Have you been injured in a car collision?
We take great pride in representing injured parties only and choose not to represent insurance companies in these cases.

We handle cases involving the following:
- Automobile and Truck Collisions
- Tractor-Trailer and Commercial Truck Collisions

Workers' Compensation
Have you been injured on the job?
We represent people in claims for lost wages and medical treatment expenses against private industry as well as federal, state and local government employers and their workers' compensation insurers. We handle issues dealing with whether your injury qualifies as "on the job," as well as disputes concerning the benefits to which you may be entitled.

Personal Injury
Have you been injured because of the careless or intentional actions of another?
If so, you are entitled to financial compensation for your medical and property expenses, incidental costs caused by the collision, and possibly additional compensation to cover future expenses, and for the pain and suffering caused by the injury. If you have suffered a personal injury - from car collisions to accidental shootings, electrocutions or injuries from fires and explosions - please contact us to discuss your legal rights and just compensation for your injury.
We do not charge an attorney fee for personally consulting with you about your injury case. Many people do not have the money to hire a personal injury lawyer to protect their rights. You probably didn't have this unexpected injury figured into your budget. Now you have high medical bills, probably lost wages, and many other financial worries caused by this situation. It is unfair for these obstacles to prevent you from obtaining the full amount you are due under the law in just compensation for your injuries.
Don't just take the first offer of settlement from the insurance company if it doesn't fully compensate you for your loss and protect you from future complications. Protecting your rights is important to us. That's the reason we cover all expenses until the end of a case and then we are paid a portion of the funds recovered. If we are unable to recover compensation for you, you do not owe us a fee. This is called a "contingency fee" arrangement and is common among South Carolina personal injury attorneys.
Attorneys put up large sums of money on these complex cases in order to hire experts, take depositions, gather evidence and oppose the lawyers of large insurance firms. Rankin & Rankin has the experience, skill and dedication to successfully resolve your case.

Wrongful Death
Has your family suffered the tragic and unnecessary death of a family member caused by the negligence of another?
Wrongful death cases may arise because of a variety of incidents, including car collisions, aviation collisions and medical malpractice. Attorneys at Rankin & Rankin want to make sure that the surviving family is compensated for their loss to the fullest extent of the law.
In times of grief, family members are often unable to appreciate the importance of a prompt investigation into the circumstances of the death and the preservation of evidence.

Pursuing a wrongful death action will not bring your loved one back to you, but it will ensure that you and your children will have increased financial security in the years to come.

Traffic Violations
South Carolina Traffic Violation Lawyer
A simple traffic violation can increase the number of points on an individual’s driver’s license and result in higher insurance premiums. At Rankin & Rankin, we put our combined experience of over 60 years to work for you. For effective legal assistance with a traffic violation, contact our Horry County law firm. Our South
Carolina traffic ticket lawyer assists residents and visitors of Horry County with a wide range of traffic infractions, including the following:
- Speeding tickets
- Reckless driving
Many individuals, including Horry County residents, as well as people vacationing in the area frequently get pulled over for speeding on Highway 501 and Highway 22. Our firm provides effective and personal representation for traffic violations to Horry County residents as well as out-of-state individuals.
The value of points that a ticket has depends on the officer issuing the ticket and the number of miles per hour the driver was over the limit. The lower the point value of the citation, the better it is for an individual’s insurance rate. Our Horry County traffic ticket attorney works to reduce the points of a ticket or reduce a client’s bond amount. Our goal is to achieve the best possible results for our client’s insurance premiums. At times, we are able to achieve a no-point value for a ticket, which usually has no effect on an individual’s insurance costs.
