“We would like to express our gratitude to you (Hunt Willis) for accepting our case. First of all, when I called this law firm, a very sweet and kind lady answered the telephone and gave me assurance by asking and going over the accident with me, while my husband was in the hospital. I felt assured I was doing the right thing for us. She was so helpful in so many ways. What a professional lady. Secondly, we are much pleased that you have settled this case with the insurance company to receive the proper amount to assist us in so many ways. My husband and I are very happy with you and the firm in handling our case. You made us have confidence in your professional and integrity along with your assistant Ms. Routh, when you both came to see us in our home, in which we saw your compassion and thoughtfulness at that time. We will never forget what you have done for us, and we thank the lord for directing me to contact this firm. I’m glad I did.”

Workers’ Compensation May Be Your Best Option
Most accidents involving hazardous machinery are unforeseeable. Thankfully, workers’ compensation can pay important benefits almost immediately following your accident:
All of your medical expenses arising from your accident; and
Up to two-thirds of your average weekly income prior to your accident
You may be able to pursue a claim against the manufacturer if the machinery was defective or if the accident was the fault of some other third party.
How a North Carolina Hazardous Machinery Accident Lawyer Can Help
To receive your benefits, you need to complete the necessary paperwork and follow the process for filing a workers’ compensation claim.
