Troy focuses his practice on representing the rights of workers who are injured on the job, ensuring his clients make the recovery they deserve. Prior to joining Roden Law, he defended workers’ compensation claims on behalf of Employers and Insurance Carriers for claims arising under the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Act and the Federal Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act.

He ensures clients are compensated for their work injuries and that they receive the necessary future medical treatment if their disability is permanent.
