Protecting the Rights of North Carolina's Injured and Disabled
In North Carolina at the Law Office of Roberta L. Edwards, P.A., we have dedicated our entire practice to helping the injured and disabled. Because we only practice Workers' Compensation, Social Security Disability and personal injury law, we are able to provide truly experienced and focused representation.
We take a holistic approach to practicing law, striving to help our clients achieve physical, emotional and spiritual well-being in addition to meeting their legal goals.
Our clients come to us hurting. Whether you were injured yourself, or you have lost a loved one because of a wrongful death, the physical and emotional pain you are experiencing can make it difficult to concentrate on the legal struggle at hand. We will give you the tools you need to heal while guiding you through the legal process with compassion.
Our practice focuses completely on helping the injured and disabled get the compensation they need in the types of cases listed below:
- Workers' Compensation — If you have been injured at work, your employer and its insurance company may not be on your side. We will use our best efforts to help you get Workers' Compensation benefits if your claim has been denied. We will also work diligently to ensure that you get the correct amount of weekly work comp benefits for injury or occupational disease and see that you are treated by highly qualified, competent medical professionals.
- Social Security Disability — Struggles with a physical or mental disability are made even more difficult when you have to worry about financial concerns as well. We will evaluate your claim and work to prove to the Social Security Administration that you qualify for disability benefits.
- Personal Injury — If someone else's actions have caused you pain, you deserve to be compensated for medical expenses, lost wages and other damages. Our Edgecombe County personal injury attorneys handle cases involving car and motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, medical malpractice and other serious cases involving head & neck injuries, back injuries, and joint injuries.
- Nursing Home Neglect — We are experienced in handling the very painful and difficult cases involving nursing home neglect and abuse. Our attorneys will investigate your case, identify all parties at fault, and take every necessary legal action to protect your loved ones.
We will take the time to listen to your needs and provide a caring shoulder to lean on. Our attorneys and dedicated staff will work side-by-side with you to develop legal strategies, including mediation, that meet your emotional, spiritual and legal needs.
