    Testimonials Icon

    I am very satisfied with Shelly Leeke Law Firm. The staff is very professional and nice.

    Thank you for your help in this matter.

    - D. Lombardo , Motor Vehicle Accident Client

    Testimonials Icon

    I am completely satisfied with my settlement. I didn’t think you would be able to get anything more out of the liability carrier. While no insurance company has stellar reputations, theirs is particularly bad – probably the worst I’ve seen reviewing the Internet. That says a lot about your negotiating skills.

    Thank you for your efforts on my behalf.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    After an accident occurs or an injury is suffered, you may feel lost and confused. Few people who have suffered an accident or incurred an injury have an extensive background in this area. Without this knowledge, they are left wondering how best to proceed in order to protect their legal rights. Fortunately, we are here to provide you with the answers that you are looking for. Check out our many frequently asked questions and their accompanying answers for more information.

    • How long after the death of a loved one, must a wrongful death claim be filed?

      In South Carolina, the family has three years from the death of the deceased to file a wrongful death lawsuit. This time is known as the Statute of Limitations.

    • Who is considered an employee?

      Under the Worker’s Compensation Act, an employee is any person who is under employment, contract for hire, or an apprenticeship, whether express or implied. This also includes foreign workers and minors who are lawfully or unlawfully employed as well as both full-time and part-time employees.

      Subcontractors may also be covered under workers’ compensation. If a subcontractor does not carry workers’ compensation insurance, the owner or developer above them in the chain of employment may be held liable for workers’ compensation to the injured employee, as if they were the direct employer.

    • Will I be reimbursed for the prescription medications I paid for medications I was prescribed for my injuries?

      Yes, You are entitled to reimbursement for the amount you paid for prescription medications, as long as they were prescribed by your doctor as a result of the injuries you suffered in the accident.The amount you paid will be included in the total settlement you receive. It is important that you keep receipts for all of your out of pocket expenses and give them to your attorney so that he/she may include this amount when negotiating your settlement.

    • Will you still take my case even though I do not live close to your office?

      Shelly Leeke represents accident victims throughout South Carolina. If we accept your case, we will make sure your case is handled efficiently and that your rights are protected, no matter where you live.
