Just Looking For Advice?
Sometimes hiring a lawyer to represent you in a "small claims" Magistrate Court case does not make financial sense. Why hire a lawyer when you can do-it-yourself? Still, trying to prepare for your case alone can be difficult and intimidating.
Please contact our office if you are thinking about filing or defending against a Magistrate level lawsuit in Beaufort or Jasper County South Carolina and you would like some self-help advice regarding the following:
1. An honest assessment of your case;
2. Insight into how the process works and what to expect; and
3. Hands-on instruction on how to present your case and your arguments in court.
Sometimes, all you need to be successful is to be pointed in the right direction.
Please call our office at 843-271-6839, toll-free 888-595-5672, to arrange an appointment. Fees for this service are at a fixed hourly rate.
