Years ago I had an issue that required the assistance of an attorney. I unfortunately had a lawyer that provided the wrong advice and left my family worse off. That experience taught me what to look for and expect in an effective attorney going forward. During our 1st consultation, it was clear to me that Vernon was engaged and knowledgeable.
I was referred to Vernon and the Sumwalt Group by the president of my union following an on the job injury. Seeking Vernon’s counsel has truly proved to be the best decision I could’ve made.
I don’t know why it seems as if the company goes out of their way to make this process difficult for the worker. Knowing what to say, when to say it and to whom to speak to regarding your workers comp claim can be the difference between your claim go through smoothly or going horribly wrong. I am thankful that Vernon made me feel as though I had a partner, helping me through this process.
My relationship with The Sumwalt Group began when I was involved in an accident at work. I have to tell you from the time Vernon came to my house and talked to me about him representing me I felt I had someone in my corner fighting for me.He and his great staff took total control of any and every situation that happened to come up. They constantly kept me informed of what was going on and gladly answered any and all questions I had. If your looking for a professional and caring team to represent you The Sumwalt group is a great choice.Thank you to Vernon and Kimberly for all your hard work.
Vernon represented me in my Worker’s Comp case and helped me get what I needed. I couldn’t speak any higher of an attorney save maybe my custody lawyer, Joe Peterson (equal footing, different reasons). If any of my airline friends (anyone really) is in need of an attorney to represent them for a worker’s comp claim, please make Vernon your number one choice.
Vernon was highly recommended to us as a result of my wife’s work related injury. At the outset of our first meeting, we knew that Vernon was the man for the job. He is very professional in his dealings and very realistic about what he can do for you. He settled our case to our satisfaction and in a very timely manner. I highly recommend Vernon for handling your injury case.
As we all know it is very stressful dealing with legal issues alone. My search for representation ended when I received what turned out to be an excellent referral. Vernon Sumwalt came highly recommended by a claims professional. From our initial consultation I felt that immediate relief. Vernon is very personable as well as knowledgeable. He consistently educated me on the areas of law related to my case. Most important, Vernon is a fair and honest man. I can’t say enough about him. Now it’s my turn to highly recommend Vernon Sumwalt.
Great job and superb customer service
I am very pleased with the Sumwalt group representation. I highly recommend them.
Vernon is so easy to talk with. He always welcomed my questions and responded very professionally and provided very understood answers. He has been recommended by many of my coworkers. He’s very friendly, professional, and conscientious.
Ii had/have an injury from Amazon and Attorney Vernon was there from start to finish. Dealt with my frustrations went to bat for me every time. My medical, therapy and something in my pocket plus more. I’m so grateful that he was recommended to me. Amazon ain’t no joke but all my bills were paid, plus. I recommend Attorney Vernon to everyone. He has your best interest. Even in a fight with Amazon. He’s the best!! He put up with me. A real blessing.
Vernon Sumwalt & The Sumwalt Group is by far the BEST. My husband was hurt on his job which required a Worker’s Comp lawyer. Prior to hiring Vernon, he gave us sound advice and shared valuable information. From start to finish Vernon was prompt, often responding on the weekends and after hours to answer questions and put our minds at ease. His thorough understanding of NC Worker’s Compensation laws and Social Security Disability information was very rewarding. Thank you Vernon for caring, sharing and helping us through the entire process. It was a pleasure working with you.
I could not begin to recommend the Sumwalt Group more. Anyone dealing with workers comp knows what a mess it is trying to wade through all of it and I never would have made it to the end without Vernon. Every question I had was answered immediately, and he explained things so I was able to understand the process. Please call them, they are excellent!
I will only recommend Vernon to anyone wanting to have some legal representation in regards to their workers comp claims. Both my mother and I have back injuries that Vernon helped navigate through our Workers comp claims. He is kind, compassionate, and thorough. I have referred several people to him, and he was more than happy to help them as well. He is prompt with responding to questions or concerns, and never rushes you off the phone or out of the office. He will make sure you understand every aspect of your claim and what your rights are. When you are considering retaining a workers comp lawyer, please make sure to put Vernon and his team at the top of your list!!!!!
Vernon Sumwalt and his team (Kimberly Durkee) are extremely knowledgeable. Vernon Sumwalt was my attorney for over 12 years. Helped me through some of the toughest times of my life. I unfortunately had 5 back surgeries over those 12 years, and Vernon and his team was there with me and my family every step of the way. Thoroughness & communication is one of their strong points, but knowledge of the workers comp & Social Security Disability system is unmatched. You couldn’t getting a better, hard working and caring team to represent you in those hard times. Thank you Vernon for all you did for me and my family.

Vernon was very helpful and knowledgeable from the start of explaining my husband’s situation in a workers comp dispute with his company. Vernon was very thorough and willing to answer all questions before signing on with him. He was extremely responsive to all calls, emails and texts. A very professional and experienced workers comp attorney.
Mr. Vernon Sumwalt was very professional and to the point on questions that I needed assistance on. I recommend him for his experience and being consistent with his word. Don’t hesitate to call him or his associates at the law firm. He is highly recommend by my vote and others to handle issues.
Vernon Sumwalt with The Sumwalt Group was amazing and so helpful during my whole process. If I had any questions or concerns, the response time was within no more than two days. Their compassion and concern was unparalleled. Thank You for all you do!
Vernon has been absolutely amazing. A year and half after I had been injured at work and after receiving medical treatment, it was time to start the settlement process. I was given an offer and wasn’t sure if it was good. I found The Sumwalt Group on Google and saw the 5 star reviews. I reached out to them to see if I could get some advice. Vernon was the one to call me and gave me some wonderful free advice on countering and what would be a good amount. He also looked over the settlement agreement I received to make sure it wouldn’t mess up any potential social security/disability in the future. Vernon made me feel like he cared and like he wanted the best for me on this settlement and helped me to avoid having to hire a lawyer and drag out the process. I hope I never get hurt on the job again, but if I ever do I will definitely reach out to them again.
