Details
Andrew “Drew” W. Creech is a partner at the Elrod Pope Law Firm. Based in the firm’s office in Rock Hill, South Carolina, he represents clients throughout York County and other parts of the state. Mr. Creech attended the University of South Carolina as an undergraduate and received a Bachelor of Arts in 2004. He remained in Columbia for his legal education at the University of South Carolina School of Law, and he was an editor of the Real Property, Trust & Estate Law Journal before being awarded his Juris Doctor in 2008.
After he graduated from law school, Mr. Creech served a clerkship for a judge on the 9th Judicial Circuit in Charleston, South Carolina, before entering private practice. He now divides his caseload between workers’ compensation matters and personal injury and wrongful death litigation.
In his workers’ compensation practice, Mr. Creech helps clients who have been injured on the job seek the benefits they deserve under their employer’s insurance coverage. These benefits can include medical treatment and, in some cases, a percentage of wages that they lost during their recovery period when they were unable to return to their jobs. Mr. Creech assists them with the preparation and timely submission of the required claim documentation, and he represents them in subsequent appeals hearings in the event that the claim is disputed or denied.
Mr. Creech’s personal injury clients are people who have been harmed as the result of the negligence of other parties in automobile accidents and other events, and he has been able to obtain significant amounts of compensation on their behalf. He has been admitted to practice in South Carolina since 2008, and he is also admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina.
