A personal injury is a specific type of legal claim. It refers to harm to an individual, either bodily injury or emotional damage, caused by negligence, recklessness, or intentional wrongdoing. Many people are uncertain whether or not they have a claim for their injuries. During a consultation, a Columbia personal injury lawyer will assess your claim, discuss potentially liable parties, and outline a strategy for pursuing justice.

At Ponce Law, our attorneys handle all types of personal injury cases in Columbia and the surrounding area. We can help you get justice when a wrongdoer’s actions—or inactions—have harmed you.
For many, the most familiar personal injury claims are motor vehicle accidents involving a car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, or pedestrian. We can fight insurance companies to ensure you receive full compensation, hold negligent parties accountable, advocate for your rights on the roads, and work to recover damages for your injuries.
Other personal injury accidents include slip and fall injuries and other premise liability claims. Property owners must keep their property safe for lawful visitors—and sometimes even for trespassers. We can hold them accountable for preventable accidents, including dog bites and other injuries from unruly animals.
In addition to personal injury claims, we can help you with workplace injuries. Many personal injury claims are covered under workers’ compensation coverage, and we can help you through that process. We can also look for third-party liability and assist you with any additional claims that you may have.
When the wrongdoer has insurance, many victims assume that they will be protected. However, insurance companies are in the business of making a profit, which means minimizing their payouts. At Ponce Law, our Columbia personal injury attorneys will fight to recover every dollar you deserve, including:
During an initial consultation, our team can go over the differences in the types of compensation and provide initial advice about which ones may apply in your case. As we develop more evidence, we can focus on tailoring your case to maximize your payout.
The aftermath of a personal injury can be confusing, intimidating, and financially stressful. It is important to get help quickly after a personal injury accident. Insurers and their lawyers may try to get you to admit to wrongdoing or accept a lowball settlement offer.
