How does NC accident insurance work? Who pays if I was hurt in North Carolina?
by Danny Glover, OBX Accident Attorney and Outer Bank Personal Injury Lawyer
Not having enough accident insurance can present quite a problem. That is especially true if you are the one who caused the car accident (OBX lawyers call that “at fault” or “legal liability”) and are subject to claims for negligence in North Carolina.
After an OBX wreck, what happens to my car? Who pays for vehicle damages? Am I required to get my car fixed after an accident?
One of the more immediate concerns after an Outer Banks car accident is dealing with getting your car repaired. Even with a rental, which may be an option in some instances, it takes time to review the damages and schedule work to be performed. It also may take more than one shop, especially if there is substantial frame damage, bodywork, and the need for painting.
While a lot of focus is understandably placed on personal injuries, medical care, and outstanding medical bills, lawyers also provide legal representation for property damages, vehicle repair, valuation of the loss, and depreciation after a wreck.

Sometimes more than one person can cause the wreck, sometimes 100% of the fault rests on one driver.
Determining who is legally liable for accident injuries in North Carolina requires careful review of the documentation of the wreck scene and causes of the NC accident case.
