Profile
A Powerhouse for Justice in North Carolina
The Law Offices of James Scott Farrin is one of the largest and most recognized personal injury firms in North Carolina. Founded in 1997, the firm has grown from a small operation into a legal juggernaut with over 60 attorneys and a support staff of more than 200. They are perhaps best known for leading a team of firms in one of the largest civil rights cases in U.S. history, recovering $1.25 billion for Black farmers who were discriminated against by the government. If you need to find a lawyer who has the resources to take on massive corporations and the government, James Scott Farrin is a proven leader.
Comprehensive Injury Representation
The firm’s size allows it to house dedicated departments for various types of injury law, ensuring that clients receive specialized attention rather than generalist representation. Their primary practice areas include:
- Car Accidents: A large team of attorneys, many of whom are former insurance defense lawyers, dedicated to fighting for maximum compensation.
- Workers’ Compensation: helping injured employees navigate the complex NC Industrial Commission system to secure benefits.
- Personal Injury: Handling cases involving slips and falls, dog bites, and other negligence claims.
- Mass Torts: Representing groups of people harmed by dangerous products or environmental hazards (like Camp Lejeune water contamination).
- Eminent Domain: Protecting property owners when the government tries to take their land.
Diversity and Excellence
James Scott Farrin prides itself on its diverse and inclusive culture, having been recognized as a ‘Leader in Diversity’ by the Triangle Business Journal. The firm’s ‘You-First’ policy means that despite their size, they focus on individual client needs. They have been consistently named to the ‘Fast 50’ list of fastest-growing companies and have numerous attorneys listed in ‘Best Lawyers in America.’ When you hire a lawyer from this firm, you are getting a team that combines the personal touch of a local firm with the muscle of a national player.
No Fee Unless You Win
The firm operates on a contingency fee basis for personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. This means there are no upfront costs to open a file, and you do not pay an attorney’s fee unless they recover money for you. This commitment ensures that high-quality legal representation is accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation. If you need an attorney, their team is available 24/7 to start your case.
