Child Abuse

Criminal Defense
Having a domestic violence charge on your record, even without a conviction, can have lasting implications, forever branding you with a social stigma. If you are convicted, you could face a prison sentence, the possibility of never owning a firearm, and other severe consequences. No matter the circumstances, domestic violence charges can wreak havoc in your present life and forever short-change your future opportunities. The criminal defense team at DeMent Askew & Johnson has years of experience handling domestic violence cases, including those like...
DUI/DWI
Despite public awareness and education programs and a decrease in fatal drunk driving accidents, statistics show that drunk driving accidents continue to take the lives of innocent passengers, drivers, pedestrians, and bicycle and motorcycle riders. Drivers who make the decision to get behind the wheel after consuming alcohol put themselves, their passengers, and everyone on the road at risk. Unfortunately, the drunk driving accident attorneys at DeMent Askew have seen far too many innocent people hurt or killed in these types of accidents, and we work hard to ensure they or their loved ones get the compensation they need from the parties responsible for their injuries.
Wrongful Death
Other than fatal injuries under the North Carolina Wrongful Death Act, catastrophic injuries are the most severe and serious of injuries. Catastrophic injuries completely change the life of its victim and the victims’ family members who must now render constant care to their loved one suffering from a catastrophic injury. Catastrophic injuries include, but are not limited to the following injuries...
Traffic Violations
In North Carolina, speeding is one of the most common traffic violations. The penalties for speeding include fines and court costs, increased car insurance rates, points on your driving record, and you could even have your driver’s license suspended. Because of the severity of the penalties for speeding in our state, you should consult with an attorney if you have been issued a speeding ticket. How severe the punishment you receive for speeding depends on several factors that include the driver’s past driving record and how far over the speed limit the driver was going when caught by law enforcement. In North Carolina going 15 miles over a posted 55 mph speed limit or driving more than 80 miles per hour could get your license suspended and requires a court appearance. Accruing multiple speeding convictions in one year could also cause your driver’s license to be suspended.
Sex Crimes
Fraud
If you are facing charges for prescription fraud or unlicensed possession, it is imperative that you contact an attorney experienced in handling this specific kind of charge. We understand that every case is unique, and our team of drug defense attorneys will carefully listen to the facts of your case and answer all of your questions. The attorneys at DeMent Askew & Johnson regularly defend clients facing prescription drug-related charges, including but not limited to the following...
Robbery
Burglary
Theft
Misdemeanors
Specifically, the law deems it illegal to enter letters or text into a device as a means of communicating with another person or read mail or texts transmitted to or stored on the device. Bus drivers who violate this law will be charged with a Class 2 misdemeanor. Drivers who violate this law will be guilty of an infraction and fined $100.00 plus court costs. Exceptions to the law include drivers who are legally parked or stopped, using voice-operated technologies, or using a global positioning system (GPS).
Embezzlement
Drug Crimes
People often assume that drug manufacturing charges are specific to drugs which can be made from combining chemicals, like LSD or crystal meth, but these charges can also result from the cultivation of marijuana. Actually, charges can be made against any person involved in any step of the illicit drug production process. This means if you purchase ingredients, like pseudoephedrine used in the manufacturing of methamphetamine, you can be charged. North Carolina has established an undesirable reputation for methamphetamine manufacturing.
Assault
Murder
In North Carolina, DWI/DUI laws are particularly harsh, with even tougher statutes being passed on a regular basis. North Carolina law enforcement officials are especially focused on enforcing these laws to the fullest extent with no mercy or leniency towards the accused. North Carolina courts and judges can be staunch in their views towards driving while intoxicated, and minimum sentencing guidelines limit their ability to provide therapeutic sentences for defendants charged with these crimes. Experienced criminal defense attorneys in North Carolina will tell you that defending a DWI/DUI case is just as complicated as defending a murder charge in a fatigued criminal justice system.
Probation Violation
Even if you're not sure if you are eligible for expungement, you should consult a North Carolina attorney experienced with the legal process. There are lots of questions about terms, interpretations, and procedures to be expected. Is there a waiting period? Can you get an expungement in more than one state? Are traffic related charges eligible, like DWI ? Are probation violations eligible? Our attorneys are experienced in expungement and can answer all your questions. Call (919) 833-5555 now or contact us online to begin the expungement process.

Manslaughter
Felony Death by Vehicle is a Class D felony in North Carolina, punishable by imprisonment, the permanent loss of your driving privilege, and the imposition of fines completely within a judge’s discretion. While a Felony Death by Vehicle charge is often referred to as a charge for “Felony Vehicular Homicide,” “Felony Vehicular Manslaughter,” or “Felony DWI/DUI,” each of these terms refers to the same criminal offense, a DUI/DWI resulting in a fatal injury. There are 3 essential elements the State must prove to secure a conviction for Felony Death by Vehicle...

Premises Liability
Property owners have a duty to maintain their property and keep it safe and hazard-free. North Carolina law imposes this duty on all property owners, public and private. When a property owner breaches this duty and injuries occur, North Carolina’s premises liability laws entitle the innocent party to be compensated for resulting injuries and damages, including medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other losses. If you have suffered an injury while on someone else’s property and believe you have a premises liability claim, you should contact an experienced premises liability, or “slip-and-fall," attorney right away.
Construction Litigation
Property Damage
When you are injured in a crash accident, the most important thing is your health. Focus first on your treatment and getting better. Follow your doctors' instructions and continue to seek their care if your symptoms do not subside, if you hurt, or if complications ensue. We understand the challenges serious injuries bring: the tangled web of liability insurance, property damage issues, health insurance coverage, employment matters arising from your injuries, medical costs and collections, rental car matters, and making ends meet while you are struggling to heal. Our lawyers can take over these conversations for you; we collect and organize the necessary documentation; we help you understand the extent of your damages and make demands on your behalf. We work to ensure all of these moving parts operate as seamlessly as possible and when reasonable expectations are not met, we are dauntless in our pursuit of maximum compensation for your damages through through the courts.

Personal Injury
Tractor trailers and commercial trucks provide a great service to us all- delivering the goods we need. Unfortunately they also present a grave danger. Accidents involving these large vehicles can result in severe personal injury and sometimes death. DeMent Askew has extensive experience in helping those that have been injured, and helping the families that have had a loved one killed, in severe trucking accidents.
Medical Malpractice
If you have suffered an injury due to the failure of a professional to adhere to an appropriate standard of care, you may have a claim for professional negligence to recover your resulting damages. In addition to medical malpractice, professional negligence claims can arise from your business dealings with almost any kind of professional you retain, including accountants, CPAs and other tax professionals, engineers, and lawyers.
Auto Accidents
Dog Bites
Slip and Fall Injury
. There is no end to the number of different ways slip-and-fall injuries can occur. Slip-and-fall cases frequently arise from accidents such as slipping in a puddle that has not been properly marked or thoroughly cleaned or falling on an uneven surface or a poorly designed staircase. No matter how slip-and-fall accidents occur, they can cause serious injuries, including broken bones, spinal damage, herniated discs, concussions, and head trauma, all of which require extensive medical care and prolonged recovery. If you have suffered a slip-and-fall injury, having the skills and assistance of a premises liability attorney may be the only way you can ensure a full and fair recovery for all of your damages.
