 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used this firm to help with a workman's comp dispute. We started the process on February 1, 2023 and had a settlement agreement by August 22, 2023.
I found the office staff to be friendly and more than capable to answer my questions and guide me through this process. Pam Worley and Rose Fagan sent prompt emails letting me know what I needed to do and the status of the claim.
Mr. Rob Usry was patient and called personally to let me know what was happening and what the next step would be. He negotiated well with the Workman's Comp legal team and reached a fair agreement.
If you are looking for an attorney that communicates well, is friendly, and will work in you behalf, I strongly recommend Holland & Usry, P.A.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got hurt on the job in Gaffney SC. I saw rather quickly that I was going to need help. Rob Usry was referred by a friend who had a great experience with their services.  So I contacted them and it was the best move I could have ever made.  Rob and his staff were amazing they treated  me and my wife like family.  They left no stone unturned while working on my case and I could not be happier with the results. I would highly recommend Rob Usry and his team to anyone who is in need of a lawyer in the upstate.  They are the best in the business.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rob Ursy PA and Rose Fagan did a wonderful job with my workmen compensation case.  I slipped at my work in Spartanburg, SC.  I was treated respectfully and that I was important.  They helped me communicate with workmen compensation to get a case the right way.  Communicate with opposing counsel.   An settlement was offered.  Ultimately, I settled with workmen compensation insurance thru my work.  The settlement was for good bit more than was originally offered. I am glad I got what I needed to get my injury repaired. Thank you!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Seeking help from an attorney was not on my radar when I was injured at work.  Unfortunately, workers compensation became a barrier between me and the treatment I needed.  Months battling workers compensation, being questioned relentlessly and then rejected, I contacted Holland & Usry, P.A.
Mr. Usry and his team went to bat for me and I received the necessary treatment I needed, in addition to medical bills being paid.  Workers compensation is a bear to deal with.  If not for Mr. Usry and Rose, I would still be in a needless and stressful battle with them - this I am sure!
I am extremely grateful for the honesty, integrity and compassion given me from this group!  My journey is still in motion and Mr. Usry and Rose are taking care of business!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My  husband and  I were victims of a hit and run accident about a year ago,  My husband suffered a cracked  clavicle and deep bruises to both knees, my injuries required a session of physical  therapy.  We had never been in an accident,   and we felt victimized - our car was totaled, and we both suffered panful injuries.  Following advice of friends and family, we decided to consult an attorney.  Rob Usry was highly recommended, and we decided to ask him to represent us.  Rob and his staff - Rose and Pam - were professional, thorough and supportive . They walked us through every step of the way. Since my husband and i are senior citizens with little experience with lawsuits, and  unreliable computer skills, we needed help.   Rose  patiently  answered our question and coached us along through computer glitches. Pam would  organize and evaluate the seemingly endless maze of medical bills.  When it came time to  dicker with with insurance
companies, Rob was the  persistent master of negotiations,  and we are very happy with the  outcomes of our case.  We are thankful to Rob Usry , Attorney At Law. and his staff, and highly recommend them to help you find the answers to the question - I Just Got In a South Carolina Car Accident. Now What.?

How long does it take to get a settlement check in a South Carolina worker’s comp case?

If you feel guilty about asking, stop. You’ve lost work and income. You may need the money to catch up on some bills. It’s the responsible thing to make plans and budget carefully when you receive money, and that includes a South Carolina workers’ comp settlement.

That’s why we work to get you the money as quickly as we can. Find out what else we can do in your case in a free*, no pressure strategy session with a Spartanburg, SC workers’ comp attorney. Call toll free at (864) 582-0416 or fill out a Get Help Now form.

But here’s the answer: it does take a little time to get your check, but it’s because workers’ compensation law imposes some requirements to protect you. Settlements must be filed with the Workers’ Compensation Commission and attorney fees and costs must be approved by the Commission.

The Spartanburg Workers’ Comp Settlement Process

Here’s how it works ordinarily:

We agree to settle the case with the workers’ compensation insurance company that handles your benefits.
We get settlement documents laying out the agreement. We review them closely to protect your rights, especially since they can impact your ability to get free future medical care for your injuries, depending which settlement option you chose. If you’ve been declared permanently and totally disabled, you can bet we’ll be extra careful about preserving your rights to the most extensive benefits known in workers’ comp. If the documents aren’t right, we make changes to protect you.
The check usually comes with the settlement documents. We deposit that in our trust account, a special account safeguarding your money.
Once the documents are ready for you to sign, you sign. Naturally, we explain them to you beforehand, since they’re often incredibly complex “legalese”—which can be just plain ridiculous. We return them to opposing counsel to file with the Commission, or we file them ourselves.
You also sign a Form 61. It’s an official form from the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Commission. It details who gets paid from the settlement, including our fees and costs paid from the settlement check. We send that to a Commissioner with an order approving the fees and costs.

When we get the filed copies of the settlement documents, the form 61, and the order approving our fees and costs, it’s official! You get your check.

Workers Compensation Settlements Are Worth A Little Wait

While the process takes longer than we want—usually a few weeks—it’s to be sure no injured worker gets taken for a ride by an insurance company—or even a dishonest lawyer.

Naturally, if you’ve hired us, you’re not worried about that.
