I was recently in need of attorney to represent me , and was recommended to Mr. Matt Swilley. Experiences I’ve had in the past with other attorneys had made me hesitant on who to trust, fortunately Matt Swilley has shown me that attorneys can be trustworthy. From the beginning of my case Mr. Swilley was completely honest, explaining to me exactly what was happening and what my options were. He informed me that he would do everything in his power to obtain the best possible outcome for my case. Matt Swilley really went the “extra mile” in my case, he not only fought for what I asked but achieved an outcome much better than I ever expected. Mr. Swilley is intelligent , trustworthy, and I am completely satisfied with his service. I highly recommend Matt Swilley for anyone in need of an excellent attorney.

I recently needed an attorney for a civil matter. I tried using an attorney I've known for a long time and was not very hopeful after meeting with them and giving them a week to "try some things". A friend referred me to Matt and bragged about how good he was. That was an understatement. Matt got my info and went to work right away, meeting me the same day I initially spoke to him, and later going to the courthouse to file paperwork for my case. Again, this was all done in the first day. Over the next few weeks, he and I stayed in contact constantly until my court appearance. He came to court well prepared and resolved my issue. If you find yourself in need of an attorney for any reason, call Matt first. I know from now on I will.

How much time do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit?

You have three years to file a personal injury lawsuit in South Carolina. A claim against the government must be started in two years. You don’t have to complete the case in that timeframe. You can meet the deadline by just one day and still receive your compensation. However, it’s always best to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible.

What is my personal injury case worth?

A personal injury case may seek compensation for economic loss, like medical bills, and personal loss, like pain and suffering. There are many types of losses that a person may have with a personal injury. These losses can be claimed as compensation. What your personal injury case is worth depends on several factors – the losses you have, how fault is assigned, and sources of compensation.

What is the difference between a felony and a misdemeanor?

Felonies are usually more serious offenses than misdemeanors. But each offense has its own maximum incarceration and other penalties.

Generally, felonies carry longer potential jail time than misdemeanors. In addition, felonies may result in the loss of rights, such as firearm possession and voting rights, that are not lost with misdemeanors.

How does the criminal defense process work in SC?

The criminal defense process begins when a person is charged with a crime. The person may be arrested, informed of the charges, or summoned to court. At the first hearing, the person pleads guilty or not guilty. The court may impose conditions on the bond.

More serious offenses begin with a preliminary hearing. There may also be a pre-trial conference and motion hearings, and the parties may discuss a plea bargain.
