North Carolina Accident Attorney
If you have sustained an injury through no fault of your own, you may not be able to work now or for the foreseeable future. You may need long-term medical treatment, including rehabilitation or physical therapy. You may live with significant pain every day and be forced to give up activities that you love. You need an experienced personal injury lawyer to help you get the compensation you need to move forward with your life.
I am Hickory personal injury attorney Lyndon R. Helton. I bring nearly 20 years of experience to clients in western North Carolina who have suffered serious injuries. Before dedicating my practice solely to the needs of injured people, I worked as an insurance defense lawyer. I know the ways insurance companies try to delay, deny or diminish claims so that they can profit at the expense of working people.
An Overview of Our Personal Injury Practice
I focus my personal injury practice on the needs of people who have claims involving:
- Catastrophic injury or wrongful death — I represent people who have suffered serious and catastrophic losses, such as brain, back and spinal cord injuries. I also handle claims involving regional sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). I work with families who have lost loved ones because of the wrongful acts of others.
- Motor vehicle accidents — I protect the rights of people who have been hurt in truck, motorcycle and car accidents, whether as drivers, passengers or pedestrians.
- Property-related injuries — I handle injury claims involving poorly or negligently maintained property, including slip-and-fall cases.
- Dog bites — I fight for the rights of people who have been injured in attacks by other people's dogs.
- Work-related accidents — I can help you pursue compensation for any work-related injury, handling all matters to help you get the benefits you deserve under North Carolina workers' compensation law.
