FAQs
The answer to this question depends on the nature of your case. We set our contingency fee rate based on factors specific to the cases we agree to take on. We can discuss what your rate would be if you choose to hire us. We’ll discuss all the details of your client agreement before you sign, to provide you with a clear understanding of our contingency fee structure.

No two personal injury cases are the same, which means it’s difficult to estimate how long yours might take. In general, a straightforward case may take a few months to settle, but complex ones involving more serious injuries or disputed liability, and especially cases that need to go to court, may take a year or more.
At Stewart Law Offices, we always aim for efficient resolutions to all claims, but never at the cost of the accountability and fair compensation you deserve.
To make the most of your free consultation, consider bringing the following documents and information:
- Medical Records: Any records related to your injury, including doctor’s notes, treatment plans, and prescription information
- Accident Report: A police or incident report, if available
- Insurance Information: Both your insurance details and those of any other parties involved
- Photographs: Photos of the accident scene, injuries, and any property damage
- Witness Information: Contact details of anyone who witnessed the accident
These documents allow your attorney to evaluate your case more thoroughly and provide an accurate assessment of your personal injury claim.
Pain and suffering damages are intended to compensate you for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by an injury. These damages are not calculated by bills or receipts but rather by factors like the severity of your injury, your pain level, and the long-term impact on your life.
If you’ve been injured in Beaufort, South Carolina, due to someone else’s negligence, whether in a car crash on Robert Smalls Parkway or a slip and fall at a local business downtown, you may have a valid personal injury claim. To pursue compensation, we must show that the other party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, directly caused your injury, and you suffered damages. The Beaufort personal injury attorneys at Stewart Law Officers can evaluate your case during a free consultation to help you understand your legal options.
If you’re hurt in an accident anywhere in Beaufort, whether near Boundary Street or on the water by Lady’s Island, here’s what you should do:
- Call 911
- Get checked at Beaufort Memorial Hospital or an urgent care clinic.
