If your claim is accepted and you are getting ongoing benefits, we do not normally charge an attorney fee until after a hearing or settlement. You need the benefits to survive on.
Our main concern is LONG TERM. We only accept serious injury cases requiring surgery. Be aware you may also have a Social Security Disability claim. Your benefits in an accepted claim can only be stopped by the Industrial Commission or by a return to work. NCWORKCOMP.COM
