Car accident cases range drastically in scope and seriousness, from minor fender benders to catastrophic events that devastate the lives of those involved. We know that not every situation requires the expertise of an attorney, particularly when there are no crucial elements in jeopardy. But in cases in which the outcome can affect your physical, emotional, or financial health, you need to know that there is someone with professional experience who cares personally about the result of your case. Our team of Columbia car accident lawyers at The Solomon Law Group strive to protect our clients and keep our local roads safe for all of us.

An auto collision can have a far-reaching impact on your life and the lives of your loved ones. You may find that deciding what legal action to take, fixing your vehicle or searching for a replacement, making provisions to take the time you need off work, and arranging for your family’s transportation needs leaves you little time to devote to your own healing and recovery.

For many people, there is nothing more enjoyable than hitching up a trailer and going away for the weekend with loved ones. During the summer, it is common to see the roads filled with boats heading for the shore or campers heading for the woods. For other individuals, trailering is a daily part of their employment, and they depend for their livelihood on the practical, rather than recreational, uses of trailers.

When we hear about dangerous car accidents, we likely associate them with highways and high speeds. But you don’t need to be traveling at high speeds to sustain serious or potentially fatal injuries. These accidents could happen when you’re in an accident going at 40 mph.

When you’re driving on the road, there are many things that you need to pay attention to. Not only do you need to focus on where you’re going and the other cars around you, but you also need to pay attention to the road and make sure you’re avoiding any roadway defects that might be present and could cause an accident. When your car or another driver’s car encounters a roadway defect, you could get into a collision.

Intersections are generally the most dangerous places for drivers and pedestrians because they’re where cross traffic all come together and have to navigate each other. There are some intersections in Columbia that are more dangerous than others. In fact, one of our intersections ranks nationally for being one of the deadliest in the United States.
