Why Choose Nagle Associates

Most law firms handle various legal matters. Our firm only handles personal injury claims arising from serious motor vehicle collisions. We have mastered the laws in this arena and we stand ready to protect your rights, to prove fault, and to collect maximum tax-free payment for your injury claims.

We only accept cases involving real injuries arising from serious accidents. Our focus on high-damage cases allows us to offer a lower legal fee on settlements and trial verdicts. Almost ALL other injury lawyers charge 1/3 of the personal injury settlement. If we accept your case, our fee is 1/4 of settlement. With Nagle & Associates, P.A.’s fairer fee, you keep 75% of every settlement dollar which is much more than the 66% share that most firms allow.

On top of their 1/3 legal fee, most personal injury firms also charge case administration costs including postage, copy costs, administrative fees, and fees to outside vendors to gather medical bills and records. Our lower 1/4 fee INCLUDES all case administration costs.

Attorneys in North Carolina do not fund litigation. Most cases settle, which leaves outside case costs near zero. If a trial occurs, expenses like the filing fee, court reporting fees, and expert witness fees are paid by the crash victim. Some firms ask for filing fees and other expenses to be paid up-front by the client. We advance all fees necessary to prepare a winning case for trial. While these costs do come from the client’s portion of the trial verdict, we advance the money interest free to cover all necessary investment in your successful fight for fair compensation.

Our legal fee in cases requiring court involvement is also lower than the share charged by other personal injury lawyers. If the insurance company refuses to pay you fairly, we file suit against all responsible parties and bring your case through trial. Most firms charge 40-44% of your injury claim proceeds if suit must be filed. Our fee in litigation is 1/3, leaving a much larger share of your personal injury payment in your hands at the end of your case.

If you decide to hire our law firm, your signature is all we need. We charge no up-front fees or costs. Also, if a visit to one of our seven offices is currently inconvenient, we have investigators on staff who will visit you at your home, workplace, or wherever you choose to get your case started. There is no cost for this home visit. If you prefer, we can also begin your case by exchanged mail.

We have seven officers across North Carolina, and likely one very close to you. However, if you live in a remote area or an office visit is inconvenient, we charge nothing to meet with you at your home. Almost everything can be accomplished by phone or mail. Also, most cases settle and result in payment with no court involvement, and this process can be handled without leaving your home. If your case has to be tried before a jury, we do this in your home county.

A highly experienced personal injury paralegal will be assigned to manage your case, and to communicate with you and your lawyer during your recovery and throughout the injury claim process.

Our firm is constantly working on cases involving severe and catastrophic injuries. If your injuries involve lacerations, sutures, fractures, surgery, brain injury, bone and joint injury, internal injury or other lasting injuries, you should ONLY consider law firms that frequently handle these types of cases. We fully understand complex medical issues and we have worked with the best surgeons and medical specialists in North Carolina and throughout the country. You only have one opportunity to collect money for past and future medical costs and pain and suffering. We have collected over $500 million for North Carolina crash victims, including a high number of multi-million dollar settlements. Our in-depth medical experience equips us to tell your story, to show how your injuries impact health and quality of life, and to collect maximum payment on all injury claims.

Insurance companies know who we are! Our reputation for fighting disputed cases in Court motivates insurance companies to extend the highest settlement offers in every case. If they don’t pay our clients fairly, we file suit and bring them to Court. When this happens, the insurance company now has to pay you PLUS they also have to hire and pay a lawyer to defend the at fault driver PLUS they must pay you pre-judgment interest on top of your trial winnings PLUS the judge sometimes makes them pay your litigation costs after the trial. Our involvement validates your threat of suit, and motivates insurance companies to pay you top-dollar to settle your injury case privately, without Court involvement.

We do not advertise on television, radio or billboards. Frankly, some jurors don’t like the unprofessional tone of these advertisements. With Nagle & Associates, there is no risk that any of your 12 jurors will associate your case with a high-volume advertising law firm.

Crash victims can collect money for past and future medical-care costs, for past and future lost wages and lost earning ability, and additional cash payment for past and future pain and suffering. We assemble medical & financial evidence following the complex guidelines of NC damage laws to ensure that we collect every penny you are entitled to.

Your fee is pure contingency. If we are unable to collect money from the other side, we charge NO legal fees whatsoever.

Lawyers collect more for injury claims in almost every case. Typically, good lawyers increase settlement offers enough to cover their 1/3 fee and STILL LEAVE THE CLIENT WITH MORE NET MONEY THAN THEY COULD COLLECT HANDLING THEIR CLAIMS DIRECTLY. We seek to vastly increase the money you receive after legal fees are paid, and our 1/4 fee further increases your net share of the tax-free injury settlement.

Mr. Nagle’s insurance industry experience enables him to locate multiple insurance policies and multiple layers of coverage to increase available money sources to fund all injury claims. We look for umbrella policies, excess liability policies, business liability policies for commercial vehicles, underinsured motorist coverage on all victim household policies, and other payment sources for every client. We leave no stone unturned as we work to collect maximum payment in every case.

Under North Carolina law, if a crash victim contributes slightly to causing her own accident/injuries, she has NO right to payment for car damage or injury claims. If the insurance company can place just 1% of fault with you, they owe you nothing! Insurance companies start by investigating the crash looking ONLY for reasons to deny valid claims. Hire us immediately and we will investigate the crash FOR YOU, gather and preserve all evidence to prove your innocence, and to prove fault against all at-fault drivers and other parties who contributed to causing your injuries.

Even after a settlement is reached, we continue to work to increase the amount of money you receive when the case is closed. By negotiating reductions in unpaid medical bills and on health insurance reimbursement liens, we increase your end-of-case payment.

Crash victims often have a right to collect MedPay benefits. We charge no fee to file for these benefits, and we also coordinate use of med pay benefits to maximize your settlement proceeds.

Insurance companies task accident victims constantly, making you sign medical authorizations granting them access to your medical history, and making you gather and produce all of your medical records and bills. Once you hire us, the insurance company cannot contact you by mail, phone or in person. From the date we become involved, we handle all paperwork and legwork for you. As soon as we are involved, your only job is to work with doctors to recover from your injuries - we will handle everything else!

In many cases, more than one party owes for injury claims. For example, Police Reports do not indicate whether a driver was employed by Uber or some other outside employer. We find out if the at-fault driver is employed and, if so, we collect from the employer as well. Also, sometimes a product failure contributes to the victim’s injuries. For example, an air-bag failure may cause additional injury. In these cases, we collect from the product manufacturer as well as from the at-fault driver. Similarly, if a restaurant or bar serves too much alcohol to a drunk driver, we work to collect from the drunk driver and the bar owners. Identifying all responsible parties is essential in the effort to collect full payment for catastrophic injury victims.

We practice trial law in both state and federal courts. Our experience in tractor trailer and trucking cases places us in federal court frequently. Our legal team stands ready to prosecute your claims in federal court whenever necessary - and our reduced fee structure remains the same.
