Moncks Corner Car Wreck Lawyer
Any kind of car crash, from a deadly fireball wreck on a highway to a fender-bender on a side street, is the start of a downward spiral that, in many cases, seems endless. As they try to recover from their injuries, most people cannot work, and unpaid medical bills pile up. The extreme financial stress creates physical stress, which makes their injuries more difficult (and more expensive) to treat, and the downward spiral continues.
The Moncks Corner car wreck lawyer at The Stanley Law Group works hard every day to change the victim’s circumstances for the better. That downward spiral did not appear overnight, and it will not disappear overnight. But a partnership with an experienced lawyer truly begins the healing process. Attorneys connect victims with doctors who, in most cases, charge nothing upfront for their professional services. At the same time, attorneys run interference with insurance companies, so victims can concentrate on getting better.
Why Should I Hire a Moncks Corner Car Wreck Lawyer?
Attorneys put people on the right path going forward. At this point, that’s the best anyone can do. No one can turn back the clock and change what happened in the past.
Compensation is an important part of this recovery process. Quite frankly, car crash victims need money to put their lives back together. Attorneys obtain compensation for economic losses, such as medical bills, and noneconomic losses, such as pain and suffering.
A partnership with a lawyer is an investment, and this investment almost always pays off. The average attorney-negotiated car accident settlement is over three times higher than the average non-attorney-negotiated settlement.
The tortfeasor (negligent driver) is not financially responsible for this settlement, or any other litigation-related costs, at least in most cases. Typically, an insurance company covers all these expenses. So, a car crash settlement is nothing like a criminal fine, at least in this respect.
However, tortfeasors are individually responsible for the injuries they cause. You break it, you buy it. If everyone voluntarily accepted responsibility for their mistakes, South Carolina would be an even better place to live.
Sometimes, a third party is responsible for a crash. An alcohol-related wreck is a good example. If a commercial provider, like a restaurant, illegally sold alcohol to someone who caused a car crash, that provider is responsible for the wreck.
In South Carolina, it’s illegal for commercial providers to sell alcohol to people who are visibly intoxicated. Other illegal sales include unlicensed and underage sales.
How Do I Hire the Right Lawyer?
This process is easier than you think. We mentioned one important quality (experience) above. Only an experienced lawyer with a successful track record can obtain maximum compensation for your serious injuries. The Stanley Law Group has been helping victims for over thirty years.
Other important qualities to look for include accessibility and dedication. Attorneys should never hide behind staff members or less-experienced associates when clients have comments or questions. Furthermore, only a dedicated lawyer is with you until the end of the line.
At The Stanley Law Group, your lawyer is primarily responsible for all the work done on your case. Additionally, we dedicate our practice to personal injury and other areas of law that make a difference for families in the Charleston area.
