South Carolina Vehicle Accident Lawyers

The temperate climate in South Carolina, and specifically in the Columbia, Orangeburg, Lexington, Aiken, Sumter and Charleston areas, affords residents with the opportunity to ride in a variety of "open-air" vehicles throughout the year.  Motorcycles, convertibles, bicycles, and ATVs are frequently seen on back roads as well as on major highways in South Carolina.  These vehicles often share the road with tractor trailers, pickup trucks, SUVs and many other vehicles. 
With so many different shapes and sizes of vehicles on roads and travel lanes, accidents are inevitable, and thousands of people are injured each year in vehicle collisions.

Unfortunately, the number of those dying in crashes in South Carolina is on the rise.  According to the South Carolina Department of Public Safety, 818 people died in South Carolina auto accidents in 2011, and 102 motorcyclists died.  Motorcyclist deaths are up nearly 25 percent in just one year.

The attorneys at the Louthian Law Firm, P.A. understand that the pain and suffering that comes from an accident is not only physical. The emotional toll on a victim and his or family can be devastating, and mounting medical bills can add to the stress associated with accidents. Serious injuries sustained in an accident can require months of hospital care and follow-up rehabilitation. Many people are unable to return to work, resulting in lost income.  Families recovering after a death can struggle for years to come to terms with a typically preventable accident.
