Attorney Andrew Johnson

Bar Admission: South Carolina

Andrew Johnson is a personal injury attorney at Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC, an award-winning South Carolina personal injury and workers’ compensation law firm. With two office locations, the team at Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC has recovered millions of dollars in compensation for clients following car accidents, truck accidents, work incidents, and other accident types resulting in injury or wrongful death.

Andrew joined the team in November of 2025, bringing with him over ten years of personal injury legal experience. Prior to joining our firm, Andrew ran a reputable, single-lawyer personal injury practice based out of Blythewood, SC. His firm developed a reputation of providing compassionate legal care, while prioritizing client communication and results inside and outside of the courtroom.

When Andrew’s law firm started outgrowing a single-lawyer practice, and he had the opportunity to work with the attorneys and staff at Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC, he knew he couldn’t pass it up. The values Andrew built his practice on – communication, results, empathy, and professionalism – matched perfectly with Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC’s client-focused and results-driven approach. Joining the C&T team gave Andrew additional tools, resources, and opportunities to help injured people throughout the state.

“Learning about new clients and their families, watching them go from one of the hardest times in their lives after being injured to a clean slate of health and monetary reimbursement, and then continuing those relationships after the conclusion of a case, that’s the part of my job I enjoy the most.”

Andrew grew up in Greenwood, South Carolina, in a family of attorneys. Growing up, he saw the community around him help one another, no matter the task, which gave Andrew an understanding of and appreciation for the value of good people. He knew he wanted to help people through his career.

Andrew graduated with a B.S. in Business from Franklin University and earned his J.D. from the University of South Carolina. He is an active member of the South Carolina Bar, Richland County Bar Association, Greenwood Country Bar Association, Young Lawyers Division, the South Carolina Association for Justice, and more.

“Law is intriguing and ever changing, which makes it interesting on a daily basis. Personal injury law allows me to be immersed in the law while also building relationships with clients.”

Andrew and his wife, Patti, have two wonderful children, Connor and Reau. When he is not working, he is spending time with his family, reading, watching football, doing yardwork, or cooking.

Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC | Client Focused. Results Driven.

Since opening the doors in 2017, Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC has taken a client focused and results driven approach to every case, from the beginning of the case to the resolution and beyond.

In his prior role, Andrew often worked with Cavanaugh & Thickens, LLC Founders and Attorneys Eric Cavanaugh and Joe Thickens . He noted:

“I saw how Cavanaugh & Thickens treated every client the way I would want my family to be taken care of.”

The alignment between Andrew’s and Cavanaugh & Thickens’ clear dedication to clients and their goals for their cases were a natural fit.
