After a serious accident or injury, you will need someone to help you navigate the legal system to maximize your monetary recovery. Insurance companies make money by collecting premiums, not by voluntarily paying out top- dollar in settlements. That’s why you need an experienced legal team in your corner to force the insurance companies to pay you the compensation you deserve. We get Asheville and Western North Carolina personal injury cases settled quickly, and for maximum value.

We care about our clients. You will have frequent contact with your lawyers and paralegals, and we will answer all your questions. We guarantee a quick response to your calls and emails. We know that the last thing youneed to be worried about while recovering from a serious injury is not being able to contact your attorney—so we’ve taken that additional stress out of the equation. Whether you’ve been hurt in a car accident, motorcycle accident, truck accident, or any other accident that was someone else’s fault, we know what to do to push insurance companies to get your case settled as soon as possible.

The commercial big rig trucking industry is regulated by highly complex state and federal laws that control almost every aspect of operations, from how long a driver can be on the road to how heavy the rig can be. When these laws are broken and an accident occurs, the trucker and trucking company can be held liable. Lawyers who have never handled truck accidents can easily miss the small details that can mean the difference between a great result, and a poor result.

At Melrose Law, our deep understanding of these laws and regulations gives our clients an advantage in these complex cases. We are committed to holding all negligent parties accountable for your injuries or loss and getting you the compensation you need.

We are proud of our reputation as a compassionate law firm that will provide the support our clients need as we help them navigate through the process of handling a wrongful death claim.

Estate disputes often involve complicated legal issues wrapped up in long-standing family disagreements. Questioning the decedent’s capacity to write a Last Will, proving the undue influence of a new romantic partner or neighbor who convinces the testator to change their will to disinherit their children, confusing or conflicting language in a Last Will, and fraud committed by the administrator of an Estate are some of the many issues we can handle with respect to estate litigation.

All these disputes can involve substantial sums of money, and you need an experienced attorney at your side to protect your interests throughout the probate process. The probate litigation attorneys at Melrose Law can challenge the Last Will or defend your interests if someone else challenges the will.

Lawyers make mistakes like every other professional, and they can be held responsible for harm they cause their clients. It can be a missed deadline, conflict of interest, failing to conduct necessary legal research, or inadequate performance of his or her duties. 

Attorneys are fiduciaries and owe their clients a duty to look out for the client’s interests above all others. When a lawyer is negligent, that malpractice can cause the client catastrophic financial loss.
