Personal Injury / Auto Accidents
If you’ve been injured due to negligence or intent to harm, we are ready to fight for your rights. Your responsibilities don’t stop if you get hurt.

We can help you create a successful strategy to get your compensation.
Workers’ Compensation
On-the-job injuries can be traumatic and discouraging. We’ll help you collect the workers’ compensation you’re entitled to. If you’ve been hurt while on the job, you may be eligible for payment for medical expenses and lost earnings. South Carolina has laws created to provide financial protection to workers who are injured on the job. We’re here to guide you through necessary documentation and legal obstacles to help you obtain maximum benefits.
