Langino Law PLLC

Langino Law PLLC Helping families with catastrophic injury, personal injury, and wrongful death claims in North Carolina - based out of Chapel Hill.

Adam was born and raised in New York and earned his undergraduate degree in political science from the University of Maryland. After graduation, he attended law school at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, where he simultaneously competed as an amateur boxer. Developing skills as a fighter required discipline, focus, and resilience - traits that have been assets in his professional life e

ver since. Adam moved to West Palm Beach, FL after law school and worked as an assistant public defender, a job he took out of a fervent belief that justice belongs not just to the rich and powerful, but to everyone. Over the next three years, Adam gained valuable experience as a trial attorney handling complex, high stakes cases. The transition to plaintiff's law was a natural next step. As a plaintiff's attorney, Adam has spent over a decade representing ordinary people who have been harmed by the carelessness and greed of large corporations. He worked at a prestigious national law firm with offices across several major U.S. cities, and served as primary attorney on a variety of catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. His verdicts and settlements total over $50 million, and he considers it an honor and his professional duty to help people hold large corporations accountable. In 2018, Adam and his wife moved to Chapel Hill, NC with their three young children. Since then, Adam has continued to work on cases in North Carolina, Florida, and throughout the country. In early 2022, he decided the time was right to establish Langino Law, PLLC. Owning his law practice affords Adam independence over his cases and the ability to forge meaningful connections with his clients, most of whom are referred to him by a nationwide network of friends and colleagues from a wide variety of legal practice areas.

The thing that keeps most people from reaching out isn't the legal process, it's not knowing what the legal process looks like. You call. We talk honestly about what happened. No fees unless there's a recovery (I carry the financial risk). One of the first things I do is formally preserve evidence, which is more time-sensitive than most people expect. Most cases resolve without trial.

Once you make that call, I handle what comes next.

Myth 1: "We have to prove someone meant to harm them." Fact: Wrongful death is a civil claim. You do not need to prove bad intent. Negligence, a failure to act with reasonable care, is the standard.

Myth 2: "If the criminal case didn't result in charges, we have no options." Fact: Civil and criminal cases operate under entirely different standards of proof. A failed or dropped criminal case does not close the door on a civil wrongful death claim.

Myth 3: "Filing a lawsuit means a long, drawn-out court battle." Fact: Most cases resolve through negotiation or mediation. Trial is one option among several. An honest attorney will tell you what to realistically expect.

Myth 4: "A lawsuit is just about money." Fact: Wrongful death claims serve two purposes, real financial support for a family that has lost income, stability, and a person, and accountability that can prevent the same failure from happening to someone else.

If your family has lost someone due to another party's negligence, I am here to answer your questions directly.

Most people have heard the word negligence. Few understand what it actually means when it becomes a lawsuit. Here is the breakdown.

To win a negligence claim, four things have to be proven:
1. Duty: The other party had a legal obligation to act with reasonable care toward you.
2. Breach: They failed to meet that standard.
3. Causation: That failure is what caused your injury.
4. Damages: You suffered harm as a result.

Every element has to hold. If one is missing, the case changes significantly. That is why the facts; what was in place, what wasn't, what happened when, all matter from the very first conversation.

North Carolina sees nearly 300,000 car collisions every year. A third result in injury. And in the last decade, traffic fatalities in this state have gone up 29%.

Most people who reach out to me after a serious crash have no idea what they're actually dealing with legally because it is the first time they or someone they love has been seriously injured. They don't know North Carolina's contributory negligence rule (which means even being found 1% at fault can be used to deny their entire claim). That's not a small detail…

Sometimes the insurance companies try to take advantage of this by calling injured persons before they’ve hired an attorney and asking loaded questions to suggest the injured person was at fault for what happened. That’s why it is important to retain a lawyer as soon as possible.

If you or someone you love was seriously hurt in a crash in North Carolina, don't navigate it alone.

The most meaningful feedback I receive comes from clients who trusted me with the hardest moments of their lives, community members who know me best, and fellow attorneys who understand what this work actually takes. I am grateful for every person who has trusted us with their case. That trust is not something I take lightly.

05/07/2026

When a family says they found closure, that the right thing was done, that is the part of this work I do not take for granted. It is the reason I do it.

Trust is not something clients owe an attorney. It is something you have to earn, case by case, conversation by conversation. I try never to forget that.

If you have a matter involving catastrophic injury or wrongful death, in North Carolina and Florida, I am here to talk.

That is not a suggestion. It is the law. Landlords, property managers, and business owners have a legal duty to provide a reasonably safe environment and protect the public from foreseeable criminal activity...

When they fail to do so, and innocent people suffer violent attacks as a result, they must be held accountable. That is what negligent security law exists for.

Unlike a criminal case, which focuses on punishing the wrongdoer, a negligent security claim lets victims seek compensation from the property owner for medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional distress. It also creates pressure for the property to actually become safer… so what happened to you does not happen to someone else.

You, your family, and your community should be on the same playing field as some of the largest corporations and wealthiest people in the United States. A court of law allows us to do that.

If you were harmed on a property that failed to protect you, reach out. That is exactly the kind of case Langino Law handles.

Today is Law Day, a day to reflect on what the law is actually for. For me, that answer has always been the same: people. Not volume, not billboards, not a hundred cases at a time.

Some firms handle thousands of cases at a time. One attorney juggling a hundred clients. That has never been how I practice. I keep the number of people I represent intentionally small, so that when you hire Langino Law, all hands are on deck for your case. Not someone else's.

I've been to clients' family events. I've gotten holiday cards. That human connection is what people actually need when they hire a lawyer.

That is the kind of law practice I am proud to run. And I am here if you ever should need my firm’s services.
