also known as Ryan Montgomery Law
Ryan is South Carolina born and raised and has worked since he was 14 years old starting with bagged groceries. He continued to work through high school and swung a hammer working construction during college. Ryan is the first in his family to ever graduate college.
Ryan is a former insurance company lawyer and as a former insurance company attorney, he knows first-hand how they work. Adjusters deny claims. Some deny your medical care, some deny your money and they try to pay as little possible on your case. Finally, he’d had enough of taking orders that would potentially harm the injured in South Carolina and knew the only way to make a difference was to switch sides to help the injured using his 20 years of experience to help those who have been severely injured in South Carolina whether it be a workers’ compensation injury, a car accident or trucking accident.
Ryan is married with 3 boys. When not working he enjoys the outdoors and giving back to the community through “We’ve Got Your Back”, a community initiative where Ryan Montgomery Law donates pre-stuffed backpacks to local area public schools.

I really thought I was proactive and interviewed several lawyers. I was advised to hire one. He used big words and made me feel important and that I was a good case. I hired him. I called his office several times asking what was next. The paralegal told me your job is just to get better! Well af...

Ryan did my Workmans Comp. case and did a fantastic job! My case was handled very quickly and professionally. Ryan and Kim made me feel comfortable answering my questions. They did a great job.. I am grateful for all of their help.
Thank you for your review!

I met Ryan in Greenville and liked him but I listened to some family members' recommendation and went with someone else. The other firm dragged along and did absolutely nothing for 2 years. They were waiting on a phone call with an offer. I went back to Ryan and he had my case settled out of court...
We appreciate your thoughtful review. We are pleased we could help you with your case.

Ryan did a great job looked at my case sat down with me reviewed my options with me on terms I could understand was always prompt on returning my phone calls and went out of his way to answer my question I would highly recommend Mr Montgomery to anyone
I appreciate your recommendation and kind words.
"I endorse this lawyer. Ryan formerly worked for me when we were both insurance defense lawyers at a large local firm. In that arena, he was very easy to work with and was an extremely fast learner. Since then we have both left the large firm to pursue other avenues, but as a Workers' Compensation and/or Personal Injury lawyer, you could not be in better hands."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is very knowledgeable and capable and would be an asset as your representative."
"Ryan has a very good understanding of workers compensation, I would highly recommend him to anyone that is in need of an attorney."
"An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of his clients and getting them the most favorable result possible."
"I endorse Attorney Montgomery. From his answers and time on Avvo, it is clear he is dedicated to serving those in need and his clients. It's rare that lawyers spend so much valuable time helping the community, for free, and I applaud him for doing it to such a great level. Kudos."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ryan is a very good attorney who fights hard for his clients. I would definitely recommend him. He is very knowledgeable and works hard for his clients."
"I endorse Ryan Montgomery for all Worker's Compensation claims. If you are injured on the job, give him a call."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Montgomery is an excellent trial lawyer and has extensive knowledge of workers compensation and personal injury law."
"Ryan is an excellent attorney. He gets positive results for his clients and is a skilled trial lawyer. I recommend clients to him for workers compensation and personal injury cases."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have been on the opposite side of Ryan in several cases, including workers compensation, insurance coverage and construction cases. Ryan knows his cases, the law, is a zealous advocate for his clients, but also practices in such a way as to not create additional work, and exense, for all involved. He handles cases the way they should be handled."
