Our article library is an educational resource for inured people and their families. These articles are filled with answers - not legal jargon - to questions you may have about a nursing home injury case. As an attorney, I believe my responsibilities extend far beyond the courtroom. For I am not only an advocate, but a counselor. I also possess the unique opportunity to provide my fellow South Carolinians with a great deal of information concerning their legal rights and responsibilities.
I hope you find this information both useful and thought-provoking. Should you have any questions after reading one of the articles, please contact me at (803) 790-2800. I am always glad to discuss the law, as well as the solutions it may provide.
