introduction
Our primary focus involves work-related issues arising from on-the-job accidents, repetitive trauma, occupational diseases, exposure to chemicals or other toxins, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury. We have participated in hundreds of workers’ compensation hearings over the years. We have experience with catastrophic cases involving permanent brain injury, spinal cord injury, paralysis, and paraplegia.
Our emphasis on job-related claims led us into our other practice areas, Immigration, Social Security Disability, and Brain Injury. We have handled numerous Social Security Hearings and Immigration matters. Because of the growing number of Hispanic clients we serve, we have a Spanish speaking paralegal devoted to assisting with their cases. Se Habla Español.
For more than 10 years, we have been recognized by Martindale-Hubbell with an AV rating, the highest rating for legal ability and ethical standards. Since our firm was founded, we have been listed every year in A.M. Best’s Directory of Recommended Insurance Attorneys. We also received a “Superb” rating from AVVO, an online lawyer rating service. Our lawyers’ memberships include the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Educational Association, the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the South Carolina Bar Workers’ Compensation Section, the Greenville County Bar, the South Carolina Bar, the State Bar of Georgia, and the North Carolina State Bar.
We want to help our clients better understand the challenges and opportunities presented by their particular situation, keep them informed throughout the process and achieve successful results. Our clients’ interests come first. Flexible fee arrangements, including contingency fees, flat fees, hourly billing, and value based billing are available.
