Attorney Sam Briggs

Sam is a South Carolinian, and son of a lawyer, who grew up in Greenville, South Carolina. After graduating from the University of South Carolina, Sam chose to attend Charleston School of Law. Sam was admitted to practice law in South Carolina and began working with his father litigating any case that came through the door. Although his career began in Greenville, SC, Sam moved to the “DMV” and spent most of his career litigating medical malpractice and personal injury cases in Washington, D.C. before returning to Charleston to launch Briggs Law Group.

Sam is a seasoned trial attorney with a proven track record in high-stakes litigation, focusing on medical malpractice, wrongful death, and personal injury cases. Sam is driven by a simple but powerful mission: to give a voice to individuals and families facing life-altering harm while fighting for the accountability and compensation they deserve.

By bringing this relentless commitment to justice and deep understanding of the complexities of medical malpractice and personal injury litigation, Sam has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of his clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I know if I have a case?

You have a personal injury case if someone else has legal fault for hurting you. Legal fault varies from situation to situation. Many cases are based on accidents, where someone created a dangerous situation by not being careful enough. When you ask for a consultation with a lawyer at Briggs Law Group, we explore all possibilities for you to have a case.

• How much time do I have to file a lawsuit?

It depends. For general negligence claims, the time limit to file a lawsuit in South Carolina is three years. But it might be shorter or longer. You should never wait to contact a lawyer. We want to work quickly to preserve evidence and start pursuing your compensation.

• How will my lawyer determine the value of my case?

Your lawyer determines the value of your case by evaluating the types of losses you have. Plus, they consider other factors like how clear fault is and how you can collect compensation. Generally, the worse your injuries and losses, the more your case may be worth. However, there are other factors that may impact your case value.

• What steps should I take to protect my rights after an Injury?

After an injury, get medical care as quickly as possible. Report the accident to the police, your employer, or the property owner, as applicable. Have someone take photos and collect witness contact information. Consult with a lawyer as soon as possible.
