Goose Creek, South Carolina Injury Attorneys

Goose Creek, South Carolina Personal Injury Attorneys

If you have been injured in an accident, you may be able to recover monetary damages from those who were responsible for your injuries. However, you only get one chance to bring a Goose Creek personal injury case against a negligent party. Thus, choosing which Goose Creek personal injury law firm to represent you is a crucial decision. While you do not technically need an attorney to bring a personal injury case, those accident victims who retain an experienced injury lawyer fare better than those who take it on alone.

Clients hire the Steinberg Law Firm because we have been trusted members of the Goose Creek community for more than 85 years. We proudly apply the same level of care and conviction to every client we serve. Whether we are handling a workers’ compensation claim, car accident case, or other personal injury matter, we treat every case as professionally and carefully as we can. We are here to serve you, and our experienced attorneys work hard to get the justice and compensation you deserve under the law.

Who receives compensation after a Goose Creek Injury

According to a recent study, 70 percent of personal injury plaintiffs received some form of compensation, whether through settlement or trial.

• 96 percent of these cases were resolved through a pre-trial settlement agreement.

The amount each plaintiff received for their injuries was as follows:

• 16 percent of accident victims received less than $3,000
• 37 percent of accident victims received between $3,000 and $10,000
• 21 percent of accident victims received between $10,001 and $25,000
• 10 percent of accident victims received between $25,001 and $75,000
• 16 percent of accident victims received more than $75,001

On average, those accident victims represented by attorneys fared better than those who were unrepresented:

• 91 percent of accident victims who were represented by an attorney received compensation
• 51 percent of accident victims who were not represented by an attorney received compensation

For those accident victims who obtained compensation for their injuries, the average amount was higher for those represented by an attorney:

• The average recovery for accident victims represented by an attorney: $77,600
• The average compensation for unrepresented accident victims: $17,600

Accident victims who accepted the first settlement offer obtained significantly less compensation for their injuries:

• Accident victims who accepted the first settlement: $11,800
• Accident victims who accepted a subsequent settlement offer: $42,500
