Choosing a Myrtle Beach Car Accident Attorney
You have a lot of options when choosing a Myrtle Beach car accident lawyer, so how do you narrow down your choices? We think you should focus on these key areas:
Experience
You don’t want to be a lawyer’s first car accident case. Look for a firm that has been in business for a long time and has successfully resolved hundreds of cases like yours.
Resources
Investigating a car crash and negotiating with an insurance company require time and attention. You want a law firm with the resources to conduct a thorough investigation and with connections to the local insurance and legal communities.
Location
If your crash happened in Myrtle Beach, you want a lawyer who knows Myrtle Beach. Firms across South Carolina will be willing to take your case, but a local lawyer can offer advantages that out-of-towners can’t.
Personality
You must be able to communicate freely with your legal team and to trust them. Finding a law firm that offers a free initial consultation will give you the opportunity to meet the attorneys with no obligation to hire them and decide if they are a good fit for you. At the Derrick Law Firm, we offer free initial consultations and any costs and attorney's fees associate we your case, should you chose to hire our Firm, will be deducted from any settlement or award you receive.
