Automobile Accidents

The aftermath of a vehicle collision can be devastating for an injured person.  You might not know who is going to pay your medical bills, and how you will support your family while you recover.  You need to know the legal ramifications of your own actions, too.  The auto attorneys at the Michael Jeffcoat Firm represent people all over South Carolina who have been seriously injured in car, motorcycle or truck accidents.  Automobile accidents require experienced handling in order to ensure that you are fully compensated for your losses.  We can offer critical advice in preserving evidence and preparing your case.  We represent those injured in car accidents, and crashes caused by defective products or design (such as defective seatbelts, tires or gas tanks).  Motor vehicle accidents also may involve wrongful death, hit-and-runs, drunk drivers, speeding, failure to yield right-of-way, 18-wheeler collisions, and rollovers.

Under South Carolina law, if you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident that was caused by another person’s carelessness or recklessness, you may be entitled to recover for:

Past medical expenses
Present medical expenses
Future medical expenses
Loss of ability to perform household services
Lost wages
Loss of earning capacity
Intangible losses
Loss of consortium
Property damages
Punitive damages

Even in less serious cases, you should thoroughly examined by a medical doctor, because what may seem like minor injuries can develop into major health problems.  Even if you don’t have broken bones, cuts, or bruises, you may have sustained a connective-tissue injury, which could cause long-term problems, if left untreated.

Accident victims and the families of those who have died in traffic accidents face a tough situation, complicated by the complex maze of South Carolina insurance laws and legal issues.  We want to help.

Insurance companies are businesses.  They are mostly concerned with limiting their payout.  Your needs are secondary.  The insurance company may present what you think is an attractive settlement offer, but it is in your best interests to contact an experienced injury attorney, who will put your needs before the insurance company interests.  It is always best to discuss your situation with a skilled attorney before you decide to enter into discussions with an insurance representative.

By working with The Michael Jeffcoat Firm, an injured person can have some control and can participate in ensuring that their rights and interests are protected.  Your choice of an auto attorney is very important in auto accident cases in South Carolina.  If you or a loved one has been injured in an automobile accident, CONTACT US ONLINE, OR SIMPLY CALL US AT 1-800-827-7898 FOR A FREE ATTORNEY CONSULTATION.  WE WILL RESPOND RIGHT AWAY.
