Charleston County Personal Injury Lawyer

Cantwell Law Firm is proud to be headquartered right here in Charleston, serving clients throughout Charleston County — including North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, James Island, West Ashley, and Johns Island. We know the Lowcountry, and we know how injury claims are handled in Charleston County courts.

Charleston's tourism traffic, port and maritime industry, and busy corridors like I-26, I-526, and Highway 17 contribute to a wide range of injury claims, including:

  • Car, motorcycle, and pedestrian accidents

  • Boating and maritime injuries (Admiralty & Maritime law)

  • Construction site accidents

  • Tourist-related injuries (rental scooters, golf carts, hotel premises)

  • Nursing home abuse and neglect

  • Medical malpractice

As a Charleston firm founded on decades of trust and attorney referrals across the Lowcountry, we bring the same standard of care to every personal injury client. We limit our practice to South Carolina so we can stay deeply familiar with local procedure — from Charleston County Court of Common Pleas to the specific insurance carriers commonly involved in Lowcountry claims.
