Our Practice Areas

We handle a wide range of personal injury cases, including:

Car Accidents

From minor fender benders to catastrophic collisions, car accidents are among the most common causes of personal injury. Whether the accident was caused by distracted driving, speeding, or negligence, we’ll fight for fair compensation. In Maryland, drivers must carry liability insurance, but pursuing a claim often requires proving fault under the state’s negligence law.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable on the road. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, we’ll help you hold negligent drivers accountable and recover damages for your injuries. According to the Maryland Department of Transportation, Each year in Maryland, an average of 73 motorcycle riders and passengers are killed in traffic crashes.

Truck Accidents

Accidents involving large trucks often result in severe injuries or fatalities due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. Our team of personal injury lawyers understands the specific regulations governing trucking companies and drivers, which helps us build strong cases for our clients.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one in an accident is devastating. If someone else’s negligence caused their death, you have the right to seek justice through a wrongful death claim. In Maryland, certain family members can bring an action to recover damages for loss of companionship, financial support, and more.

Client Testimonial

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!

Why Choose Southern Maryland Law?

Southern Maryland Law Firm.

We are your community law firm

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.
