About Personal Injury in Charleston
Charleston spans a diverse mix of historic downtown neighborhoods like Harleston Village and Cannonborough-Elliotborough, newer West Ashley subdivisions, and waterfront communities on James Island and Daniel Island. The city's booming real estate market means title disputes involving antebellum-era deeds and heirs' property are far more common here than in inland South Carolina. Families relocating to master-planned communities along the Ashley River corridor often need contract review before signing builder agreements. Meanwhile, the port and tourism industries drive a steady volume of workers' compensation and personal injury cases tied to hotel, restaurant, and shipping employment.

Personal Injury in Charleston - Frequently Asked Questions
South Carolina allows three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to compensation, so contacting an attorney quickly protects critical evidence.
South Carolina requires uninsured motorist coverage, which may cover your injuries. Cornerstone Law Group reviews your own policy and pursues every available source of compensation, including the at-fault driver personally if assets exist.
Most Charleston car accident cases settle before trial. However, we prepare every case as if it will go before a jury, which consistently results in stronger settlement offers from insurance companies.
Compensation includes emergency room bills, future medical costs, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, property damage, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. We document every category thoroughly to maximize your recovery.
