Personal Injury Law Firm Areas of Practice

Our personal injury law firm offers a wide range of legal services designed to help Accokeek residents recover after an accident. Here are a few of the personal injury cases we handle.

Car Accidents

Accidents happen every day, and if you’ve been injured in a car crash, our attorneys will help you recover for medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress, among other damages.

Slip and Fall Accidents

Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe premises. If you’ve been injured due to unsafe conditions, we’ll hold the responsible parties accountable.

Medical Malpractice

Medical errors can have life-altering consequences. We fight for justice and compensation in cases where healthcare professionals have failed to meet the standard of care.

Workplace Injuries

If you’ve been hurt on the job, our team will ensure that your rights are protected and help you pursue workers’ compensation or other forms of relief.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one is devastating. If someone else’s negligence caused the death, we’ll seek justice on behalf of your family and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Understanding Maryland’s Personal Injury Laws

Personal injury claims in Maryland are governed by several statutes and regulations that can impact your case. One important aspect to understand is Maryland’s contributory negligence rule. According to this rule, if you are found to be even 1% at fault for the accident, you may be barred from recovering any compensation. This makes it crucial to work with an experienced personal injury attorney who can build a strong case proving the other party’s negligence.

Maryland also has a statute of limitations for personal injury cases, generally three years from the date of the injury. This means you have a limited window to file your claim, so it’s important to act quickly. Our team will ensure that your case is filed in a timely manner, preserving your right to compensation.

Local Knowledge That Matters

As personal injury lawyers serving the Accokeek community, we’re deeply familiar with the local area and legal environment. We know the courts, the insurance companies, and the opposition you’ll likely face. This local knowledge allows us to anticipate challenges and create strategies that give you the best chance at a successful outcome.

Our team also has access to local resources, such as medical experts and accident reconstruction professionals, who can strengthen your case and ensure you’re in the best possible position to win.

I was involved in a motorcycle collision in 2013, it required a year of physical therapy, and 38 days in the hospital. Tucker Clagett worked with my wife and I while managing all legal affairs for us. I had to only focus on my recover while he and his staff handled all other aspects of the claim process. Professional and fair in all aspects.

My consultation with D'Erra Jackson was excellent and very professional. I felt that she was very patient with me and answered all of my questions. She prepared me for what to expect and did not sugar coat the truth without being crass or offensive. She also took the time to give me options on what I should try to make sure I received a fair deal. With her preparation, we were able to work out an agreement that works for my situation. Thank you!

Several years ago, I used this law firm to help me write a will after my divorce. This year, I went to them again, this time with a renter dispute. I was very surprised when I found out that the consultation was free because I was a former client. Plus, I still received the same excellent service and legal help that I needed. I will definitely continue to use Southern Maryland Law for all of my legal needs.

Why Choose Southern Maryland Law?

Southern Maryland Law Firm.

We are your community law firm

We have been a vibrant part of Waldorf for over 60 years. Waldorf has been very good to us, and we try to repay that kindness with community service. We believe giving back to our Waldorf community is part of our job.

A bridge

The senior law firm in Waldorf

We are the oldest law firm in Waldorf, and the 2nd oldest in all of Southern Maryland! We have stayed busy because we get results and treat our clients right. We would never have lasted this long if we did not.

Large enough, yet small enough

We are large enough to provide full service, but small enough to focus on you. The large firms that have satellite offices in Waldorf have dozens of attorneys who don’t live here. They use case managers to handle their clients. At Southern Maryland Law, you will be a name – not a number.

Beautiful landscape with sunset.

Not your grandfather’s law firm

While our firm has been around a long time, we are not what you think lawyers are like. We pride ourselves on being a little more approachable, a little more casual, and a little more likeable than the average lawyer. We are real people with real solutions to your real problems.
