Know their playbook

Insurance companies are not on your side.

Adjusters are trained to protect the company's interests. Understanding what they do is the first step to making sure it doesn't work.

01

They request recorded statements

Adjusters ask questions that sound routine. Your answers are used to create a record that limits what they owe you. You are not legally required to give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company — and you should not do so before speaking with an attorney.

02

They make early settlement offers

A fast offer is designed to close your case before you understand the full extent of your injuries or future medical needs. Once you sign, the case is permanently closed — regardless of what bills arrive later or how your condition develops.

03

They dispute your injuries

Adjusters may question whether your injuries are as serious as you say, or whether they were caused by the accident at all. Incomplete medical records are one of the most common tools used to justify a lower payout.

04

They build a file on your case

They are collecting information: police reports, medical records, statements from witnesses. You deserve someone doing the same thing on your behalf — with the same urgency.

The moment we represent you, you no longer have to deal with the insurance company.

How it works

From first call to resolution.

Every car accident case is different, but our process follows a clear path, so you always know where you stand.

  1. 01

    Free consultation

    You speak directly with an attorney. We listen to what happened, explain your rights under South Carolina law, and give you an honest assessment of your claim. No obligation to move forward.

  2. 02

    We take over communication with insurance

    From the moment you retain us, all contact with insurance companies is handled by Knowles Law Firm. No more calls to navigate alone, no more risk of saying something that limits your recovery.

  3. 03

    Medical treatment and documentation

    You continue your treatment and follow-up care. We will check in with you often and ensure your medical records are properly built out to support your claim.

  4. 04

    Case file preparation

    We gather and organize everything: medical records, bills, lost wage documentation, photographs, police reports, and any other evidence relevant to the full value of your case.

  5. 05

    Demand and negotiation

    Once we have a complete picture of your injuries and losses, we prepare a formal demand and negotiate directly with the insurance company to secure the full value you deserve.

  6. 06

    Resolution

    Most cases resolve through settlement. If the insurance company's offer is not fair, we will be prepared to take your case to trial. Either way, our fee is based on what we recover for you.

Representation changes the outcome

The numbers speak for themselves.

According to the Insurance Research Council — funded by the insurance industry itself — represented claimants receive dramatically more.
