Experienced Workers' Compensation and On-the-Job Injury Attorney
Prior to founding the Hughey Law Firm, trial attorney Nathan Hughey worked at a firm that was instrumental in drafting, designing and implementing the current South Carolina workers' compensation system. We can evaluate your claim to determine your legal right to workers' compensation benefits. Many people who assume they are not eligible for benefits actually are, including many independent contractors.
If you have been injured at work, contact us for answers to your questions. If you decide to file a claim, we can file it and, if necessary, work to prove the extent of your injuries and prove that your injuries were caused or were worsened by conditions or an accident at work.
Common work injuries include:
- Repetitive trauma and carpal tunnel injuries
- Muscle injuries, bone injuries
- Head and traumatic brain injuries
- Psychological injuries
- Back, neck and spinal cord injuries
- Amputations, dismemberment injuries
- Burns and disfigurement
We also file federal Longshore and Harbor Workers' Act/Jones Act and admiralty claims for workers injured on the job at sea or other waterways throughout the region.
We can represent you for both workers' compensation claims and any third-party civil litigation against contractors, homeowners, commercial building owners, insurance companies and other parties liable for your on-the-job injury.
