3. Can I speak to a lawyer the same day?

Yes — when you contact Kellum Law Firm, we aim to connect you with an attorney as soon as possible. Many clients speak to a lawyer on the same day they reach out, especially in urgent cases. The best way to reach us quickly is to call the number shown below, anytime, day or night.

4. How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Charlotte?

In North Carolina, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury. However, there are exceptions depending on the case type. It’s always best to speak with a lawyer quickly to preserve your rights.

5. Do you handle cases involving injuries on Charlotte public transportation?

Yes — if you’ve been injured on a CATS bus, light rail, or other public transit in Charlotte, our attorneys can help you pursue compensation. Claims involving government or municipal entities often have special procedures and tighter deadlines, so don’t delay.

Absolutely. While our Charlotte office serves the local community, we represent clients all over North Carolina. Whether your accident occurred in Concord, Gastonia, or elsewhere in the region, we’re ready to assist.

7. What if I’m partially at fault for the accident?

North Carolina follows a strict contributory negligence rule, which can bar recovery if you’re found even 1% at fault. It’s important to have a skilled legal team evaluate your case — don’t assume you’re out of options until you speak with us.
Bring any medical records, accident reports, insurance correspondence, photos of the incident, or anything else related to your case. Don’t worry if you don’t have everything — we’ll guide you through what’s needed.

8. Do you charge for initial consultations?

No. All consultations are 100% free. We only get paid if we win your case. There’s no risk to speak with one of our Charlotte attorneys about your situation.
