Thank you for visiting the Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina (Halifax County) page of our website. Our Roanoke Rapids office exists to assist those who have experienced an NC work related injury or an NC  personal injury (NC car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident or victim of drunk driving) in or around Roanoke Rapids, NC. We also assist people who have been denied Social Security disability benefits or wish to file Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) applications in NC.

The lawyers in our firm have more than 280 years of combined legal experience.

More than half of the attorneys in the Personal Injury Department have at least 10 years of legal experience, and several have 15 years or more. The team also has four members who formerly worked as defense attorneys for insurance companies, so they have seen the law from both sides.

Two of the attorneys in our Workers’ Compensation Department served in the North Carolina Industrial Commission (NCIC) before joining the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin. Four are Board Certified Specialists in Workers’ Compensation Law. Board Certified Specialists are recognized by the North Carolina State Bar as having special knowledge and proficiency in their practice area.

The head of our Social Security Department is a North Carolina Board Certified Specialist in Social Security Disability Law who is fluent in both English and Spanish. Several members of the team, including a second attorney, have previous experience as examiners at Disability Determination Services (DDS). As such, they determined the merits of initial applications for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).
