If you or a loved one has been injured due to the negligence or fault of another you may be eligible to receive compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and other losses. At The Law Offices of James R. Snell, Jr., our personal injury attorneys stand ready to assist those in need. There is no cost to have your case evaluated or your questions answered by us. We even offer no-cost home and hospital visits to meet with injured people. Evening and weekend appointments are also available.
We represent those in Lexington, Columbia and throughout South Carolina with putting the pieces of their life back together after a serious injury. Our practice areas include all types of injuries, including those arising from automobile accidents, truck accidents, defective and dangerous products, dog bites, workplace injuries or wrongful death. We have represented those suffering from broken bones, burn injuries, permanent scarring, back and spinal injuries, permanent impairment and loss of life.
After a serious accident the at fault party, or their insurance company, may quickly spring into action to attempt to “mitigate their losses.” The role of an insurance adjuster or investigator is not to see that you are properly and fairly compensated for your injury, but rather to see that as little money as possible is paid to settle your case. They may want you to settle quickly, before you have realized the full extent of your loss or had the opportunity to consult with an attorney. You should not speak with the insurance company until you have first spoken with an attorney.
Even if your claim has been denied, disputed or dragged out by an insurance company we can help. Many times even in cases with serious and substantial injury and clear responsibility, the insurance company may deny coverage altogether, or only offer a small amount, in an effort to pay out as little as possible. Even if you have been working with an insurance adjuster to try to settle your own claim, you owe it to yourself and your family to consult with one of our personal injury attorneys before agreeing to any settlement figures or signing any documents.
You owe it to your family and yourself to make sure that your rights are protected and that you receive full and fair compensation for your injuries. It only takes a minute to have your life turned upside down by an injury. Hiring the Law Office of James R. Snell, Jr., to protect your rights and advocate for you is the first step in putting your life back together.
Most personal injury cases are accepted on a contingency basis, meaning that there is no fee unless you actually recovery for your injuries. Attorney’s fees are calculated as a percentage of the recovery prior to any costs or expenses being subtracted. There is no fee or obligation for meeting with us to have your case evaluated.
