Practice Areas
At the Knapp Law Firm, PC we are committed to our role as a legal resource for identifying and protecting your personal rights, public benefits and connecting you to financial and community resources. We’ve served central South Carolina for nearly two decades. Let our experience help your family with Elder Law, Social Security, Family Law and Small Business Law.
Elder Law – Americans are faced with complex issues regarding retirement, estate planning, aging in place and long-term care. We provide real life solutions to the vulnerabilities associated with aging, including Medicaid asset protection, nursing home admissions, simple and complex wills, living and spendthrift trusts, guardian and conservatorships and all aspects of probate. A simple will, advance directive or survivorship deed could save your loved ones thousands of dollars in probate. Planning ahead means a better quality of life for you and your family.
Disability Law – We take a holistic approach to Social Security and SSI disability, Workers Compensation, IEPs and Special Needs Trusts. We stay informed about the law, fight hard for your rights and benefits, and let you know about community resources that might help. Some legal work is done on a contingency fee basis. Let our experience work for you.
Family Law – Working with an approachable law firm can make all the difference in an area of law that is full of emotions. From adoptions to prenuptial agreements, paternity disputes, separations and divorces, child custody and child support, and even name changes, we help you deal with the hard stuff in a caring manner.
Small Business Law – If you are investing significant time, effort and money into your dream business, then be sure to invest in proper legal planning for startup, growth, and the sale or turn over of the family business to the next generation. Attorney Knapp can help you select and create the best business structure, file for licenses with local and state agencies, help you understand your employer obligations, develop contracts to protect your personal assets in the event of disability or death. Proper planning is the foundation to your success.
