No one ever wants to deal with insurance. It is a complicated and often convoluted process even to get to a live representative from their automated menus. It involves long wait periods where you're stuck on hold just hoping that someone will answer that doesn't have a robotic voice. Once you get through to a real person, it can seem like the menus were easier to deal with. Trying to get information is frequently like pulling teeth, and you tend to get conflicting information between what the representatives tell you and what actually happens later. When you're trying to deal with this on top of an injury, it can be enough to make you want to deal with it yourself and simply avoid them altogether.

Naturally if you were injured due to someone else's negligence, you need to speak to your insurance company one way or another. Sometimes it's so that you can figure out what kind of coverage you have, other times it's to dispute claims, and sometimes it's to try and work out a payment plan due to the high costs that come with sudden injuries. Whatever your reason for speaking to your company is, the fact remains that it is exhausting and can be difficult to get through to someone who can actually help when what you should be doing is recovering.

When you are injured, there is a lot that feels like it's out of your control. It can be scary and frustrating to recover from an injury in the first place, but if you add a battle with your insurance company into the mix, it is often seemingly impossible to deal with the constant stress. This is why it is always a good idea to hire someone to help you with these problems. You need someone who knows how to help you get the compensation you deserve despite insurance companies' arguments to the contrary. Someone like Wayne Hardee.

When you are somewhere that clearly looks dangerous, you're naturally going to be more careful. It's simply in our nature to walk a little more timidly across the street than it would be across your own yard. However, there are some places that you won't pay much attention to while you're walking because you expect to be safe. If you are walking on the sidewalk outside a store, for example, you can reasonably expect to not end up falling over due to untreated ice. It isn't unreasonable for you to expect it to have been salted, but sometimes a patch of ice just hits you when you least expect it to.

When you slip on ice, you often experience a range of emotions. Normally, these include embarrassment and frustration. Both are understandable responses to losing your footing, especially in such a fashion. It is even more understandable if you had expected the property to be taken care of correctly. Things like wet floor signs are often put out if there is a spill, but when there's ice outside there isn't much warning that can be done. This often means that a fall is not only possible, but likely.

While slipping and falling on flat ground may hurt your pride, falling down the steps can hurt more than just that. Ice that forms at the top of a step is a huge liability, even if it's only a single step like on a sidewalk. The property owner and manager has a duty to make sure that their location is as safe as they can feasibly make it for you and anyone else there. While they can't protect you from everything, issues like ice and other slippery substances need to be either dealt with or marked to keep you safe and healthy.

If you were injured on someone else's property because you fell on some untreated ice in the winter, give Wayne Hardee a call. He has decades of experience on cases such as these and can certainly help you get the compensation you deserve. Cases such as premises liability are difficult to argue, so it's always a big help to have someone on your side who knows what they're doing. If you suffered from a fall and needed medical care, you deserve compensation. Make sure that Wayne Hardee is the lawyer you call for legal assistance today!

Although it shouldn't seem like finding a needle in a haystack, it can feel nearly impossible to find someone who will work with you and treat you fairly. This is true in any aspect of life, but it is especially true when you want anything to do in the legal world. There is an unfortunate and harmful stereotype that lawyers have no heart and only care about money, but this couldn't be further from the truth. Most lawyers choose their profession because they truly want to help people through the justice system. You'll always find people who give their jobs a bad name in any profession, but it can seem like people avoid lawyers like the plague. This is often damaging and hurtful to those who have dedicated their lives to making sure that others get the compensation that they deserve.

There are few things in this world that hurt more than a life being tragically lost in a car accident. Regardless of the circumstances, it is always a painful experience to have someone leave before their time. Most people know at least one person who was killed in a crash, and even if they weren't a close friend or relation, their death is still keenly felt. When these types of death occur, there is often a lot of confusion, anger, and disbelief that accompanies it. This is perfectly normal with any death, especially one that happened suddenly.

According to the National Safety Council, an estimated 38,800 people were killed in car accidents just last year. This number is sobering, and yet it shows us a two percent decrease from the previous year. This only goes to show just how unfortunately common accidents really are. It can not be stated enough just how much these accidents play a role in everyone's lives. The life of someone being taken in such a way is a difficult thing to come to terms with, and is even harder to try and compensate.

There is no feasible way to put a monetary value on any human life. Unfortunately, however, there are expenses that come with any death, including sudden ones. Hospital bills, funeral expenses, and any other outstanding debts they may have had can quickly add up, which can severely impact the grieving process. No one should have to run numbers and worry about how to pay for things while they are trying to come to term with the fact that their loved one is was suddenly killed. That is where Wayne Hardee wants to help.

While there is no replacing the life that was so suddenly taken away from you and everyone else who loved them, and there is definitely no monetary amount that can make their death any easier to deal with, the fact is that compensation after a wrongful death can do undeniable good. Even if you are in a position where you can pay for any end-of-life expenses, the compensation can be used for any number of things that you may need help with both immediately and in the future. If you have lost a loved one in a car crash, give Wayne Hardee a call today. He can help you get the compensation you deserve with compassion and care so you never have to feel alone.

There aren't many things that can relax you like getting out on the water and having a calm day on a boat. Having the ability to leave all of your worries on the shore and go for a dip or catch some sun after the cold of the winter can do wonders for your body and mind. It is often a family ritual to take the boat out on pleasant weekends and certain holidays during the summer so that you can spend time together. Unfortunately, not every trip out sees everyone come back in the same state they left.

One of the most important things to remember is that boats have motors. This means that they are, by definition, a motor vehicle. While most people act responsibly while on the water, just the same as on land, you will always have some people who don't want to follow the rules. Regardless of whether they have been drinking and are now operating a boat, or if they are just ignoring the common courtesy rules that are in place on the water, there is a very good chance that it will result in damage. Sometimes, that damage isn't only to another boat, but to the people on them also.

Boat accidents are difficult cases to litigate simply because they aren't as common as car accidents. Most people don't realize that boats can be just as dangerous as any other vehicle with a motor. While your standard boating accidents may not result in severe injuries, they will often see a large amount of damage done to your property. When these accidents do cause physical harm, it is often devastating. All of these factors mean that you need to have a good lawyer on your side to get you through this difficult and confusing time.

Wayne Hardee is an exceedingly experienced lawyer when it comes to boating accidents. He has decades worth of cases helping people argue their situation and getting them the compensation they deserve. While a boating accident can seem like the end of the fight, Wayne Hardee can help you continue on with care and compassion.

It can be difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but with Wayne's dedication and experience on your side, you can rest assured that you're in good hands!

Getting hit by a car under any circumstance, I think we can all agree, is not the ideal situation. While there may be some better times or places or ways to get hit, I think it's pretty safe to say that it's something you generally want to avoid at all costs. After all, there's no way to be sure that you will get away with minimal injuries even under the best of conditions. The fact of the matter stands that if you are in an accident there are lots of things that are going to be going on all at once, and you could use someone to help you figure it all out.

The first thing you want to do if you were in an accident is get checked out by a doctor. This most likely means a hospital trip. Even if you don't feel like you're in pain, a visit should always be your first step. This can help show anything that you may not be aware of in the event of adrenaline or shock, or it can give you a clean bill of health. The other reason you want to go is to make sure you have a medical record for your accident. This will help your case if you choose to file a claim, even if you don't develop symptoms immediately. Some injuries can take a while to show, so it's better to go right away and make sure that the issue is documented as soon as possible.

The other thing that you need to do if you were in a car accident is look around for a good lawyer. Arguing with insurance companies can be difficult and exhausting, but if you need to argue fault it is a whole different ball game. Finding someone who can represent you is a very important step in getting the compensation that you deserve, so don't leave it up to just anyone.

If you're looking for someone to represent you after a car accident in North Carolina, look no further. Wayne Hardee has been working to get people the compensation they deserve for decades and can bring all of that experience to your case.

One of the worst things that anyone can deal with is losing a loved one. It's difficult enough when the person passes after a long illness or due to old age, but when it's a sudden loss, it is often much worse. With no time to prepare for the death, there are understandably strong feelings of confusion and anger in addition to sorrow. It can be difficult to figure out how to go forward with certain things when you're also dealing with the sudden grief of unexpectedly losing someone. Trying to care for your family, deal with final arrangements and expenses, and also get through the loss yourself is something we would never wish on anyone.

When someone dies as a result of a work accident or other sudden traumatic accident, there are a lot of questions that need to be answered. In addition to ones like “How did this happen”, the question of finances needs to be brought up. Medical expenses that may have been incurred immediately after the accident can be nearly as devastating as the loss itself. Funerals are also extremely expensive, and that needs to be part of the discussion as well. Even a simple cremation costs around $3,000 in North Carolina, while the average burial is closer to $8,000. These numbers are enough to make anyone feel like their drowning, even without dealing with the loss that caused them.

Of course, we never want to put a price tag on your loss. There's no amount of money that can ease the pain, and that isn't what a wrongful death claim is meant to do. What they are meant to do is help you financially deal with the loss. Things like bills and final expenses can be difficult to deal with under the best of circumstances, but if you just lost a working member of your household, it is obviously going to be worse. A wrongful death claim aims to help that.

If you are currently dealing with the loss of a loved one due to the negligence of another, give Wayne Hardee a call. It's never easy to deal with a sudden death, but there are some things that we can do to help you. Wayne has decades of experience with these sorts of cases and won't rest until you get the compensation you deserve for your loved one. You need a compassionate and timely lawyer, so give us a call today. It will make all the difference in your case.
