You didn’t ask for this. But now you’re facing medical bills, lost wages, and pain that won’t go away.
When someone else’s carelessness turns your life upside down, you need more than just a lawyer—you need someone who will stand up to insurance companies trying to pay you as little as possible. At DeMent Askew Johnson & Marshall, our personal injury attorneys bring decades of experience helping accident victims throughout Raleigh and across North Carolina get the money they deserve.
We know you’re going through one of the hardest times in your life. You’re hurt, you’re worried about bills, and you just want your life back. Let us handle the legal battle while you focus on healing.
Don’t face the insurance companies alone. They have teams of lawyers protecting their money—you need someone protecting yours.
After an accident, insurance companies often swoop in with quick, lowball settlement offers hoping you’ll sign away your rights before you know the full extent of your injuries. They’re not looking out for you—they’re trying to save themselves money.
Here’s how our team fights back:
While you recover, we take on the insurance adjusters, paperwork, deadlines, and legal hurdles. Our job is getting you every dollar you deserve.
Our North Carolina personal injury lawyers have won millions for clients injured in all types of accidents:
Car crashes happen in a split second but can change your life forever. From fender benders to high-speed collisions, we know how to prove fault, document your injuries, and fight for maximum compensation. North Carolina’s strict contributory negligence rule means you need a lawyer who can prove the other driver was 100% at fault.
When 80,000-pound commercial trucks cause accidents, the injuries are often catastrophic. These cases involve federal regulations, multiple insurance policies, and corporate legal teams. We know how to cut through the complexity to hold trucking companies accountable.
Bikers face both serious injuries and unfair bias after accidents. Insurance companies often try to blame motorcyclists regardless of the facts. Our attorneys fight back against anti-motorcycle prejudice while getting riders the medical care and compensation they need for devastating injuries.
Property owners must keep their premises safe for visitors. When they don’t—and you get hurt as a result—we help hold them responsible for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
When doctors, nurses, or hospitals make preventable mistakes, the consequences can be devastating. From surgical errors to misdiagnoses, we help patients hurt by medical negligence get compensation for additional treatment, lost earnings, and more.
Losing a loved one because of someone else’s carelessness is devastating. While no amount of money can replace your loss, a wrongful death claim can provide financial security and a measure of justice.
We handle these sensitive cases with both compassion for your family and aggressive advocacy against those responsible.
To win your personal injury case in North Carolina, we need to prove four key things:
North Carolina has one of the strictest fault rules in the country. Under “contributory negligence,” if you were even 1% at fault for your accident, you might be completely barred from recovery. This makes having an experienced lawyer absolutely critical—we know how to fight back against insurance companies who try to shift blame to you.
There are exceptions to this harsh rule, such as:
We know these rules inside and out and use them to protect your right to compensation.
Every case is different, but we fight to get you money for:
Many victims need surgeries to repair damaged tissues, bones, or organs, followed by months of physical therapy to regain function. The cost of medications adds up, too, especially pain management prescriptions.
An injury doesn’t just hurt your body—it hurts your wallet when you can’t work. You might miss paychecks for days, weeks, or even months while you recover, creating immediate financial stress for your family. Many serious injuries lead to permanent limitations that reduce your ability to earn what you did before.
The physical pain from accident injuries can be excruciating and may continue long after your visible wounds heal. Beyond physical pain, many accident victims suffer serious emotional distress, including anxiety, depression, and even PTSD from the trauma.
After an accident, you’ll need to repair or replace your damaged vehicle, which can leave you without transportation for weeks. If your car is totaled, the insurance company rarely offers enough to buy an equivalent replacement.
Insurance companies often try to settle for just your current medical bills, but that’s rarely enough. We calculate ALL your damages—including future costs—to make sure you’re not left paying out of pocket for someone else’s mistake.

In most cases, you have three years from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that can make this deadline shorter:
Missing these deadlines means losing your right to compensation forever. Don’t wait to get legal help.
Simple cases might settle in a few months, while complex cases can take a year or longer, especially if they go to trial. We move as quickly as possible while still fighting for maximum compensation. Quick settlements are often low settlements—we take the time needed to build the strongest case.
No. Insurance adjusters are trained to get you to say things that hurt your case. They may sound friendly, but their job is to pay you as little as possible. Let us handle ALL communication with insurance companies to protect your rights.
