Serving injured workers
and accident victims across NC
If you’ve been hurt in an accident, you don’t have to face the insurance company alone. Our North Carolina personal injury attorneys fight for people across North Carolina to recover the compensation they deserve.
When someone else’s carelessness turns your life upside down, everything can feel like it’s moving too fast—except your recovery. You’re in pain, bills are piling up, and dealing with the insurance company feels like a second full-time job. We get it.
At Johnson & Groninger PLLC, we’ve stood with people in the same spot you’re in now. We know how overwhelming it gets, and we’re here to take some of that weight off your shoulders.
If you were seriously injured—or lost someone you love—because of another person’s actions, you deserve more than apologies. You deserve answers. You deserve compensation. And you deserve a personal injury attorney who won’t back down when things get tough.
Our team in North Carolina steps in quickly to get to work while you focus on healing. Here’s what we take care of:
We’re not just any law firm. We’re trial lawyers. That means when push comes to shove, we don’t fold under pressure from the insurance company—we push back. And we’ve got the track record to prove it.
When you’re hurt because of someone else’s negligence, you need legal representation that knows how North Carolina personal injury law works—inside and out. That’s what we bring to the table.
Every case we take is personal. We know how much is riding on this for you and your family. That’s why we bring all our experience—and all our grit—to the table.
Here’s the kind of work we do every day:
A serious car crash can change your life in a split second. We’ve represented clients left with permanent injuries—spinal cord trauma, brain injuries, you name it. These aren’t just claims to us. These are people trying to put their lives back together. We deal with the insurance company, file the claim, and fight for fair compensation while you focus on getting better.
Ann Groninger is not only an attorney—she’s part of North Carolina’s biking community. She understands the unique risks cyclists face and the laws that apply when something goes wrong. As a founding member of Bike Law, she represents injured riders injured in bike crashes with insight and passion.
If you’ve suffered a life-changing injury, you need a lawyer who sees the full picture—your medical needs, your future income, your quality of life. We’ve helped clients with severe burns, traumatic brain injuries, and other catastrophic injuries pursue the compensation they truly need, not just what the insurance company is offering.
We’ve helped families facing the unimaginable. We’ve worked with spouses, children, and parents who lost someone they loved because of someone else’s negligence.
From fatal crashes involving dump trucks or drunk drivers to tragic incidents during community events, these cases are heartbreaking, and they demand care, focus, and strength. That’s what we offer.
You shouldn’t get hurt just because you walked into the wrong store or used the wrong appliance. When unsafe conditions or defective products cause serious injuries, we take on property owners and manufacturers. We know how to get answers and hold them accountable.
We know how confusing those first few moments—and days—after an injury can be. Whether it happened on the road, at work, or somewhere you never expected, the steps you take right after can seriously affect your personal injury case.
Here’s what we recommend if you’ve been hurt in North Carolina:
Personal injury law in North Carolina isn’t always forgiving—and that’s exactly why having the right lawyer by your side matters. Here’s what you need to know if you’re thinking about filing a claim:
North Carolina follows one of the strictest rules in the country. If a court finds that you were even 1% at fault for what happened, you could lose your right to any compensation. It’s harsh—but it’s the law. That’s why it’s critical to work with a North Carolina personal injury attorney who knows how to protect your claim from day one.
In most cases, you have three years from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit. Miss that deadline, and you may lose the chance to seek any kind of recovery. There are exceptions, but they’re rare—so don’t wait.
A successful personal injury case in North Carolina may include several forms of compensation. We fight to recover everything our clients are legally entitled to, including:
These cover the actual costs you’ve faced, like emergency room bills, follow-up care, physical therapy, lost wages, and any future impact on your ability to earn a living.
These are the losses that don’t show up on a receipt—pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life. If your injury changed the way you live day to day, these damages matter just as much.
We know how to prove both.
At Johnson & Groninger PLLC, we don’t just file paperwork. We stand up for people who’ve been hurt due to someone else’s negligence—and we do it with the full force of our North Carolina law firm behind them. Here’s how the process usually goes when we take on your case:
We’ll sit down with you (in person or virtually), listen to your story, and talk through your options. No pressure, no strings. Just solid, honest legal advice.
Once you hire us, we start digging in. We collect records, track down witnesses, consult experts—whatever it takes to build a case that shows exactly what happened and why you deserve full compensation.
After the investigation, we’ll identify everyone who played a role in your injury and either file a lawsuit or send a demand letter outlining the damages.
Most personal injury claims settle without going to court—but we prepare every case like we’re heading to trial. That preparation often leads to better results during negotiation.
If the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer, we won’t back down. We have a strong record in the courtroom and are fully prepared to fight for you there.
We don’t just practice personal injury law—we fight for real people who’ve had their lives turned upside down by someone else’s negligence. With a deep commitment to our clients across North Carolina, we’ve helped people move forward after devastating injuries and heartbreaking losses.
Here’s a look at some of the outcomes we’ve secured:
We take on tough cases—and we don’t get paid unless we win. That’s because we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning no upfront costs. If we don’t recover compensation for you, you don’t owe us a thing.
Our clients say it best:
“If patience is a virtue, this group are all saints. Never was there a question left unanswered nor a phone call not returned.”
— Barbi Taperek
“I highly recommend this group! Valerie and her staff care about you as a person and make sure all your needs are taken care of.”
— Barbara Walters Parrish
