North Carolina Work Accident Attorneys

At Charles G. Monnett, III & Associates, our workers’ compensation attorneys have represented people injured in workplace accidents for almost fifty years.
People who suffer workplace injuries often have their financial future as well as their career placed in jeopardy. It is important to hire a workers’ compensation attorney who is knowledgeable of the North Carolina Workers’ Compensation Act While out of work due to an on the job injury, the Workers’ Compensation Act provides that injured workers are to be paid two thirds of their average weekly wages.



Because of this, it is important to hire an attorney who can navigate your claim and ensure that you are receiving the maximum benefits allowed under the Workers’ Compensation Act. Employers and insurance companies often work to limit the compensation paid to an injured worker, while the attorneys at Charles G. Monnett III & Associates work hard to ensure our clients receive all the benefits they are entitled to under North Carolina Law. In addition to weekly benefits while out of work, an employer is responsible for paying for medical treatment recommended by your authorized treating physician as well as for any permanent impairment you are assigned by your treating physician.

Our workers’ compensation lawyers work with injured workers all over the state to assure our clients’ claims are filed and handled appropriately. It is important to remember that in North Carolina, when injured on the job, you have two years to file your workers’ compensation claim with the North Carolina Industrial Commission. When workers’ compensation claims are denied, our lawyers handle appeals through the North Carolina Industrial Commission, Court of Appeals and North Carolina Supreme Court. Charles G. Monnett, III & Associates has an exceptional record of success in workers’ compensation cases as well as in appeals.

In Myers v. Ben Mynatt Chevrolet Cadillac (12-1211), we were successful at all levels of appeal when an employer wrongfully denied a long-time employee’s back injury as a compensable workers’ compensation injury.
In Holloway v. CV Indus., Inc. (12-868), we were successful in obtaining attendant care for an injured client who could no longer take care of herself due to her work-related injury when attendant care services were denied by her employer and their insurance company.
