Types of Injury Cases We Handle
Car Accidents
We focus on car accidents. Whether it's a relatively minor rear end collision or a serious car crash, we will thoroughly investigate the incident, gather evidence, and help you receive the compensation you deserve from the insurance company.
Slip-and-Falls
Slip-and-falls happen unexpectedly typically as a result of property owners failing to maintain safe premises. From wet floors to uneven sidewalk, to debris on the floor, we will work to prove liability and help ensure you are compensated for your injuries.
5 Important Steps After A Car Accident
Seek medical attention immediately after your accident
Even if you think you feel okay, injuries can show up days after an accident. A doctor can check for hidden issues such as concussions or internal injuries. Getting treatment right away also creates a medical record which is important for your claim.
Don't speak to insurance companies
Insurance companies may try to get you to say something that could hurt your claim or have you settle for less money than you deserve. It's better to have your attorney handle the conversation to help protect your rights.
Document Everything
Take pictures of the accident scene, your injuries, vehicle damage, etc. as long as you can do so safely. Collect police reports, witness contact information, and keep a list of your doctors, chiropractor, and medical treatments. A detailed record will help strengthen your case and help us prove what happened.
Focus on Healing
Your recovery is the top priority. While you focus on healing, we'll handle the investigation, speak with the insurance company, and focus on the legal work. And, we'll meet you where your comfortable - whether virtually, at a coffee shop, or at your home - so you don't have to discuss your injuries in an uncomfortable conference room.
Statute of Limitations
Keep the statute of limitations in mind for filing a personal injury claim. In South Carolina it is three years. This means you have three years from the date of your accident to file a lawsuit. You want to get started as soon as possible so we have enough time to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company before having to take the step of filing a lawsuit.

We’re here to help you navigate the next steps so you can focus on healing.

The sooner we can gather evidence and understand your case, the better your chances are of getting the compensation you deserve.
