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 bicycle accident claim?
Answer:
Probably one of the biggest mistakes that people make before or if they don’t get an attorney after a bicycle accident, is, number one, not seeking legal help right away. That’s extremely important because you don’t want to give a statement to the insurance carrier or to the opposing party that could potentially damage your case.
Another pitfall for people involved in a bicycle accident is when they don’t follow their physician’s orders, or they don’t seek medical care and evaluation immediately. The longer they delay, the more room there is for the insurance company to create issues and fight their claim, and failing to follow physician’s orders is part of that. It’s very important to follow the doctor’s orders, not only just for their healing but also for their legal case.
Finally, and probably one of the biggest pitfalls that we see, is when someone doesn’t contact a trial attorney who routinely handles these types of cases and understands how they work, because then you have an attorney who’s just trying to handle their case on the side when they don’t really focus on these types of issues.
