      See what our past clients have to say about us.

      Everyone there was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. My car was totaled, and I was a little intimidated talking with a couple of other lawyers in Greenville. But with Christian and Christian, not only did they answer my questions, but they did so in a way that made what could have been a hectic situation, easy. Overall, an excellent experience with high quality lawyers who truly go above and beyond and really try to get you the results or answers you need.

      I met Josh like 4 years ago when my Son was injured at Daycare. He was very concerned about the well being of my Child and Me. Very Understanding Professional and Just a great Staff. If You need a Lawyer that’s all about YOU this is the Place. I just closed a Case on 6/23/2021 from a injury on a Property. They handled everything because no one else would help Me. I’m forever grateful for Your hard Work and Time. Once again Thank You Josh and Sally.

      My husband was referred to this law firm from another lawyer after his mother passed away while residing in a nursing home. Matt took on his case and we are pleased with how everything turned out. It took a long, long time to finally settle, but it was worth the wait. The staff here is friendly and I’d be happy to recommend them to anyone needing legal assistance.

      I was referred to Harold by a family friend, and I couldn’t be happier. He took the time to listen to my case, answered all my questions and truly treated me like a friend not a client. His knowledge of medical malpractice is priceless he actually successfully won, one of the first medical malpractice cases in Greenville County.

      Question:

      What are some common mistakes to avoid after a workers’ comp claim?

      Answer:

      When people contact us with a workers’ compensation claim when they’ve been injured on the job, one of the biggest mistakes we’ve seen them make is they’re afraid to report it to their supervisor. If you don’t report that right away, then very often they use that as a defense against your claim to say maybe you got hurt at work after that, or just to say that you’re not entitled to make a claim after a certain period of time. The law requires you to report that claim within 90 days. If you don’t do that, your claim will be forever foreclosed.

      The second mistake that people make is when they go to their employer, they say, “Maybe I’ll be okay,” because they’re afraid their employer will be upset with them because now they’ve got to report that to their insurance company. That’s okay. It doesn’t hurt your employer; they have insurance for that purpose. You need to get medical care. If you need medical care, tell your employer you need treatment. Go to the doctor.
