Roy Willey
I represent injured people to give them a fighting chance in the legal system.
A father, husband, son and trial lawyer. A lawyer for the people who has never represented a mega-corporation or insurance company.
I have chosen to devote my life to making sure the most important cases - the peoples' cases - are given a fighting chance in the court of law. We will go to trial if necessary, and only settle if the amount is fair and you approve it.
Your case is important to me, because your case is about you and YOU are important to me. Every case is a cause.

Roy Willey Discusses the Impact of Anti-LGBTQ Curriculum Law in SC – and the Need to Take It Down
Roy Willey Discusses the Impact of Anti-LGBTQ Curriculum Law in SC – and the Need to Take It Down. On February 26, 2020, the National Center for Lesbian Rights and Lambda Legal, along with private counsel Womble Bond Dickinson, Brazil & Burke, and law professor Clifford Rosky, filed a federal lawsuit challenging a South Carolina statute that prohibits public school health education from including any discussion of same-sex relationships except in the context of sexually transmitted diseases.
Sidebar Conference with Roy T. Willey
Lawyers Weekly’s Pat Murphy talks with Roy T. Willey IV, one of the lead attorneys in class action litigation across the country over virtual learning against colleges and universities.
- Q. What is the quickest way to fire my personal injury lawyer I just hired? I’m in South Carolina. Need a new one!
- A: In South Carolina, like most states, the client owns the file. Therefore, to fire an attorney all you have to do is reach out to their office (preferably in writing via email / letter) notify them that you no longer need their services and ask for a full and complete copy of your file. Your next attorney is going to want to review what work, if any, has already been done and information gathered so be sure to ask for a full copy of your file (electronically is best). Sorry for the experience you have had with this particular lawyer, and hope you get the help you deserve.
- Q. How long are blood and tissue samples saved in SC for the purpose of lawsuit? Who can obtain them!?
- A: First, let me express my sincerest condolences on the loss of your mother under such unexpected circumstances. I am so sorry to hear the tragedy you are experiencing. Second, with respect to your specific question the answer is that it depends. Everything should be documented in the medical records, and that is what a reviewing attorney will look to in order to make an initial determination. Medical malpractice cases take much more time to review than other types of cases because they are record specific, and in South Carolina we have several hurdles to clear before one can even be filed - for example the requirement that an expert affidavit from a professional in the same field accompany a Notice of Intent to File Suit. I would recommend you follow up with the attorney you have sent everything to and just ask for a simple timeframe on when they expect to be able to make a decision. Chances are that they are just going through everything and doing that initial expert review to see if there is an expert that will sign off on an affidavit to allow them to file your claim. Best wishes for getting the answers you want and deserve.
- Q. is there a place that the public can check on wins or jury cases for a lawyer?
- A: Yes, if you know what you are looking for. When hiring a civil litigation attorney you should ALWAYS ask about their success in the courtroom with jury verdicts. This is not because your case will absolutely go to trial, it may not, but insurance companies know the lawyers that will go the distance, and know what the lawyer's results are. An attorney should always be willing to point you to specific results that you can then verify. Most of these are publicly available, but in general, there is not one place where you can find them all. Many lawyers have results listed on their website and so you start there, but your inquiry should go deeper.
