Selecting a Car Accident Lawyer in South Carolina

I had a nice couple from North Augusta, South Carolina, come to my office last week and ask me the question, “How do we find the best car accident attorney for our South Carolina case?” If you’re reading, you may have the same question. I’ll share with you what I shared with my clients last week. I think it’s important to meet with the potential attorney and ask the attorney questions. Ask the attorney about his experience with car wrecks. Are car wrecks a core focus of his practice? Does he have the resources to hire experts for accident reconstruction issues and potential medical specialists? Does this attorney try cases, and do insurance companies take this attorney more serious as a result of these trials? Does this attorney conduct focus groups, and have juries consider issues of the case before going to trial?

Another tip that I shared with this couple was to do online research of the potential attorney. Look at client reviews. Look at Facebook. Look at Google review, Avvo reviews. Look at lawyer reviews of the potential attorney, as well. Other lawyers rate attorneys in Super Lawyers, Martindale-Hubble, and 100 Best Lawyers in America. Other lawyers rate lawyers in a service called 100 High Stakes Litigators, too. See what other lawyers are saying about this lawyer. Is he respected by his peers?
