Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation in South Carolina is supposed to be simple, but it isn’t. It’s a “no-fault” system, which means it doesn’t matter whether you were negligent or the company did everything perfectly. If you were injured on the job, you are generally entitled to benefits.
There’s a catch, though, that complicates things for injured workers: Insurance companies make most of the decisions, and their claims adjusters and attorneys deal with workers’ compensation claims all day, every day. In addition, there are significant defenses used by some employers and their insurance companies to avoid or minimize their responsibility.
Workers who try to go it alone can find themselves at a serious disadvantage. Our workers’ comp attorneys have handled thousands of cases, ranging from minor to life-altering injuries and death. We’ve helped thousands of employees get the medical and disability benefits they need and deserve.
