What do you get for your attorney’s fee?

Most personal injury cases are handled on a contingency-fee basis, which means you pay no attorney’s fee unless we recover compensation for you. The fee is a percentage of the recovery, agreed upon in writing at the outset. Along the way, our attorneys and paralegals investigate the facts, gather evidence and records, handle communications with the insurance companies, negotiate on your behalf, and — when necessary — take your case to trial. We will go over the specific terms with you during your consultation.

What is the statute of limitations to file a personal injury claim in South Carolina?

In South Carolina, the general statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury, but important exceptions can shorten or change that window. Claims against government entities, for example, carry much shorter deadlines and stricter notice requirements. Because missing a deadline can bar your claim entirely, it is best to contact us as soon as possible so we can confirm the deadlines that apply to your specific situation.

What information do you need from me to get started?

It helps to bring whatever information you already have about the incident: how and when it happened, the names and contact details of those involved and any witnesses, photographs, any police or incident reports, the names of your insurance company and any other carriers, and records or bills from the medical treatment you have received. If you do not have all of this, that is perfectly fine — we will help you gather what is needed.

What types of injury cases does your firm handle?

We represent injured individuals and consumers in a wide range of matters, including automobile, motorcycle, and tractor-trailer collisions, wrongful death, workers’ compensation, premises liability, product liability, medical negligence, and employment matters such as discrimination and harassment. If you are not sure whether you have a case, contact us and we will let you know how we can help.

What is my personal injury or insurance claim worth?

Every case is different, and the value depends on factors such as the nature and severity of your injuries, your medical treatment and future care needs, lost income and earning capacity, the impact on your daily life, and the insurance coverage available. We evaluate each of these factors carefully rather than relying on a formula. Past results are not a guarantee of any particular outcome, so the best way to understand your claim’s potential value is to speak with us directly.

On average, how long does it take before a settlement or trial is reached?

Timelines vary widely depending on the complexity of the case, the extent of your injuries and treatment, and whether the case settles or proceeds to trial. Some claims resolve in a matter of months, while others — particularly those that go to court — can take considerably longer. We work diligently to move your case forward efficiently while making sure it is fully prepared and that you are not pressured into an inadequate settlement.
