Giving Back to the Community

HELPING OTHERS IS AT THE HEART OF WHAT WE DO AT STEWART LAW OFFICES. TO US, THE COMMITMENT TO SERVICE EXTENDS BEYOND OUR CLIENTS AND INTO THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE KNOW AND LOVE.

NOTE: Our 2020 Teacher Appreciation Award Has Been Postponed Due to COVID-19. We are Hoping to Resume this Initiative in the Fall. Thank You!

Our legal team collaborates with charitable organizations that work to build stronger communities in both Carolinas. Everyone has a role to play in building a better community. We’re all neighbors. When we join forces, everybody benefits.

Check back often to learn about the other organizations that Stewart Law Offices will be supporting each month.

25TH YEAR OF SERVING THE COMMUNITY

Community involvement has been a tradition at Stewart Law Offices. To celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2020, the law firm is dedicating each month this year to highlight different charities and organizations in the community. Their goal is to bring more awareness and inspire others to join them in supporting and building better communities across North and South Carolina.

Since being founded in 1995, Stewart Law Offices has dedicated its professional efforts towards helping injured people. But effective representation doesn’t happen without compassion and caring of those in need — and that caring extends far beyond office doors and courtrooms. It flows into the communities they serve. Supporting the community makes everyone involved stronger.

Everyone has an opportunity to be a good citizen. It can start with something as simple as picking up litter on the sidewalk or volunteering time at the local animal shelter. It all adds up.

Stewart Law Offices Proudly Supports...

Teacher Appreciation Award

Teachers do great work year-round, and to show them our gratitude, Stewart Law Offices would like to recognize some of the teachers that do great work every day.

We want to know about you or your child’s favorite teacher and why. Stewart Law Offices will award $500 to 8 of these very special teachers. Tell us who the teacher is and why they’re deserving of additional recognition for all their hard work.

To be eligible, the teacher must currently teach in grades k-12 in a school district within one of the following counties: York County SC, Lancaster County SC, Chester County SC, Spartanburg County SC, Richland County SC, Lexington County, SC, Gaston County NC or Mecklenburg County, NC.

Kids' Chance of South Carolina

The workers’ compensation attorneys at Stewart Law Offices understand how a workplace accident can change the lives of families forever. That’s why we’ve chosen March to highlight and share our support for Kids’ Chance of South Carolina, a nonprofit organization that provides scholarships to children of workers who were injured or killed on the job.

Since 1992, Kids’ Chance has awarded more than $1.1 million in scholarships to eligible students seeking to attend college or vocational schools after graduating from high school. But the need for additional support to South Carolinians is great. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows there were 32,800 workplace injuries or illnesses recorded in South Carolina in a recent year. Of that number, an astounding 57 percent of those cases were considered severe.

Polar Plunge South Carolina

Stewart Law Offices is diving into a fun and vital initiative in February — Polar Plunge South Carolina, the largest overall fundraising event for the Special Olympics.

Special Olympics South Carolina provides athletic training and Olympic-style sporting activities for both adults and children with intellectual disabilities, promoting both physical fitness and fostering friendships throughout the state. More than 30,000 athletes participate in the Special Olympics in South Carolina every year.

Stewart’s legal team joins other Polar Plunge participants to dip their toes, hop in the cold waters of Lake Murray, or plunge into waters at other aquatic locations around the state to raise money for the Special Olympics.

Interested in participating in the Polar Plunge? There’s still time to do it!

Medical Debt Relief

Stewart Law Offices recently partnered with RIP Medical Debt to alleviate medical debt for 480 families struggling in Richland, Lexington and Lancaster, S.C. counties.

RIP Medical Debt is an organization that accepts contributions to assist families who have incurred vast amounts of medical debt with little means to repay it. According to the nonprofit’s website, every day 79 million Americans must choose between paying their medical bills or meeting basic needs such as food and shelter.
