About Patrick Eugene Knie
Patrick Eugene Knie has devoted more than 35 years to advocating for individuals affected by injuries or wrongful death. Specializing in personal injury claims, he manages cases involving car and truck accidents, workplace injuries, defective products, nursing home abuse, and medical malpractice. Patrick's commitment to his clients is evident as he does not represent insurance companies or corporations, focusing solely on the needs of individuals.
Patrick thrives on the challenge of facing large corporations on behalf of his clients, having tried hundreds of cases with a readiness to present them before a jury. His dedication to making a positive impact in his clients' lives is reflected in the gratitude he receives, from thank-you notes to summer vegetables from their gardens.
Employing the latest technology to strengthen his cases, Patrick utilizes "day in a life" videos, accident reconstruction experts, and PowerPoint presentations. He collaborates with vocational experts, economists to establish financial loss, and life care experts when necessary.
Regularly sought by fellow attorneys for assistance in complex or high-stakes litigation, Patrick also manages class action lawsuits and cases involving multiple claimants. He is licensed to practice law in South Carolina, the Federal District Court for the District of South Carolina, and the United States Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, with appearances in other state and federal courts for intricate legal matters.
A firm believer in the legal system, particularly the civil justice system, Patrick holds that the jury system is the optimal method for resolving disputes among citizens.
