You're probably used to sharing the road with commercial trucks, especially if you drive on the freeways regularly. Unfortunately, you may not be able to avoid a collision with these large vehicles, even if you're a careful, experienced driver. Additionally, a semi-truck or 18-wheeler can weigh up to 25 times more than a typical car, making truck accident crashes especially serious.
Motorcycles and bicycles are a popular and safe method of transportation if everyone obeys the rules of the road. However, the injuries that result from accidents caused by negligent drivers involving motorcycles and bicycles tend to be much more serious due to the lack of physical protection they provide.
South Carolina is home to beautiful beaches and coastline, and of course, the lovely Lake Murray. Although these waterways are a big part of what makes South Carolina special, the actions of irresponsible boaters can often cause serious damages. Unfortunately, boating accident injuries can be very serious and, in some cases, even deadly.

When I first walked in, I can honestly say that I was nervous, but when I met my Attorney Stephen Kryzton and he talked to me about my case I felt a sense of relief, I felt confident that they were going to work as hard as they can for me and that gave me hope that everything was going to be alright. Very professional and cordial at the same time.

My name is Greg toniolo and I am a relatively new client to kavanaugh thickens law firm in Columbia South Carolina.... I would like to extend an extreme amount of gratitude towards cavanaugh thickens law firm and especially to my lawyer specifically Nick Scorzewski...... after my injury I was getting the runaround from several different attorneys… all claiming to put me at their highest concern needless to say I wasted weeks upon weeks of time shuffling through attorneys all feeding me the same line..... so after weeks and weeks I just took a shot in the dark and googled attorneys in Columbia

I was always able to reach someone when I had a question or concern. Although this was a long process, they were always on top of the process and moving to the next step without me having to push things along. I appreciated that. I also really enjoyed getting to know Eric and Will as my attorneys. They were respectful, professional and I was a person to them, not a bottom line. I’d use them again in a heart beat.

I don’t know anyone who would choose to be in a car accident but unfortunately I have been in quite a few. This will be the first time I have ever left a review in regards to one of these unfortunate events, but I think it’s important to make informed decisions and I’m known to be honest and direct.
I first discovered Cavanaugh and Thickens after an accident in 2019. One of the things I noticed and appreciated most was how Mr. Joe Thickens explained everything to me during the process. I had many questions and he took the time to address everyone of them and not once did I feel rushed or

Robb Brown really came through and helped my wife with a dog attack. He helped mediate and navigate through everything we needed, and helped us get paid promptly. It was a small case but he treated it like it meant the world. Highly recommend Robb to anyone looking.

First let me say I love this firm. I never dealt with a firm that constantly care about your health and mental state as you go through the process.the staff is absolutely AMAZING. The receptionist makes sure you are comfortable and ask if you need anything. They are quick and efficient with announcing your arrival.
Nick assisted with my Works Comp case. I wasn’t just another person or case. I was a person in need and they made sure I felt comfortable the entire time while discussing your issues. He walked me hru the entire process, not once was I left in suspense. Nick and staff consistently

I was injured on the job and started to receive workers comp and treatment through my employer. I began to suffer with anxiety disorder due to the injury and to my dismay the worker’s compensation attorney for my employer would not acknowledge my condition and denied me treatment. My neighbor urged me to seek legal representation and, by chance, I chose this firm. My attorney, Nick Skorzewski, was outstanding. I was able to contact him directly whenever I needed to and he always took my feelings and concerns seriously. Nick fought extremely hard to settle my case and he didn’t receive any compensation

Cavanaugh & Thickens is a great company! Fair and honest - that's pretty great in my books!
All the staff are SUPER friendly and welcoming, they make me feel right at home (especially since visiting an injury attorney means that it isn't the best time in life). They provided valuable legal counsel and helped me and my family through a tough time (medically speaking).
If you are looking for attorney's committed to quality work and will give you the best service, call Cavanaugh & Thickens, they are the best! I highly recommend them.

We were involved in a car accident and the other party was 100% at fault. After months of trying to deal with the responsible party's insurance we decided to get an attorney involved. I am not from the area so I used thumbtack to find these guys. We worked with Joe and he was extremely professional, responsive, and fought hard for us to receive a fair settlement. If you are looking for some help, definitely call Joe!
