Child Abuse
Inadequate background checks. Anyone who wishes to work with children should be forced to undergo a criminal background check. Special attention should be paid to those volunteers or potential workers who have a history of violent or inappropriate acts, including, but not limited to, harassment, assault, child abuse, criminal sexual conduct, or other similar crimes.

Wrongful Death
Experienced SC truck accident injury attorneys at McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, LLC know how important it is to treat injuries from truck accidents seriously right from the start. Due to the sheer size and weight of a commercial tractor trailer, truck accidents cause serious personal injuries and wrongful death at a rate much higher than auto accidents involving passenger vehicles.
Traffic Violations
Spinal cord injuries that lead to paralysis sometimes occur due to severe truck accidents. Such catastrophic injuries are often the result a truck crashing into another vehicle at a high rate of speeding. Speeding truckers may be responsible for the highway truck accident that resulted in a spinal cord injury. We will pursue justice for a client and hold the negligent driver or trucking company accountable.
Sex Crimes
Sexual assault and abuse can cause immediate and long-term trauma. At McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, LLC, we help South Carolina victims of sexual assault take back their lives by demanding justice for the harm and pain theyâ€™ve experienced. We will fight to hold the people and businesses accountable for your injuries. You may be entitled to compensation from...
Fraud
Class action lawsuits permit one or more persons to sue as representatives of a large group of people (known as â€œthe classâ€ ) interested in the same matter or issue. Class actions are a powerful tool for redressing systematic civil wrongs, including consumer fraud and corporate misconduct. Because class claims typically involve financial losses that are too small to bring as individual cases, the class action lawsuit is a significant tool that allows such claims to be aggregated and for the class representatives to pursue relief for all class members. The efficiencies achieved from this aggregation of claims often levels the playing field when litigating against defendants with vastly superior resources.
Assault
Prostitution
Â€œSouth Carolinaâ€™s child sex trafficking statute does not require use of force, fraud, or coercion. Additionally, child victims are not subject to prosecution for prostitution and trafficking offenses committed pursuant to their victimization; instead, survivors may access specialized services through â€˜certified specialized service providersâ€™ and Human Trafficking Acute Crisis Care and Resource Centers.â€ Center for Justice and Advocacy

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Improve their health conditions, not worsen them. While many hospitals meet our expectations in that regard, a fair number do not. A 2010 article in the Illinois Business Law Journal suggested that this was related to an economy in recession: that as hospitals struggled to save money, they focused on their major expenses by cutting staff and services. This solution can adversely affect the quality of patient care. The article cautioned hospitals to â€œ... try to balance quality of care concerns with financial management in order to ensure that patients are receiving the best care.â€
Antitrust

Workers Compensation
Your employer maintains workersâ€™ compensation insurance to cover injuries sustained while you are on the job. In order to process your claim after you are injured, your companyâ€™s insurer will have its doctor verify your condition and evaluate your ability to return to work. At McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, LLC, our South Carolina injury lawyers assist clients in preparing all necessary paperwork and medical documentation while taking steps to protect their job. If your employer tries to intimidate or coerce you into returning to work before you are ready, we are ready to undertake any necessary legal action to prevent this abuse. In cases where medical personnel downplay or dismiss injuries, we refer clients to medical specialists who may dispute the findings of your employerâ€™s doctor.
Sexual Harassment
Teenagers of dating age need to understand they always have the right to say no. They have the right to respond (through their parents, teachers, and school officials) to any sexual harassment, hazing, or threats that make them uncomfortable. Students have the right to attend school without threat of sexual exploitation by other students. Such exploitation can include, bullying social media posts, sexting or websites that reference their body or their sex in any way.

Premises Liability
There are many types of premises liability cases. People get hurt in escalator accidents, because a balcony or railing doesnâ€™t provide proper support, or because a homeowner did not warn of a swimming people. Many of the ways people get injured due to a fall on the property of another can fit into one of the following categories.
Property Damage
Economic damages, which include things like medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. There is no cap on economic damages.

Personal Injury
Carefully review the information below and tips from our South Carolina personal injury lawyers. Double-check the information provided by law enforcement officials and accident investigators, including the location of the accident, date and time, and recorded injuries and vehicle damages. If you have any questions about your accident report, contact McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips LLC immediately for a free case consultation.
Medical Malpractice
Diagnostic errors are a type of medical malpractice. There are several different kinds of diagnostic errors that a physician or healthcare facility may make which can significantly impact a patientâ€™s overall health and long-term prognosis...
Auto Accidents
Social Security Disability
If you are not sure what you need to do to initiate benefits and protect your job, we can help. We will review your case and explain alternatives to consider, such as Social Security Disability benefits, if returning to work is unlikely for you.
Dog Bites
Dog bites and animal attacks. Pets provide a lot of comfort and joy to homeowners. But they can also cause severe scarring, nerve damage and permanent harm when they bite or attack. Children are especially vulnerable because they donâ€™t realize dogs can bite or cats can scratch. There is no first bite rule in South Carolina. At McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, we file complaints against homeowners and their insurance policies even if the animal has never misbehaved before.
