Award Winning
An unexpected accident can change your life in a moment leaving you in pain, unable to work, and overwhelmed by medical bills. When someone else’s negligence causes your injury, you deserve justice, accountability, and the full compensation the law allows.
At Ted Law Firm, our North Augusta personal injury attorneys fight for victims across Aiken County, North Augusta, Belvedere, Clearwater, and the entire Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). We take on insurance companies, corporations, and negligent drivers, so you can focus on healing.
Local Roads, Local Representation
North Augusta’s rapid growth, busy intersections, and proximity to Augusta make it a hotspot for serious accidents. According to the South Carolina Department of Public Safety (SCDPS), Aiken County reports more than 4,800 crashes every year, resulting in thousands of injuries.
We’ve represented victims injured on:
- Georgia Avenue – heavy commuter corridor with frequent rear-end collisions.
- Martintown Road – speeding, unsafe turns, and distracted driving.
- Atomic Road – commercial truck and industrial traffic crashes.
- East Buena Vista Avenue – dangerous intersections and pedestrian risks.
- I-20 / Exit 1 – high-speed crashes involving out-of-state drivers.
We know North Augusta — and we know how to win against insurers who try to minimize your claim.
