North Carolina Accident Lawyers

Civil Justice Advocates

As attorneys at the North Carolina personal injury firm of Comerford & Britt, we represent clients dealing with the tragic consequences of death or catastrophic, disabling injury caused by the negligence, recklessness, or illegal acts of others. We are committed to providing representation designed to obtain a just verdict, financial settlement or recovery for our clients.

Precedent-Setting Cases

Personal injury and wrongful death laws are designed not only to compensate victims for their losses, but also to deter similar accidents in the future. Our firm's representative cases include those that have resulted in changes in corporate procedures, have successfully demonstrated the disastrous consequences of corporate negligence in product design and manufacture, and have recovered damages from the government because of failures of those employed with governmental agencies, such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

We have the experience, skill, and resources for complex litigation

Comerford & Britt, LLP, is one of the State’s premier trial practice law firms giving powerless victims a voice. The firm’s attorneys stand up against large insurance companies, hospitals, government agencies and irresponsible and uncaring corporations that threaten our safety. The attorneys with Comerford & Britt, LLP are recognized as thorough, highly-skilled, professional and effective advocates and trial lawyers and provide their clients the tools to call for accountability from the rich, powerful and privileged. Comerford & Britt is one of the region's most powerful and well-equipped law firms.  The firm concentrates in civil trial work, representing people and their families in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases arising from aircraft crashes and disasters, serious motor vehicle collisions, medical negligence, inadequate security, construction accidents and defective products. The firm is frequently associated by other attorneys, both from within and outside North Carolina.

Our firm has the resources to provide powerful representation and fully litigate complex cases. One of our North Carolina accident lawyers represented the family of the pilot of the space shuttle Challenger. We also filed a lawsuit on behalf of the victim of a Forsyth County motor vehicle accident resulting from a police chase. Some cases are multi-district actions involving trials in Federal Court, and others are local matters, but all require extensive legal experience and skill to successfully recover damages for families of the victims. 

In addition to the outstanding record of success of our attorneys, the firm offers our clients a unique set of resources, including our own aircraft, piloting expertise, and the ability to assist our clients on demand. The ability to travel quickly and flexibly is an enormous asset for our clients and gives us an edge. Senior partner Tom Comerford is an experienced commercial and instrument-rated pilot who is well versed in this intricate area of law. He pilots his own twin-engine airplane, a pressurized Twin Commander Prop Jet, and employs a paralegal who is a licensed airline transport-rated pilot. The firm also has state of the art conference facilities for depositions, mediation, and other meetings. We have a video conference center that enables us to meet face to face over long distances. We have facilities for focus groups and jury research. We have state of the art computer and video projection equipment enabling, for example, the use of multiple power point presentations on a 100 inch diagonal screen, and other large high-definition flat screen television monitors. If you are in need of legal representation, turn to Comerford & Britt, LLP.

Our practice is limited to select cases

By accepting a limited number and type of catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, we are more able to better represent the interests of clients in those select areas of focus. Not every case will result in a settlement or judgment for the plaintiff. No attorney fees are charged unless there is a successful recovery.

If you would like us to evaluate your claim, contact our Winston-Salem office and make arrangements for a consultation.
