The Layton Law Firm is a boutique Charlotte law practice founded by Christopher D. Layton, dedicated to protecting individuals facing personal injury claims and financial challenges. Established in 2011 and located in the Charlotte area, the firm represents plaintiffs who have been harmed by negligence across diverse matters including car accidents, slip-and-falls, nursing home abuse, wrongful death, and workers’ compensation.
Attorney Layton brings over two decades of legal experience to Charlotte, having practiced since 2000. A Wake Forest University law graduate with a journalism background from the University of Maryland, he focuses on personal injury cases and teaches continuing legal education courses to fellow attorneys. His client-centered approach emphasizes transparent communication and personalized attention throughout the legal process.
The firm operates on contingency fees for personal injury cases, ensuring clients pay nothing unless compensation is recovered. Notable successes include securing full policy limits in challenging cases where liability was initially denied. Beyond personal injury, the practice assists with Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy filings and residential real estate closings.
