Best law firm out there. Kevin Edwards and his staff treated us like family from start to finish with our case.

We Handle the Cases That Matter Most

When you or someone you love is hurt because of someone else’s negligence, the path forward can feel overwhelming. We’re here to help you navigate it. Our firm handles a wide range of personal injury cases across Charlotte and North Carolina and will ensure your path forward is clear.

Cars are stopped in heavy traffic on a city street, with headlights on and buildings visible in the background. The photo is taken from a low angle near the road, capturing a scene that Edwards Injury Law often addresses for drivers involved in city accidents.

Car Accidents

Car accidents happen in an instant, but the aftermath can stretch on for months or years. Whether you’re dealing with whiplash, a serious spine injury, or a totaled vehicle and a pile of medical bills, we help you understand what your case is actually worth. We fight to make sure you recover every dollar you’re entitled to.

A blue semi-truck hauls a flatbed trailer loaded with covered cargo down a wet rural road, passing autumn trees and a cloudy sky—a scene where safe driving is essential, as emphasized by Edwards Injury Law.

Truck Accidents

Sharing the road with tractor-trailers is a daily reality on North Carolina highways, interstates, and even local roads. While the trucking industry is essential for moving goods across the country, crashes involving large commercial vehicles often result in devastating injuries.

A motorcycle lies on its side in the middle of a busy street, surrounded by cars, suggesting a recent accident—a scene where Edwards Injury Law might be called upon to help those involved navigate the aftermath.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable people on the road, and they’re often unfairly blamed when accidents happen. We know better. If you were riding and got hurt because of another driver’s negligence, we’ll fight to protect your rights and help you recover.

A person with a bag crosses a city street in front of a silver car. Trees and buildings line the background, and a no entry sign is visible on the street—a scene where attentiveness, as emphasized by Edwards Injury Law, is essential for everyone’s safety.

Pedestrian Accidents

Being struck by a vehicle on foot can cause severe, long-lasting injuries. Whether it happened at a crosswalk, in a parking lot, or on a neighborhood street, pedestrians have legal rights. We’ll investigate the circumstances of your accident and build the strongest possible case on your behalf.

Premises Liability

Property owners and businesses have a legal duty to keep their spaces safe. When they fail, whether it’s a slippery floor, a broken stairwell, a poorly lit parking garage, or a negligently maintained pool, people get hurt. If you were injured on someone else’s property, we’ll hold them accountable for the harm their negligence caused.

Two people sit close together, viewed from behind. One person rests their head on the other’s shoulder. They are indoors, with blurred walls and a glass ceiling in the background—a quiet moment that reflects the caring support often emphasized by Edwards Injury Law.

Wrongful Death

Losing a family member because of someone else’s carelessness is devastating. No legal outcome can undo that loss, but accountability matters. We handle wrongful death cases with the sensitivity and determination they deserve, pursuing every avenue of justice for the people you’ve lost.

Uber & Lyft Accidents

Rideshare accidents are more complicated than they appear. Depending on whether the driver was active on the app, multiple insurance policies may apply. And both Uber and Lyft have legal teams working to minimize their exposure. We understand the nuances of rideshare liability and know how to navigate the process to protect your interests.

Negligent Security

If you were assaulted, robbed, or otherwise harmed at a property that failed to provide adequate security, the property owner may be legally responsible. Whether it be at an apartment complex, parking garage, hotel, or commercial property, you deserve to feel safe. We handle these cases with a thorough investigation and a deep understanding of premises liability.

frequently asked questions

What to Expect From the Personal Injury Process

How much does it cost to hire a Charlotte personal injury lawyer?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay attorney fees unless we recover money for you.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in North Carolina?
In most cases, you have three years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Wrongful death claims are generally subject to a two-year deadline.

How much is my case worth?
That depends on the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses, lost income, and how the injury affects your life. We can provide a more accurate estimate after reviewing your case.

Should I accept the insurance company's first offer?
Usually not without speaking to a lawyer first. Initial offers are often much lower than a case is actually worth.

What if I was partially at fault?
Because North Carolina uses contributory negligence, even a small amount of fault can affect your ability to recover compensation. We can evaluate the facts and explain your options.
