Practice Areas

Carr Legal Group handles a broad spectrum of personal injury and wrongful death matters across the Lowcountry region.

Car Accidents. The firm represents victims of rear-end collisions, T-bone crashes, drunk driving accidents, distracted driving incidents, and pedestrian accidents. Their attorneys pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. The practice manages insurance negotiations on behalf of clients and handles cases throughout Beaufort, Jasper, Colleton, Hampton, and Allendale counties.

Truck Accidents. Commercial truck collisions present unique legal challenges due to federal regulations governing the trucking industry and the involvement of multiple potentially liable parties. The firm’s $2.7 million trucking accident result reflects its experience with these cases.

Wrongful Death. When a preventable accident results in a fatality, Carr Legal Group represents surviving family members. The firm’s attorneys handle fatal accidents involving vehicles, medical malpractice, workplace incidents, and defective products. They guide families through South Carolina’s wrongful death filing requirements and pursue compensation for funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, and emotional suffering. Surviving spouses, children, and parents may be eligible to bring claims under state law.

Slip and Fall / Premises Liability. Property owner negligence resulting in injuries from wet floors, broken handrails, uneven surfaces, and inadequate hazard warnings falls within the firm’s practice. The attorneys investigate accident circumstances, gather evidence, and establish property owner liability.

Product Liability. Injuries caused by defective products, products with inadequate instructions, or products missing safety safeguards (such as equipment lacking automatic shutoff features) are handled by the firm. These cases can involve design defects, manufacturing defects, or failures to provide adequate warnings.

Workers Compensation. The firm represents injured workers seeking benefits, with a recorded result of $575,000 in a workers compensation claim. These cases involve navigating the administrative and legal requirements specific to South Carolina’s workers compensation system.

Dram Shop Liability. When establishments serve alcohol to visibly intoxicated patrons who then cause injuries to others, the firm pursues claims against those establishments under dram shop laws.

Nursing Home Abuse. The practice handles cases involving abuse and neglect in care facilities.

Bicycle and Motorcycle Accidents. Riders injured in collisions receive representation from the firm, which handles the particular insurance and liability issues that arise when cyclists and motorcyclists are struck by motor vehicles.

Client Focus

Carr Legal Group operates entirely on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients pay nothing upfront and owe no fees unless the firm recovers compensation on their behalf. Free consultations allow prospective clients to discuss their situations and understand their legal options before making any commitment.

The firm’s bilingual capability in English and Spanish serves the diverse communities of the Lowcountry, where a significant Spanish-speaking population lives and works. This language accessibility ensures that injury victims are not excluded from legal representation due to a language barrier.

The practice emphasizes personalized legal strategies tailored to each client’s circumstances rather than a standardized approach. For slip and fall cases, the attorneys build individualized liability claims based on the specific conditions and evidence at each accident site. For wrongful death matters, the team provides guidance through both the emotional and legal complexities of pursuing a claim after losing a family member.

The firm’s recorded results, including multi-million dollar recoveries in trucking, car accident, and wrongful death cases, demonstrate its ability to handle cases of significant value in the Lowcountry market.
