Jim Fuller
  Trial Attorney, Personal Injury Team Leader  

“Serious injury cases require hard work, creativity and the toughness to fight for the client’s rights,” Fuller says. “While most cases are resolved through negations or mediation, the client only gets a full and fair recovery when their lawyer conducts a full investigation, employs the latest technology, communicates effectively and is fully prepared to take the insurance company Goliaths to trial when settlement offers are unfair.”

Jim Fuller has been ranked as one of the "Best Lawyers in America" for 20 years. Most recently he was ranked in the top 100 and was 1 of only 4 personal injury lawyers named to this prestigious list. He is a widely respected trial lawyer known throughout the state for his commitment to justice and his exceptional litigation skills. With 32-years of courtroom experience, Fuller has dedicated his legal practice to helping people who have been injured in automobile accidents or by professional negligence.

 
 
 
His career-long track record of achieving successful results for his clients has earned him recognition throughout North Carolina and among his peers in the legal field nationally. Named to the Best Lawyers in America every year since 1982, he’s also a fellow in the prestigious American College of Trial Lawyers, the American Board of Trial Advocates and the International Society of Barristers.

 
  His commitment to justice and to his community also have been noted over the years with awards such as the Chief Justice Walter Clark Award for extraordinary service to the cause of justice for all by the N.C. Academy of Trial Lawyers and the Friend of Education Award for service to teachers and public school education by the N.C. Association of Educators.
