A workplace injury can disrupt your life in an instant leaving you in pain, out of work, and uncertain about the future. While workers' compensation exists to support injured employees, many find themselves facing unexpected denials, endless delays, or retaliation from their employers. Many injured workers also have claims against third-parties for their injuries that provide for recovery under civil negligence laws.
South Carolina law protects injured workers. If your employer or its insurer is standing in the way of your recovery, you need a lawyer who knows how to fight back. You shouldn’t have to struggle for the benefits you’ve earned – we’ll help you secure the protection and compensation you are entitled to under the law.
A workplace injury shouldn’t mean delayed medical treatment and financial hardship but, all too often, employers and insurers make it a battle just to get what’s rightfully yours. And often times injured workers don’t realize they have claims against at-fault third-parties.
