Faced with a South Carolina Brain Injury

How to I Find a Brain Injury Attorney in South Carolina?

The Law Offices of Anastopoulo & Clore, LLC explain what to look for when searching for a lawyer to handle your brain injuries claim.

An experienced brain injury attorney should possess knowledge of the symptoms associated with traumatic brain injury and an understanding of brain physiology and function. A qualified brain injury lawyer should also:

• Have the experience needed to identify the important medical issues in your case and know what type of medical experts which will be required. Additionally, your head injury attorney should be familiar with those experts and have the financial resources to retain them to provide testimony in your case.
• Be an experienced civil trial lawyer with litigation experience and the negotiation skills needed to successfully settle your case or win compensation in a court trial.
• Represent you on a contingency basis, meaning that they will be paid based on the percentage of the net damages after the case is settled or a judgment is awarded at trial. A contingency fee benefits the client by enabling him or her to retain the best possible representation without having to worry about the cost. Your attorney should have the ability to incur the expenses associated with the case, which often can exceed $25,000.
• Be sensitive to your concerns and answer your questions. Do not under estimate the importance of a working relationship with your attorney; you should feel comfortable with your attorney and feel confident that he or she is doing their absolute best to represent your interests.
• Have received continued education in handling brain injury cases and have an affiliation in organizations relating to TBI. Perhaps your South Carolina head injury attorney has addressed an audience on brain injury legal issues or has written articles on the topic; your lawyer may have been in the news for attaining a large TBI settlement or judgment. Perhaps your attorney has received awards for his or her achievements in brain injury law.
• Have past case verdicts to share with you to demonstrate their success in achieving maximum compensation for their clients in previous TBI cases.
• Provide testimonials from previous clients that can attest to the attorney’s service and success with TBI cases.
