Premises Liability / Slip & Fall
Premises Liability Attorneys Serving North Charleston & Summerville, South Carolina
Premises Liability Attorneys
When we are on someone else’s property, we have the right to expect the area is free from hazards. Still, countless people are injured each year because property owners allow hazardous conditions to go unchecked. In fact, we handled one of the leading premises liability cases in the South Carolina Supreme Court.
Property owners and the companies that maintain their property can be held liable for the injuries victims suffer. If you have been injured while lawfully on someone else’s property, contact an attorney immediately. We represent clients in a wide variety of premises liability cases and view them as far more than the minor “slip-and-fall” matters insurers try to label them.

Being attacked by a dog or another animal is one of the most terrifying experiences anyone can endure.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is a property owner responsible for my injury?
A property owner — and the company that maintains the property — can be held responsible when they allow a hazardous condition to go unchecked and you are injured while lawfully on the property.
How long do I have to file a premises liability claim in South Carolina?
Generally three years from the date of injury, with shorter deadlines and notice requirements when a government entity is involved. It is best to contact us promptly so your deadlines are protected.
What if I was partially at fault for my fall?
South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence rule, so you may still recover as long as you were not more than 50% at fault, with your award reduced by your share of responsibility.
How much does it cost to hire a premises liability lawyer?
We handle these cases on a contingency-fee basis. There is no upfront fee, and you pay an attorney’s fee only if we recover compensation for you.
