Experienced Personal Injury Lawyer Serving South Carolina
At Patrick E. Knie Law Offices, Spartanburg, South Carolina, I represent individuals who suffer serious injuries from motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, birth injuries, and other forms of negligent conduct. Deciding what, exactly, is negligence is a large part of each personal injury lawsuit.
Each case is unique and the legal definition of negligence that applies is unique as well. Usually, someone is negligent if they failed to use the standard of care that another reasonable person would have used in a similar situation. If that negligence led to damages — things like physical or emotional harm or destruction of property — the negligent person should pay for them.
As an attorney with more than 30 years of experience, I have helped the victims of personal injury reclaim their lives by holding negligent actors accountable for the harm they caused in a wide range of situations:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Trucking accidents
- Roadway hazards
- Injuries caused by drunk drivers
- Dangerous and defective products
- Mesothelioma
- Medical malpractice
When It's More than a Workers' Comp Issue
When you have been hurt at work, many people will tell you that workers' compensation is the only way to get compensation for the injuries you've received. This simply isn't true. There are hundreds of ways that on the job injuries can happen. Sometimes they are caused by defective machinery. Other times, a third party — like an independent contractor or machinery manufacturer — is truly to blame for the harm.
At Patrick E. Knie Law Offices, I begin handling your case by in-depth investigation of all the facts and laws involved. My investigations often turn up the details that are critical to winning or successfully settling lawsuits in South Carolina.
