Law Firm Overview Free Consultation

The cornerstone of the success of PHILPOT LAW FIRM PA is building and maintaining quality relationships with our clients. South Carolinians relied on our firm, since 1980, to help them recover damages caused by personal injuries. I. Henry Philpot Jr., our law firm’s founding attorney and patriarch has been practicing law since 1964 and has earned the trust of clients for more than 40 years. Henry Philpot was joined at the firm by his daughter and two of his sons – all personal injury lawyers, with the commitment to protect and defend the rights of injured people.

We believe that when someone has suffered a personal injury caused by another’s negligence, the victim should be compensated in order to move on with his or her life — and to hold the responsible party accountable. We take the time to understand each client and each case in order to find a resolution that will speed your return to a normal life. We discuss the law, the possible options and outcomes. We take pride in the fact that when a case is resolved by settlement or litigation, it is with the client's understanding, participation and commitment.

Focused on our clients’ needs, we provide effective, compassionate legal representation for people seeking fair compensation for their personal injuries. Our staff of six legal assistants, using state-of-the-art technology ensures that each case is updated and prepared for the next phase, be it settlement or litigation. Office Manager Becky Philpot oversees day-to-day operations and staff management. Investigator Joe Philpot is responsible for accident investigations and witness interviews, in addition to many other aspects of case preparation.

Practice Areas

Practice Areas Description

- Car Accident

A car accident can change your life in a matter of seconds. Suddenly, you have medical treatments and pain. You may not be able to work, and when you do go back to work, you may not be able to work as productively as you did before the accident.

- Truck Accident

Truck accidents can be devastating. Being hit by an 18-wheeler on Interstate 85 or another dangerous roadway can instantly change your future. It can take a lot of time and a lot of money to move forward after such an experience. For some, life will never be the same, but with the right medical treatment, psychological treatment and financial compensation, life can resume in a meaningful way.

- Motorcycle Accident

The Philpot Law Firm, PA, provides dedicated legal help to people who have sustained injuries in motorcycle accidents. Despite efforts by motorcyclists to protect themselves with helmets and long-sleeved clothing, motorcycle accidents can result in serious injury and fatality.

- Pedestrian and Bicycle Injury

With changes in the economy and a movement toward "greener" modes of transportation, many people are choosing to walk or ride bicycles to the places they need to go. Unfortunately, pedestrians and bicyclists are some of the most vulnerable people on our roadways.

- Drunk Driving

If you or someone you care about has been injured in a drunk driving accident, the Philpot Law Firm, PA can help. Since 1980, we have been standing up for the rights of those who have been injured by the negligence of a drunk driver. We are familiar with all of the procedures that can help you obtain fair and full compensation for the injuries.

- Motor Vehicle Accidents

Although motor vehicle accidents can occur anywhere, some roadways and interstates seem to be magnets for accidents. Whether due to road construction, debris or driver negligence, these unsafe highway and interstate accidents often result in serious injuries.

- Premises Liability

One moment you were feeling fine. Then you slipped and fell because of a hazardous condition. Or you were attacked in a dark corridor because of negligent security. You were injured. Do you need a lawyer?

If you have been injured in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, your first step is to get medical help. Then get legal help by contacting a lawyer from the Philpot Law Firm. If you need assistance finding medical help, let us know.

- Dog Bite

If you or someone you know has sustained injuries from a dog bite, the Philpot Law Firm can help. Since 1980, we have provided dedicated legal help to people who have been injured by the negligence of others. A dog bite injury will generally be pursued as a premises liability claim. Property owners have a duty to provide people with safe property conditions. This can include making sure a dangerous dog is restrained or muzzled. In some situations, it can also include warning visitors about potentially dangerous animals, such as pit bulls or rottweilers.

- Product Liability

At the Philpot Law Firm, PA, we focus every resource we have on protecting the rights of injured people. That focus means all our experience as personal injury attorneys and investigators will be at your service if you have suffered an injury as the result of a dangerous or defective product. If you have been injured by an unsafe product, we can help you pursue a product liability claim with the goal of getting compensation for your injuries.

- Medical Malpractice

When you go to an emergency room, visit a doctor’s office, or have surgery, you expect the best of care from medical professionals and medical facilities. Sadly, sometimes that is not the case. If you are injured because of poor or negligent care, you may need a medical malpractice attorney to make sure you get the care and compensation you are entitled to.

- Nursing Home Abuse

All too often, we read news items or see news reports on television about nursing home abuse. Elderly people who cannot defend themselves and often cannot speak for themselves are vulnerable to abuse. Elder abuse is a serious matter than can lead to serious injury and even fatality. If you suspect your loved one is a victim of elder abuse, the Philpot Law Firm can help.

- Serious Injury

The Philpot Law Firm, PA is always on the side of injured people. We offer two generations of legal experience to help you, or your loved one, obtain compensation and adjust to the circumstances caused by the injury. If you have suffered a catastrophic injury, our dedicated, compassionate and experienced representation can make a world of difference.

- Brain Injury

Our personal injury attorneys have been helping injured people since 1980. We are adept at addressing the many concerns of our injured clients and their family members. For those who have sustained serious injury — such as a spinal cord injury or brain injury — our experience and dedication can bring much-needed peace of mind during a stressful time.

- Wrongful Death

If you have lost a loved one in a fatal accident, we extend our condolences. As a family-run law firm, we understand the devastation of losing a close family member. As your attorneys and your advocates, we provide a caring and compassionate approach to a sensitive and painful issue.

- Workers Compensation

When you are injured at work, everything changes. Your paycheck may be in jeopardy. Your boss may treat you like an enemy. Your employer may not let you visit the doctor you choose.

- Construction Accident

Construction sites are some of the most dangerous work places imaginable. There is a constant possibility of things going wrong — falls from scaffolding, faulty equipment gone awry, hazardous OSHA violations and more. The potential for a serious construction accident is never far away from workers' minds.

- Factory Accident

The Greenville, South Carolina, area is headquarters to many factory and manufacturing companies, including BMW and Michelin. Although a majority of these companies take every possible safety precaution to protect their employees, nothing can stop some factory accidents from taking place. Injured workers are left facing serious injuries, including amputations, crush injuries and back and neck injuries.
