Common Types of Car Accidents in Summerville
The mix of local traffic, commuters, delivery vehicles, and distracted drivers means collisions can happen in a variety of ways. We represent clients involved in:
- Rear-end collisions on congested routes like Main Street or Dorchester Road
- T-bone accidents at intersections with poor visibility or reckless turns
- Head-on crashes on rural roads or during improper passing maneuvers
- Multi-vehicle pileups on I‑26 during high-speed traffic or bad weather
- Sideswipe accidents during unsafe lane changes or merging

Whether your accident happened on a busy street in town or a back road outside the city limits, our team is ready to investigate your case and fight for your recovery.
Serious Injuries Require Serious Legal Action

We represent Summerville clients who have suffered:
- Whiplash and soft tissue damage
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and concussions
- Spinal cord damage and herniated discs
- Fractures and orthopedic injuries
- Internal bleeding or organ damage
- Burn injuries, lacerations, and permanent scarring
- Emotional trauma and anxiety after the crash
If you’ve lost a loved one in a fatal car accident, we also handle wrongful death claims on behalf of grieving families.
Who’s Liable in a Car Accident?
South Carolina is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who caused the accident is legally responsible for damages. Our firm works to establish liability through:
- Police reports and citations
- Eyewitness interviews
- Traffic camera or dashcam footage
- Accident reconstruction analysis
- Cell phone records and vehicle data
We don’t rely on the insurance company’s version of the story. Instead, we conduct our own independent investigation to protect your interests and maximize your claim.
