Bio

Catastrophic injury and mass tort lawyer, S. Randall (“Randy”) Hood, founding partner of McGowan, Hood & Felder, LLC, has dedicated his legal career to helping those who have suffered serious injuries or lost loved ones because of someone else’s negligence. With over twenty-five years of experience helping injured people fight back against those who hurt them, he focuses his practice on representing individuals who have been catastrophically injured in a preventable accident or representing persons who have been wronged by an act of a corporation on a large-scale basis.

His catastrophic injury practice includes persons injured in a medical malpractice case, pharmaceutical liability case, tractor trailer collision or some other serious incident. The catastrophic injuries suffered by some of his clients have included, paralysis, brain injury, amputation, cerebral palsy and death. Hood also represents persons who have suffered some type of injury due to wrongful conduct on behalf of a corporation or organized entity. This type of situation presents an opportunity for Hood to represent a class of individuals (class action) or many individual claims in a consolidated action against corporate entities (Multi District Litigation, or MDL).
While Hood’s practice in South Carolina focuses on catastrophic personal injury cases, his work in mass torts is national in scope. His success and expertise has afforded him the opportunity to be the featured speaker at numerous seminars focusing on litigation and medical malpractice. He also has spoken at annual conventions, state conventions, and at South Carolina Association for Justice events. He has written articles for publication in multiple mediums. Hood is also a contributing author to the book, Consumer Advantage, released in 2012.

Hood is the former president of the South Carolina Association for Justice. He is a member of the South Carolina Association for Justice, American Association for Justice, National Trial Lawyers Association, Southern Trial Lawyers Association and Birth Injury Litigation Group. He has been certified as a specialist in medical malpractice by the American Board of Professional Liability Attorneys and is licensed to practice before the South Carolina Circuit and federal courts, Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court.
