Practice Areas: Workers Compensation
I became a lawyer to help people who have been injured. The only thing worse than a legal problem is a medical problem, and my highest goal is to help my clients obtain the best medical care available in the state of South Carolina. My next goal is to do everything possible to help my clients obtain all of the other benefits they may be entitled to, such as financial compensation, future medical care benefits, and other entitlements.. My wife is a Spanish instructor at the University of South Carolina. We have two young children, and three dogs. We live in West Columbia, South Carolina.
