The book is very informative and helpful in that it lets you know what rights you have as an injured party. I was seeking information for a person that I know that had some questions and this book really helped. This book is also very helpful for me in case I ever get into an accident. It has a lot of information that people generally do not know and can use to avoid mistakes.

I actually listened to it in the car. As the CD was playing I found myself driving more defensively and being more observant of those around me.
I believe that you should give this to all new drivers as part of drivers' education.

The information in this book provides appropriate caution for an individual who is injured in an accident. The point about watching out for insurance adjusters is clearly made. Further, the responsibility for an injured person's well being rests with that person, so competent, professional guidance and assistance from a personal injury attorney is a wise choice!

The South Carolina Accident Book is the most informative book I have read on the law in South Carolina on accidents and how to recover if you are not at fault in an accident. The only thing better than the book would be hiring a lawyer from Shelly Leeke Law Firm.

The South Carolina Accident Book is very informative. The only reason I didn't give the book 5 stars is because I have one question:
"What happens if you had no injuries, but were falsely accused of failing to yield the right of way when you are parked?

"This book is a must read. As a personal injury lawyer in Pennsylvania, I know all too well that consumers are misinformed about how the insruance companies handle accident claims. Shelly's book explains the process clearly and provides the "warning signs" that consumers need before they or their loved ones are involved in an accident. Shelly's stories of what could go wrong for the ininformed or misinformed accident victim are "universal truths" as far as I'm concerned. You would be well served if you live or work in South Carolina, to order and read this free book."
