A Trial Lawyer on Your Side
The insurance company is happy to settle your car accident case ... for less than you deserve. Full compensation is another story. The insurer won't budge unless you have a well-documented claim and an attorney who is prepared to go to trial.
Before you talk to the insurance adjuster or sign anything, contact attorney Craig Wilkerson. His thorough and aggressive approach has helped clients recover millions of dollars in personal injury verdicts and settlements in York County and South Carolina.

Making the Most of Your Car Accident Claim
We will represent clients involved in any type of auto wreck:
- Intersection and rear-end collisions
- SUV rollovers
- Truck vs. car accidents
- Highway defect cases
- Pedestrians hit by cars
- Fatal car accidents (wrongful death)
- DUI
- Defective tires
Our goal is to force the insurance company to choose between full and fair settlement or the risk of a higher award from a jury. Craig Wilkerson is an accomplished trial lawyer who opens every case on the assumption that it will go to court. Crucial evidence disappears quickly, so we get investigators quickly to the scene to take photos of the vehicles, debris and injuries. Mr. Wilkerson often talks to witnesses himself while their memories are fresh.
Prompt medical treatment and detailed medical reports are also critical to proving your full need for compensation. We advise clients to get treatment for any injuries from a car crash — you may be hurt worse than you thought. Insurance companies successfully argue that if you were hurt, you would have gone to the doctor. So failure to promptly seek medical treatment will be used as a defense to your case by the insurance company. If you are hurt, our advice will be to IMMEDIATELY see a doctor. Do not attempt to go it alone and do not attempt to tough it out through the pain. We can connect clients to doctors who understand the need for thorough documentation and are willing to give depositions. If you do not have health insurance, we can help find doctors willing to defer payment until your case is resolved.
Too many drivers in South Carolina carry no liability insurance, and even more do not have adequate coverage to pay your medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. Mr. Wilkerson tackles the insurance issues that can make or break your claim — claim denials, uninsured/underinsured motorist policies (UM/UIM), Med Pay and PIP, subrogation and the stacking of coverage if you own more than one vehicle.
The Law Office of F. Craig Wilkerson Jr. is not a "settlement mill" that takes the insurance company's first offer. We are committed to securing the total compensation you need to heal your body and get your life back on track after a car accident. Contact us today for a free case evaluation.
