Experienced Personal Injury Representation

In addition to injuries incurred at the workplace or because of a defective product, individuals may be harmed because of the negligence of another person.

In South Carolina, people who have been injured as a result of another's negligence may have a right to be compensated with monetary damages for their losses. Victims of negligence may recover for such things as bodily injuries, physical pain and suffering, mental anguish, disfigurement, permanent injuries, inconvenience, medical expenses and lost wages.
