Car accidents, often called car wrecks or car crashes, are a leading cause of injury and financial stress across South Carolina. A single car crash can leave you overwhelmed with medical bills, missed work, physical pain, and emotional trauma.
If you’ve been injured or involved in a car accident in South Carolina, Spartan Law can help you secure fair compensation, navigate insurance claims, and rebuild your life.
Car accidents are unfortunately common in South Carolina. According to the South Carolina Department of Public Safety (SCDPS):
Every 4 minutes, a traffic collision occurs.
On average, there’s one injury collision every 13 minutes.
A fatal crash occurs approximately every 9 hours.
These statistics underline the importance of driving safely—and knowing what steps to take if an accident occurs.
Immediately after a car wreck, it’s crucial to:
Check injuries and call emergency services if needed.
Report the accident to law enforcement.
Document the accident thoroughly (photos, videos, witness contact info).
Seek medical attention even if injuries seem minor.
Avoid speaking directly to insurance adjusters without legal guidance.
Contact a South Carolina car accident lawyer as soon as possible.
Injuries like back and neck trauma are common after car accidents and can result in significant compensation. The average settlement for car accident back and neck injury varies widely—typically ranging from $10,000 to well over $100,000, depending on factors such as severity, medical costs, impact on quality of life, and liability.

However, every case is unique. Spartan Law carefully evaluates your case to ensure maximum compensation for your specific injuries and suffering.
A car accident settlement is compensation negotiated with insurance companies or obtained through the courts to cover your damages, including:
Medical expenses
Lost wages and earning capacity
Property damage
Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
Long-term care or rehabilitation
It’s crucial to have experienced legal counsel, as insurance companies commonly offer lower settlements to unrepresented victims.
I am a 78 years old. When someone totaled my car and left me injured, Thomas dealt directly with Progressive and Enterprise to coordinate a rental vehicle for me! And he did not charge me!

No upfront fees – you pay nothing unless we win your case.
Fees are typically around 33% of the total compensation received, but this may vary slightly depending on case specifics.
Transparency: All fees are clearly explained and agreed upon from the outset.
We believe everyone deserves justice, regardless of their financial situation.
I was disabled 20 years ago but I can still walk with a cane. When I was forced to return my rental, the insurance check I received for the damage to my car had still not been cleared by my bank. Home is only 2 miles away, so I started walking. I called Thomas to let him know and he said he was close by so he came and picked me up off the side of the road and drove me home. Eternally grateful!
