South Carolina General Litigation Attorney
Legal issues can compromise both professional and personal relationships, oftentimes causing irreparable damage. While only a small portion of legal disputes will require court intervention, you need to consult with an experienced general litigation attorney.
Not all issues can be resolved through discussing the matter in private. If your legal matter requires the services of knowledgeable counsel, our South Carolina general litigation attorney is ready to assist you.
General Litigation Cases We Handle
At Isaacs & Alley, LLC, we handle the following general litigation cases:
- Business disputes: Breaches of contract, insurance disputes, and employment issues
- Construction disputes: Construction defect claims, warranty claims, and payment disputes, etc.
- Personal injury claims: Car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, rideshare accidents (Uber and Lyft), work accidents, and wrongful death claims
Limitation on Recovery Period
Under South Carolina law, an individual only has three years to take legal action for personal injury, contract disputes, and wrongful death claims. Known as a statute of limitations, the legislature imposes this legal “clock” to ensure that evidence, both physical and testimonial, is preserved. Once three years have passed, physical evidence may begin to deteriorate, and witnesses’ memories may become foggy.
There are exceptions to the statute of limitations, which would allow a person more time to pursue legal action. These legal exceptions can be complicated, making someone unsure if they have missed the deadline.
You need to discuss your case with an attorney, even if you believe that the statute of limitations has passed, since there may be an exclusion in your given situation.
Role of a General Litigation Attorney
When you hire our South Carolina general litigation attorney, you are hiring someone to advocate on your behalf. Our firm understands that your time is valuable, so we will make every effort to resolve your case promptly and efficiently.
Many people do not understand the role that a general litigation attorney takes on. Besides offering you legal advice, we ensure that the appropriate documentation is filed meeting court deadlines, and that all necessary evidence is brought to light.
The law defines an expert witness as a person whose “knowledge, skill, experience, training, or education” makes them an expert in their field. Besides interviewing lay witnesses, we have our own network of expert witnesses which may help strengthen your case.
When you hire experienced counsel, you ensure that your case will have the most successful outcome possible. A litigation attorney will gather the necessary evidence and take down witness testimony to build your case. Once all pertinent information has been gathered, a litigation attorney will know how to formulate the strongest arguments, as well as the weaknesses in the opposing party’s case.
