Personal Injury Law

Dave Swanner to the Rescue

By Michael Jeffcoat, Esq.

South Carolina's quintessential lawyer-blogger, Myrtle Beach's Dave Swanner, has been blogging on legal topics by way of his South Carolina Trial Law Blog for quite a while now. I always appreciate the high quality of the information that Dave offers.

One page on his blog in particular is a life-saver for South Carolina attorneys. Questions SC Lawyers Want Answered collects together Dave's blog entries that offer some of the basic information that South Carolina injury attorneys frequently need to have at their fingertips - calculating witness fees, the damages cap on Tort Claims Act cases, maximum compensation rates in South Carolina workers' compensation cases, the critical case decisions affecting how punitive damages are awarded in South Carolina, recovering depreciation for vehicles, the maximum that doctors and hospitals can charge for medical records, the rate for calculating post-judgment interest on damage awards, and which South Carolina court takes priority when there is a scheduling conflict.

So, if you are a South Carolina attorney who is in occasional need of answers to these kinds of questions, or just a curious member of the public, now you know where to turn.
