are killed on the job, members of the workers’ families are usually eligible for benefits.

- Defective Products

Claims for a product's unsafe design or manufacturing, failure to properly warn or instruct, as well as invasion of foreign objects are generally known as product liability. These types of cases can range from issues with lawn mowers to objects found in soda cans and other food products.

- Car Safety

Crashworthiness is the ability of a vehicle to protect its occupants during an impact. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has several crashworthiness guidelines and standards. If you need a North Carolina Crashworthiness Attorney, contact D. Hardison Wood today.

- Child Safety & Injury

Our firm is committed to fighting for the legal rights of children who are injured by dangerous products, poorly manufactured toys, or even malpractice by those charged with their care. We’ve been involved in negligent daycare litigation, as well as negligent supervision of children in our schools. Though representing children is emotionally rewarding, these cases take great care and skill to successfully resolve.

- Wrongful Death

At common law, the right to bring a claim ended when your life ended and thus there was no claim for negligent death. In the US, however, our states have passed wrongful death statutes which afford the families of loved ones who have died due to the negligence of others the ability to seek compensation. Though one can never replace a human life, the wrongful death statutes allow families some measure of compensation for that which is irreplaceable.

- Medical Malpractice

 While we trust doctors, nurses and medical personnel to exercise the greatest caution while with their patient, there are times when mistakes are made. These mistakes can lead to catastrophic injury and occasionally death.

If you or a loved one has been adversely affected by medical negligence, you need to speak with an attorney. While nothing can make up for a serious injury caused by a medical mistake, you may be entitled to receive some compensation.

- Nursing Home Neglect

The elderly depend on others for their day today needs and we believe we owe it to the generation before us to ensure our elderly are not taken advantage of given their needs.

- Brain Injury

A car accident or other serious accident can sometimes take your life down a different path. Sometimes serious accidents cause catastrophic injuries and possibly traumatic brain damage. The attorneys at the Law Office of D. Hardison Wood recognize the difficulties that come with facing such a significant injury. In the aftermath of a serious accident, you need to be focusing on the vital things, such as recovery, rehabilitation, and adjustment. Our attorneys enable you to that while we focus on the personal injury litigation.

 - Speeding Ticket

A speeding offense may cost you fines, increased insurance or loss of your license. In the case of a criminal or more serious traffic offense, it may cost you your job, your family, or even your freedom. If you are convicted for a moving violation, it will go on your driving record, which can be accessed by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and law enforcement agencies. However, only a small percentage of drivers actually challenge traffic and speeding tickets they have received.
