Professional, experienced, and friendly. From the initial phone call, to the greeting at the office and the humbleness and care they show towards everyone. You earn trust and that they have absolutely did with me. Thank you for all your hard work and God bless ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Knowing what a group of persons think about a situation given a set of facts should be considered gold when trying to construct a case which involves a disparate group of common people thrust together evaluating those finite sets of facts.

Yes, it’s possible for you to collect compensation for damages in a truck accident even though you were partially at fault for the wreck. South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence system in personal injury cases. This system enables you to collect compensation from a driver whose negligence caused your accident and resultant damages but allows your award to be reduced according to your percentage of fault in the crash. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/faqs/comparative-fault-in-a-florence-south-carolina-truck-accident-south-carolina-truck-accident-lawy.cfm
A wrongful death claim is a legal action that surviving family members can bring against the person or entity responsible for their loved one’s untimely death. The law states that a wrongful death claim is, in essence, the personal injury claim that the deceased could have filed against the party who harmed him had he lived. In South Carolina, this type of claim is typically brought on behalf of a spouse and children. If there are no spouse or children, parents or other heirs could be eligible to file a claim. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/library/compensation-for-a-myrtle-beach-wrongful-death-claim.cfm
Your first priority after a boat wreck is to see to the safety of all passengers. Anyone who does not have a life jacket or flotation device should be given one. If you’re physically able to do so, you should first assist anyone who’s fallen into the water since the majority of boating accident fatalities result from drowning. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/faqs/what-to-do-after-a-south-carolina-boating-accident-south-carolina-boat-accident-lawyer.cfm
Yes, there is a statute of limitations for workers’ compensation claims in South Carolina, but it’s not the same as the statute that applies to personal injury claims. In many personal injury cases, you have three years to file a lawsuit (with some exceptions) against the party who caused your injury. For a work-related injury case, however, you generally may not file a lawsuit against your employer or a co-worker at any time. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/faqs/statute-of-limitations-for-sc-workers-compensation-claims.cfm
Premises liability law refers to the right for someone to file a lawsuit against a property owner if he or she sustained injuries while on the property. The injured party must prove negligence before the other side will consider making a settlement offer. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/library/myrtle-beach-premises-liability-attorneys-slip-and-fall.cfm
You might be able to sue a liable third party for a work-related injury without jeopardizing your workers’ comp claim. Because the two legal actions are completely separate, however, the process could get complicated. You’re most likely to get the compensation you need by working with an attorney. https://www.derricklawfirm.com/faqs/compensation-for-third-party-work-related-injuries.cfm

Yes, if you are an employee who sustains an injury while performing job duties at home, you are covered by SC workers’ compensation which almost every business with four or more employees is required to carry. You must, however, be able to convince your employer’s insurance company that your injury or illness is work-related.

The short answer is no. You can’t be denied benefits for a new claim because you’ve received worker’s compensation benefits in the past. Workers’ compensation is no-fault insurance that almost every South Carolina employer with four or more employees must carry. If you’re injured on the job or develop an illness from performing your duties, workers’ comp pays for: • Medical expenses • Two-thirds of lost wages • Vocational rehabilitation • Disability care • Death benefits It’s not necessary to prove your employer caused your accident or illness. If it occurred in the course of your work, you’re entitled to benefits—and you can’t be fired for filing a claim.
Yes, it’s possible that you can be terminated—but not in retaliation for filing a workers’ compensation claim. Worker’s comp is no-fault insurance for any accidental injury or occupational illness you might suffer while performing your job duties. It covers your medical expenses and provides temporary monetary benefits lost due to being taken out of work for recovery. Your employer may not penalize you for filing a legitimate workers’ comp claim. For more information about your workers’ comp claim, speak to an experienced attorney at The Derrick Law Firm today.

If you’re a victim seriously injured in an accident caused by someone else, the very fact that it wasn’t your fault is the reason you need an attorney. Without one, you might end up stuck with economic damages that should be paid by the at-fault driver: Medical expenses Property damage Lost wages Call today for a free case review at 843-248-7486.
