We believe that your life changes forever when you’re seriously injured or when you lose a loved one. Economic hardship often follows the pain and suffering accompanying traumatic events.

WRONGFUL DEATH

You have our deepest sympathies if you’re grieving a loved one. We can help you and your family seek justice by filing a wrongful death action. In those cases, the individual overseeing the decedent’s estate (called a personal representative, executor, or administrator) files a claim for damages that may include:

  • Compensation for pain and suffering, mental shock, wounded feelings, grief, and sorrow;

  • Funeral expenses;

  • Loss of companionship;

  • Economic losses suffered by the family; and

  • Punitive damages for a defendant’s willful, wanton, or reckless actions.

Generally speaking, in South Carolina, you must bring a wrongful death claim within three years from your loved one’s death. In North Carolina, you have two years. There are (of course) exceptions to these rules. Either way, it’s best to act quickly to protect your rights.

ELECTRIC INJURIES

Electricity is essential to our everyday life. But electric current can burn, permanently disfigure, and even kill you. The Mayo Clinic says that the danger from an electrical shock depends on the type of current, how high the voltage is, how the current traveled through the body, the victim’s overall health, and how quickly he or she is treated.

Depending on the case, electrical injuries can involve premises-liability, negligence, recklessness, and workers’ compensation claims. You may recover damages for pain and suffering, disfigurement, lost wages, and medical bills. Electrical shock or burn cases may include investigations into the property owner’s compliance with city and county codes. They may also necessitate the use of an expert witness.
