Yesterday, I received a call from a man from North Augusta, South Carolina, and he asked me the question, “How do you choose the best personal injury attorney for a case in South Carolina?” I shared with this gentleman the same tips that I’ll share with you.
I told the man it’s important to go interview the attorney personally and ask that attorney questions. Ask the attorney what kind of experience he has with South Carolina personal injury cases. Ask the attorney if personal injury is a core focus of his practice. Does the attorney have the resources to hire expert witnesses, such as accident reconstruction experts and doctors to treat the client? Ask the attorney if he’s a trial lawyer, if he tries cases, and what his track record is. Ask the attorney if he does focus groups on all cases going to trial.
I also shared with the gentleman that it’s important to do online research on a potential attorney in South Carolina. Look at the attorney’s online client reviews. Look at Google reviews, look at Avvo reviews, look at Facebook reviews, and see what past clients say about the attorney. Was the attorney effective? Was he diligent in pursuing the case? Also, look at online reviews from lawyer to lawyer. There are reviews services, such as Super Lawyer, Martindale-Hubbell, Top 100 High Stake Litigators, that let you see what other lawyers are saying about your potential lawyer. Is that lawyer a lawyer other lawyers respect?
