Angela Farag Craddock
Young Moore and Henderson, P.A.

A shareholder at Young Moore, Angela represents employers and insurance companies in all stages of litigation before the North Carolina Industrial Commission and North Carolina Appellate Courts. Her practice includes assisting her clients with complex workers’ compensation matters, risk management policies, medical cost containment strategies, and in directing care toward evidence-based solutions. Through this work she has developed a particular interest in policies designed to address the public health crisis of the opioid epidemic, the growing adoption of medical marijuana laws across the country, and legal developments related to the treatment of addiction.

In addition to her work in the field of workers’ compensation, Angela has a passion for appellate work which she has cultivated into a burgeoning appellate practice across several areas of civil, administrative, and regulatory practice. Because of her expertise, trial counsel routinely enlist Angela’s services whether by taking over the handling and disposition of the entire matter on appeal, or by consulting and collaborating on appellate strategy, briefing, and preparing oral arguments.
