Founded by native Charlestonian Philip Alan Berlinsky, a graduate of The Citadel and Mercer University Law School, the firm is built upon intense trial preparation and unwavering personal dedication. Unlike high-volume billboard firms, Philip Berlinsky works closely with each client, taking cases to verdict when insurers refuse to settle fairly.

Motor Vehicle, Truck, and Motorcycle Collision Claims

Traffic wrecks on South Carolina highways frequently result in devastating bodily injuries and financial turmoil. The firm provides aggressive representation for individuals injured in car accidents, rear-end collisions, distracted driving wrecks, and crashes caused by impaired motorists. Recognizing the devastating physics of commercial freight impacts, Attorney Berlinsky investigates complex truck accidents involving eighteen-wheelers and delivery vehicles, uncovering driver log falsifications and federal safety infractions. The practice also champions the rights of injured riders in motorcycle accidents, disproving common defense biases to secure full financial recovery for orthopedic trauma, road rash, and long-term disability.

Complex Medical Malpractice and Nursing Home Neglect

Medical negligence claims require sophisticated understanding of both statutory thresholds and healthcare protocols. Under South Carolina law, medical malpractice lawsuits involve mandatory pre-suit mediation, specialized expert witness affidavits, and statutory non-economic damages caps. Attorney Berlinsky possesses the experience to navigate these procedural hurdles, representing patients harmed by diagnostic errors, surgical oversights, medication blunders, and hospital negligence. Furthermore, the firm advocates for vulnerable senior citizens harmed by nursing home malpractice, holding long-term care facilities accountable for bedsores, untreated infections, falls, and systemic institutional neglect.

Slip and Fall Premises Liability and Construction Litigation

Property owners and commercial managers have a legal duty to maintain premises in a reasonably safe condition. Philip Berlinsky Law represents individuals who suffer slip and fall injury incidents resulting from wet floors, defective steps, hazardous walkways, and inadequate lighting in commercial spaces. Additionally, drawing on extensive knowledge of building codes, renovations, and property defects, Attorney Berlinsky handles construction litigation, collaborating with architects, code enforcement specialists, and structural appraisers to mitigate client losses and preserve vital forensic evidence.
