Answers Before You Even Call

How much does it cost to hire Heist Law?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee, which means you pay us nothing unless we win your case. Our fee comes out of the settlement or verdict — never out of your pocket. The initial consultation is always free.
What is my personal injury case worth?
Every case is different. The value depends on your medical bills, lost wages, the severity of your injuries, and how the accident has affected your life. The best way to find out is a free consultation — we’ll give you an honest assessment based on the facts.
How long do I have to file a claim in South Carolina?
In most South Carolina personal injury cases, the statute of limitations is three years from the date of the accident — but some claims have shorter deadlines, and evidence disappears fast. Don’t wait. Call us as soon as possible so we can protect your rights.
Do I have to go to court?
Most cases settle without a trial. But we prepare every case as if it’s going to court — that’s what gets insurance companies to take you seriously. If a fair settlement isn’t offered, we’re fully prepared to fight for you at trial.
What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
You may still recover. South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence rule — as long as you’re not more than 50% at fault, you can still recover compensation, reduced by your share of the blame. Don’t assume you have no case; let us review the facts.
What if I can’t afford medical care right now?
We can help. We work with trusted local medical providers who will often treat you now and wait for payment until your case resolves. Getting proper care quickly is good for your health and your claim — we’ll help you find it.
How long will my case take?
It depends on the complexity of your case and the severity of your injuries. Some claims settle in a few months; others involving serious injuries take longer. We move as efficiently as possible while never settling for less than your case is worth, and we keep you updated throughout.
¿Hablan español? (Do you speak Spanish?)
Sí. Atendemos a la comunidad hispanohablante de Charleston. Si usted o un ser querido resultó herido en un accidente, llámenos — le ayudaremos en español. Yes — we proudly serve the Spanish-speaking community.
