How Can Hammack Law Firm Help You Manage Your Case?

Attorney Paul Hammack has spent the last 19 years working inside the insurance industry defending personal injury lawsuits, so he understands the thought processes of insurers involved in personal injury cases. As a Spartanburg personal injury lawyer, he is uniquely positioned to push insurance companies toward a favorable settlement on his client’s behalf. Paul knows what to do to get top dollar for you, and the insurers know he is willing to go to trial to get it. Paul has taken over 40 cases to trial and is not afraid of litigation or rude insurance companies.

That makes Hammack Law Firm one of the few law practices you can turn to for an insider’s perspective on your case. Paul believes in aggressively going after every penny that his clients are owed, and his vision of justice defines a standard of excellence for our firm.

We know that insurance litigation is tough on “the little guy.” Like any business, insurance companies want to protect their own financial interests by minimizing their payouts after an injury. But victims need a voice, too. Having flipped both sides of that coin, Attorney Paul Hammack knows how to get his clients where they need to be and the compensation they deserve.

You need someone to help guide you through that process, and you can count on us. Let us help you through this complex legal process. We can assess your options, develop a plan, investigate your injuries, build a case, file your claim, and navigate the entire process on your behalf. You focus on healing while we take care of recovering compensation and getting your attention back to your family and loved ones.

How Do We Help Individuals and Businesses Alike?

In every personal injury lawsuit, there is someone who is suffering and someone who believes the suffering should not be pinned on them. Attorney Paul Hammack understands that fundamental tension, and he is prepared to bring his unique legal talents to either side of the equation.

Every story has two sides.

When you hire Hammack Law Firm, you can rest assured that we will proceed exclusively in your best interest.

We’ve been in the plaintiff’s camp. We’ve been in the defendant’s camp. We know what your story looks like from the other side, and we’ll use that invaluable insight to advance your claim and obtain the best possible outcome.

With decades of experience behind him, Mr. Hammack knows the strategies that produce favorable settlements and/or judgments for his clients. He’s ready to fight hard for what you need.

What if You Are Partially Liable?

People are often mistaken about their ability to seek compensation when they are partially responsible for the accident that led to their injuries. This may be because of popular true crime shows or even because of posturing from the insurance company.

South Carolina laws allow residents to pursue compensation even if they are partially responsible for their accident under something called “modified comparative negligence.” In South Carolina, as long as you are less than 51% liable for an accident, you can recover damages.

You should be aware that modified comparative negligence may lead to you receiving less compensation if you are partially liable for your accident. If you are found to be 30% liable for your accident, you will receive 30% less compensation.

Are Some Cases Too Big or Too Small?

Hammack Law Firm is prepared to handle even the most sophisticated personal injury cases. In fact, we have extensive and specific experience in handling catastrophic accident claims, including brain injuries, injuries that have left our client disabled, and wrongful death claims.

Many of our most compelling cases have arisen in the context of truck accident litigation. Tractor trailers and other commercial trucks can cause horrific devastation, and the victims often walk away with terrible, life-long injuries. Many do not survive. If you want a Spartanburg truck accident attorney who will fight to get you the compensation you are due, call Paul Hammack Law Firm at 864-766-7108.

Paul is also an experienced admiralty and maritime lawyer. Hammack Law Firm has the experience and knowledge to handle the most complex Spartanburg boat, water skiing, tubing, or jet ski accidents. He knows the maritime law that can affect your rights to a jury trial and punitive damages.

Even everyday auto accidents can cause serious harm. Broken bones, brain damage, soft tissue injury, disfigurement, and wrongful death all rank among the most common injuries in Spartanburg auto accidents. Motorcycle accidents, bicycle accidents, boating accidents, and virtually any other vehicle can lead to terrible hardships and life-altering injuries.

No two accidents are just alike. Whatever your injuries look like, Hammack Law Firm can help. Even if you have unusually medically sophisticated damages, our team is up to the task.

At Hammack Law Firm, you’ll find a Spartanburg personal injury attorney with experience in virtually every area of tort law, including:

With legal representation, you will have a deeper understanding of your options and rights. Our firm is ready to take your case and immediately develop a legal strategy to get the maximum compensation you are owed.

What Compensation Can Hammack Law Firm Recover For You?

While each case is unique and has its own details and value, many share similar circumstances or causes. Because our lawyers have such a wide range of experiences, you can feel confident that we have likely managed a similar case or many similar cases and have a comprehensive understanding of your legal options and the best approach to recover appropriate compensation.

For example, imagine you suffered injuries in a truck accident when the tractor-trailer had a tire failure. It turns out that the tire had not been properly maintained and air pressures checked regularly because someone was cutting corners. We could have several potentially liable parties in this case, including the trucking company, the driver, and the tire manufacturer, if there was a defect, and the company responsible for the truck’s tire maintenance. We could look back on similar cases to determine the necessary evidence to build a case against each party and analyze the strength of each. Because our firm has worked on the side of insurance companies, we know what defenses their attorneys will try to bring forward.

We have also represented clients who suffered a wide range of injuries, including those whose lives were permanently disrupted by their injuries. These injuries are in one of two categories: economic damages and non-economic damages. They can be broken down like this:

Economic Damages

These are objective, easily verifiable damages suffered as a result of injuries caused by someone else’s negligence or reckless behavior. Your attorney will use documentation like medical bills, receipts, and repair invoices to prove these losses. They may include

  • Medical bills and future treatment and care costs
  • Lost income they missed while recovering
  • Loss of earning potential as a result of their injuries
  • Property damages, such as repairing or replacing your car and the property within it
  • Additional out-of-pocket costs for necessary expenses, such as home modifications for accessibility
  • Loss of services they could previously perform, such as routine home maintenance and care

Non-Economic Damages

These damages are considered “subjective.” They are harder to prove or assign a monetary value because they don’t come with verifiable proof. We understand that to you, the impact of your injuries isn’t subjective. They may include the following:

  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress like anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Diminished quality of life
  • The effect it had on personal relationships like spouses and close family members

Which of these damages can you pursue in your personal injury claim? That is part of the personal injury claim process your Spartanburg personal injury lawyer will use. You don’t have to know which damages you will seek; we will investigate your case, evaluate your options, and implement a plan.

Some of the benefits of hiring legal representation don’t have anything to do with your compensation. We will take over correspondence for you. If you are tired of dealing with aggressive insurance companies, shady businesses trying to protect their bottom line, or attorneys who attempt to use legal jargon to intimidate you, you can count on Hammack Law Firm to take over communication. We aren’t afraid of them, and we know the tactics they use.

How Affordable Are Hammack Law Firm’s Legal Services for Spartanburg Personal Injury Victims?

Our lawyers do not require a retainer or charge by the hour. There are no upfront costs or fees to get started on your case. All we ask is that you sign an agreement to pay us a percentage of the compensation we recover on your behalf. If you do not win your case, we will not charge you any fees.

We use our resources to handle the development of your claim and managing the legal process, including filing your claim or taking the case to trial. Throughout this time, you can use your money to pay your household bills and manage other expenses without worry. You will not receive a bill for our attorney’s fees until your case is settled.

After the conclusion of your case, whether it settles out of court or goes to trial, we receive the check for compensation. We take our agreed-on fees and costs and then deliver the rest to you and your family as quickly as possible. You never have to worry about paying us out of your personal account. We take care of it all.
