Every call with the adjuster is a chance for them to shrink your claim. With an attorney speaking for you from the beginning, your words can't be twisted into a smaller check.
Wreck injuries reveal themselves slowly — what feels like soreness today can be a herniated disc next month. We work with medical experts to document everything before you settle anything.
On two-lane highways and rural roads, proving fault often comes down to evidence that vanishes quickly. We investigate fast, secure the proof, and pin liability where it belongs.
Insurers push quick settlements because unpaid future costs become your problem, not theirs. We make sure every offer accounts for the treatment, income, and recovery still ahead of you.
First, make sure everyone is safe and call 911 if there are any injuries. Get a copy of the police report, exchange insurance information with the other driver, and document the scene with photos if you’re able. Seek medical attention right away — even if you feel fine — as some injuries don’t show symptoms immediately. Then contact an attorney before speaking with any insurance adjuster.
In South Carolina, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. While that may sound like plenty of time, evidence fades and witnesses become harder to reach the longer you wait. It’s always best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your claim.
South Carolina follows a “modified comparative negligence” rule, which means you can still recover compensation as long as you are less than 51% at fault for the accident. However, your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies often try to shift blame to reduce what they owe you — having an attorney on your side helps make sure fault is determined fairly.
