Personal Injury Services in North Carolina

Personal injury means you were hurt because someone else made a mistake. Maybe a driver wasn’t paying attention. Maybe a store didn’t fix a broken floor. Or maybe you slipped in a parking lot with no warning signs.

Schehr Law handles all types of personal injury cases, including:

• Car accidents

• Truck accidents

• Motorcycle accidents

• Bicycle and pedestrian accidents

• Slip and fall injuries

• Dog bites and animal attacks

• Wrongful death

• Injuries at work (workers' comp)

Their job is to make sure you don’t get pushed around by insurance companies—and that you get the medical care and money you need to move forward.

Car Accident Claims in Charlotte

Getting into a car accident is scary. Even small crashes can cause serious injuries, especially to your neck, back, or head. Medical bills start piling up. You might have to miss work. And dealing with insurance companies? That part can be overwhelming.

Schehr Law helps people who’ve been in car accidents by:

• Collecting police reports and crash photos

• Talking to insurance companies

• Scheduling medical care

• Making sure you get paid for missed work

• Fighting for fair settlements

If the insurance company tries to offer a lowball deal, Schehr Law is ready to fight back. They’ll work to get you every dollar you’re owed.

Motorcycle Accident Representation

Motorcycle riders face higher risks on the road. Even if you’re being careful, one distracted driver can cause a crash that changes everything. These accidents often lead to broken bones, head injuries, or road rash.

The attorneys at Schehr Law know how to build strong motorcycle accident cases. They talk to witnesses, collect evidence, and work with medical experts to prove how serious your injuries are. They also know how to protect riders from being unfairly blamed.

They believe in standing up for the rights of bikers—because being on two wheels shouldn’t mean getting less respect.

Truck Accidents and Commercial Vehicle Crashes

Big trucks like 18-wheelers or delivery vehicles are heavy and hard to stop. When they cause an accident, the damage can be massive. Victims often deal with long hospital stays, expensive surgeries, and permanent injuries.

Truck accident cases are more complicated than regular car crashes. You’re not just dealing with the driver—you’re also dealing with the trucking company, their insurance, and even their maintenance team.

Schehr Law has the experience to handle:

• Truck driver fatigue cases

• Improper loading accidents

• Brake failure or bad maintenance claims

• Commercial insurance disputes

They know the rules trucking companies must follow, and they’ll make sure no detail gets overlooked.

Slip and Fall Injuries and Unsafe Property Claims

If you slip and fall in a public place like a store or apartment complex, and it wasn’t your fault, you may have a claim. These kinds of injuries can lead to lasting pain and big medical bills.

Schehr Law helps with premises liability cases, which include:

• Wet or slippery floors

• Broken steps or railings

• Loose carpeting

• Poor lighting

• Icy sidewalks

Property owners are supposed to keep their spaces safe. If they don’t—and someone gets hurt—they can be held responsible. Schehr Law makes sure that happens.

Dog Bite and Animal Attack Cases

Not all dogs are friendly. And when a dog bites, it can cause serious harm—especially to kids. You might need stitches, surgery, or even cosmetic procedures down the line.

In North Carolina, dog owners can be held responsible if their pet hurts someone. Schehr Law helps dog bite victims by:

• Reporting the bite to authorities

• Finding out if the dog had a history of aggression

• Gathering medical records

• Making claims against homeowners’ insurance

They work to get full compensation for medical care, emotional trauma, and any scarring or permanent damage.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Accident Help

People walking or biking have no protection in a crash. That means injuries are usually severe. Drivers have a responsibility to watch for pedestrians in crosswalks and give cyclists space—but not all of them do.

Schehr Law helps pedestrians and cyclists who’ve been hit by cars, motorcycles, or trucks. They take these cases seriously and work hard to prove the driver was at fault.

If you’ve been hit, don’t wait. You may be able to recover money for your injuries, lost wages, and more.

Wrongful Death Claims and Supporting Grieving Families

Losing someone suddenly is one of the hardest things you can go through—especially if it was preventable. Wrongful death claims are about holding the at-fault person or company accountable and helping the family recover financially.

Schehr Law helps families with:

• Funeral and burial costs

• Medical bills

• Loss of income from the loved one

• Pain and suffering

• Loss of companionship

These cases are handled with care and compassion. The firm gives families space to grieve, while they handle the paperwork and legal details.

Workers’ Compensation for On-the-Job Injuries

Getting injured at work means you may be eligible for workers’ compensation. But sometimes, claims are denied or delayed. Employers and insurance companies might say your injury isn’t serious, or that it didn’t happen at work.

Schehr Law helps workers who:

• Got hurt on the job

• Were denied benefits

• Can’t return to work

• Need help with medical treatment or disability pay

They’ve helped construction workers, warehouse employees, office staff, and many others. They’ll make sure your claim is filed correctly and fight to get you the support you deserve.

Help With Medical Bills and Treatment

One reason people wait to call a lawyer is because they’re worried about medical costs. But Schehr Law can help you get the treatment you need—even if you don’t have insurance.

They work with doctors, physical therapists, chiropractors, and specialists who treat injury patients on a “lien” basis. That means the provider gets paid from your settlement—so you don’t pay anything upfront.

You’ll get care without going into debt. And that can make a huge difference during your recovery.

Working With Insurance Companies

Insurance companies have teams of adjusters and lawyers working to save money. Their goal is to pay as little as possible—even when the other person was clearly at fault.

Schehr Law handles all communication with the insurance company so you don’t have to. They’ll:

• File your claim

• Review the policy

• Negotiate your settlement

• Handle paperwork and deadlines

If the insurer refuses to be fair, Schehr Law is ready to take the case to court.

What Makes Schehr Law Different

They also keep things simple. No confusing legal terms. No rushing through meetings. Just calm, honest guidance every step of the way.

You won’t have to guess what’s going on in your case. They’ll keep you updated and make sure you always know what’s coming next.

A Real Client Story

"After my accident, I didn’t know what to do. My neck was hurt, my car was totaled, and I was missing work. A friend told me to call Schehr Law, and I’m so glad I did. Joe Schehr talked to me himself. He explained everything and didn’t make me feel dumb for asking questions. He got me a fair settlement, and I didn’t have to deal with the insurance people at all. I’d recommend him to anyone who’s been in a wreck."– Jasmine P., Charlotte, NC
