Our legal team will also request non-economic damages. We collect tangible evidence of the value of these intangible damages, which can include disability, disfigurement, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life.

We Can Clarify North Carolina’s Bus Accident Statutes of Limitations
Like every state, yours has a mandatory filing deadline for civil lawsuits. While required, it can also fluctuate, making it difficult to understand and comply with on your own. In North Carolina:
- The personal injury statute of limitations is generally three years, per G.S. § 1-52
- The wrongful death statute of limitations is generally two years, per G.S. § 1-53
If you do not file your lawsuit on time, the court could refuse to allow you to file it at all. The at-fault party’s representatives could also request its dismissal. Our legal team can interpret which filing deadlines apply to your case and help you avoid either of these costly outcomes.
