Practicing law has allowed Wes Allison to marry his passions for digging up facts and telling stories with helping his clients pursue justice against powerful institutions.
Before practicing law, Wes spent 18 years as a journalist, digging deep to bring transparency and accountability to all levels of government and other large organizations. The recipient of numerous state and national reporting awards, Wes covered local South Carolina politics, government, and crime before moving on to write about medicine, national politics, Congress, and the White House.
He has also covered some of our nation's biggest stories of the past two decades, including the war in Iraq, where he was embedded with an infantry unit of the 101st Airborne Division. His series about the politics of embryonic stem cell research earned the Scripps Howard Foundation's National Journalism Award for Washington coverage.
Now Wes puts his investigative and story-telling skills to work for clients who have suffered serious personal injury from medical malpractice, dental malpractice, trucking accidents, motor vehicle collisions, abuse, and neglect. He is licensed in the federal vaccine injury claims court, and thus able to handle claims arising from those rare instances when someone has a serious reaction to a vaccine.
Wes also represents families and small businesses in insurance and contractual disputes.
