Offering focused admiralty and maritime law representation at my law firm, Charles K. McCotter Jr., Attorney at Law, I proudly serve clients in the North Bern area and throughout North Carolina. My law office also provides personal injury counsel, helping those injured through no fault of their own recover the maximum compensation for their accident-associated losses. Having over 50 years of legal experience, I have seen the physical, emotional and financial fallouts that people may experience after an accident at sea or on land.

I represent clients with cases involving matters such as the following: maritime accidents, animal bites, assault and battery injuries, aviation accidents, birth injuries, brain injuries, car accidents, civil claims, class action claims, construction accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, products liability, sexual abuse, trucking accidents and wrongful death.

In addition to helping people recover the maximum compensation for injuries occurring due to the negligence or carelessness of others, I aid clients with business and commercial and real estate law matters. My law office handles cases that involve concerns related to business organizations, contract disputes and eminent domain. Aiding clients as they prepare for the future, I also provide estate planning and estate and probate administration services. I assist people with establishing wills and trusts, as well as addressing elder law-related matters.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
