About Us

I am Jacob Goad. I began the Law Office of Jacob Goad after college at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill and law school at North Carolina Central University. After graduation, I have worked tirelessly to help Greensboro residents get the full recovery they need after catastrophic car collisions.

My goal is simple: I work diligently and don’t rest until I’ve won the fair compensation my clients deserve. I know insurance companies try to take advantage of accident victims by offering lowball settlements. Some people without attorneys jump at these unfair settlements. Fortunately, when you hire my firm, we can pursue all the available money in your case. Whether you live in Starmount Forest or Guilford Hills, my team is ready to hear about your unique car accident.

I speak Spanish fluently, so I can provide comprehensive legal services in English and Spanish. For help with essentially any car accident, give my office a call.

What Types of Car Accident Claims Can an Attorney Discuss?

In 2023, there were approximately 2.44 million reported car crash injuries in the U.S. Sadly, North Carolina saw 8,079 collision fatalities that year. We believe this is too many. To hold the at-fault party or parties accountable after a car crash, contact an attorney who can pursue your just compensation.

You shouldn’t have to pay for an accident that wasn’t your fault. At my office, we can discuss your accident involving:

  • Negligent or reckless drivers
  • Inexperienced drivers
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
  • Distracted drivers
  • Hit-and-run accidents
  • Aggressive drivers with road rage
  • Wrong-way driver accidents
  • Head-on collisions
  • T-bone accidents
  • Sideswipes
  • Multi-vehicle wrecks
  • Defective vehicles
  • Rideshare accidents involving companies like Uber or Lyft
  • Uninsured or underinsured motorists

A Greensboro car accident attorney can investigate your collision and assess fault. A lawyer who’s familiar with our area can discuss your specific accident and which party can be held responsible for your injuries.

Where Do Many Accidents Happen Locally?

Throughout Greensboro, there are some known accident hotspots where accidents happen with greater frequency. These include:

  • S. 29
  • I-40, particularly at the Randleman Road Corridor, Martin Luther King Drive, and Elm-Eugene Street
  • West Wendover Avenue, typically around I-40 and other interchanges
  • North Elm Street
  • Creek Ridge Road
  • Northwood Street and Tankersley Street

If you’re traveling in these areas, drive with extra caution. If you can’t avoid an accident, consult a trusted attorney about your specific crash.

What Kinds of Injuries Are Common for Car Accident Victims in Greensboro, North Carolina?

Victims of car accidents often face a long recovery. They may suffer the following injuries:

  • Severe back, spinal cord, neck, and head injuries
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Amputations
  • Paralysis
  • Severe bone fractures
  • Internal injuries
  • Serious burns
  • Chest injuries
  • Crash-related fatalities

After an accident, you may require surgery if you’re lucky enough to survive. You shouldn’t have to pay for out-of-pocket medical costs if your accident wasn’t your fault. An attorney can get you accountability after a wreck someone else caused.

For a wrongful death claim against the party at fault for a crash, reach out to a compassionate attorney familiar with these complex claims. At the Law Office of Jacob Goad, we have extensive experience with both personal injury and wrongful death claims. We can meet confidentially to explore your recovery options. North Carolina’s car accident laws are mostly based on fault, and we can hold the person at fault for your accident financially responsible.

What’s the Value of My Car Wreck Claim?

Your claim’s value is case-specific and typically determined by many factors, like:

  • Your insurance policy limit
  • The policy limit of the other, at-fault driver
  • Your injury’s severity
  • The extent of the damage to your car

An attorney familiar with car accidents can review your specific accident during an initial consultation. They can estimate the value of your claim and then pursue the maximum damages you’re eligible to recover.

What Recovery Can I Expect From a Winning Greensboro Car Crash Claim?

If you have a winning claim, you may be entitled to a variety of damages. Many people think they’re cutting costs by not using an attorney. However, not only can an attorney use their experience to maximize your recovery, but they can also pursue every possible kind of financial recovery available. When you hire an attorney, they can fight for all the compensation you deserve, including:

  • Medical bills
  • Necessary future medical care costs
  • Vehicle repairs
  • Lost wages
  • Emotional distress
  • Punitive damages in certain circumstances
  • Other accident-related losses

It’s worth meeting with an attorney to discuss all the compensation you could recover, since many people don’t really understand the value of their case until they speak with a lawyer. The Law Office of Jacob Goad can navigate your car accident claim. We can increase your likelihood of a successful collision claim when someone else is at fault.

Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer After an Accident?

Yes, it’s always recommended that you speak with an attorney about any North Carolina car accident. An attorney can discuss your legal options and prove that the other driver caused your accident. When you hire a car accident lawyer, they can secure you compensation through a negotiated settlement or a legal claim.
