The Truth About What You Should Know Before Hiring a Personal Injury Lawyer

The Legal Truth

In this episode of The Legal Truth, Dirk Derrick and co-host Pearl Carey, on the firm’s professional staff, answer common questions about hiring a personal injury lawyer in South Carolina. Relying on his 35 years of experience, Dirk highlights topics that clients should consider, such as who on the team will lead their case (the lawyer on file), what the typical payment structure is (contingency fees), and, at Derrick Law Firm, who gets the say on whether to pursue claims (“The client is the boss”). Ultimately, Dirk urges prospective clients to ask tough questions before hiring a firm so that both parties build a relationship based on trust.
