Pierce, Albert Richard Jr

DUI/DWI
Car and motorcycle accident claims against individuals and employers can involve a broad range of theories of liability. Allegations of distracted driving are becoming increasingly common; and drunk driving, drowsy driving, and other negligence-based claims continue to be common as well. Personal injury claims involving car and motorcycle accidents routinely focus on allegations such as...

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Albert Richard (“Rick’) Pierce, Jr., practice focuses on the areas of business and corporate litigation, professional liability, and automobile liability. Prior to joining Howser, Newman & Besley, Rick served as a law clerk to the Honorable Paula H. Thomas. See Rick’s full bio on the Attorney Profile page.
Business Disputes
R. Davis (“Dave”) Howser is member of our firm’s litigation practice and focuses his work in the areas of professional liability, product liability, business disputes, and insurance coverage litigation. He has extensive experience representing architects, engineers, attorneys and other professionals in malpractice and professional liability matters. See Dave’s full bio on the Attorney Profile page.
Construction Contracts
“Pay-if-paid” and “pay-when-paid” clauses are commonly used in construction contracts to shift the risk of non-payment between contractors and subcontractors. When a contract includes a “pay-if-paid” clause, the risk of non-payment falls on the subcontractor. The subcontractor is only entitled to payment if the contractor receives payment from the property owner (or another payor). Under a “pay-when-paid” clause, however, the risk of non-payment rests with the contractor. The when aspect of the clause presumes that the contractor actually collect for the job – and even if the contractor is not paid, it must still compensate the subcontractor within a stipulated time frame.

Employment Discrimination
Damon primarily defends clients in the areas of insurance casualty defense, products liability defense, and governmental liability defense. He handles lawsuits involving wrongful death, sexual assault, sexual harassment, commercial and residential premises liability, law enforcement use of force and failure to protect, employment discrimination (race and gender), defamation, and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Employment Contract
Generally speaking, yes. Mandatory mediation and arbitration clauses are enforceable in South Carolina. Mandatory arbitration clauses in business-to-business contracts will typically be enforced unless there are extenuating circumstances, and the South Carolina courts routinely enforce mandatory ADR clauses in insurance and employment contracts as well (although these may be subject to closer scrutiny in certain circumstances).
Sexual Harassment

Premises Liability
George V. (“Geov”) Hanna, IV, is a member of our firm’s litigation practice and focuses his practice primarily in the areas of premises liability, construction, automobile insurance, professional liability, and products liability defense. Prior to joining Howser, Newman & Besley, Geov served as law clerk to the Honorable James C. Williams, Jr. See Geov’s full bio on the Attorney Profile page.
Construction Litigation
While there are standardized “pay-if-paid” and “pay-when-paid” clauses available for use in construction agreements, the nature of a subcontractor’s right to payment will not always be clear. As a result, payment disputes between contractors and subcontractors are common; and when the parties cannot agree on an appropriate interpretation of their agreement, litigation may become necessary.
Property Damage
Our attorneys are experienced and aggressive advocates for companies involved in insurance coverage disputes arising out of claims for property damage, construction defects, business interruptions, work-related injuries, and other types of losses. Representing both insurance companies and insured businesses, we have decades of experience on both sides of insurance coverage disputes and are closely familiar with the complex legal issues involved.

Personal Injury
With regard to comparative negligence, South Carolina follows the rule referred to as “modified comparative fault.” This means that a personal injury plaintiff is entitled to recover at least a portion of their damages – unless it can be proven that they were 51 percent or more at fault in the accident. When a plaintiff is 50 percent at fault, he or she is entitled recover to half of his or her losses. When a plaintiff is 51 percent at fault, the defendants’ liability is zero.
Medical Malpractice
As a litigator, Ben has handled cases involving a wide variety of legal issues, including medical malpractice, professional negligence, business contracts and disputes, premises liability, construction, wrongful death, and bodily injury. As a mediator, Ben’s cases include the full spectrum of business, property and injury cases.
