Areas of Practice / Road Defects
The laws regarding road construction and road defects are especially important in South Carolina, where it has been said there are only two seasons: Hot and construction. The fact is, a great many injuries occur on our roads and highways every year that are due to roadway defects, improper lane configurations, improper signage and faulty road construction. These cases generally can be brought under one common law: negligence. It takes an experienced road injury attorney to help you with these kinds of challenging cases.
A typical common law road injury negligence case would be a contractor neglecting to fill in a large pothole, which in turn causes a tire blow out and an injury-producing accident. Another example might be a contractor failing to post adequate barricades and/or signage to divert traffic from a potentially dangerous area of construction. These and other road construction situations are common causes of accidents involving serious injuries and death for which compensation can be awarded.
