Under South Carolina law, injured workers have a number of rights and legal protections. But the fact that these laws exist is not enough to ensure that a worker is actually protected from employer wrongdoing or retaliation after a work accident. Sometimes, an employee needs a strong legal advocate on his or her side to ensure the employer follows the law.
As a Spartanburg/Greenville workers' compensation attorney and founder of the Knie & Shealy Law Offices, I work with injured employees to ensure their rights are protected and that they receive the workers' compensation benefits they are due.
