COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - Ben Connell from Connell Law Firm joined Abigail in studio to talk about what injury victims should know following a serious accident and how proper legal guidance can make all the difference. Connell says one of the biggest misunderstandings people have is trying to settle too quickly. Many don’t realize the full extent of their injuries or how long recovery could take. He encourages those involved in serious accidents to focus first on medical treatment and give their bodies time to reveal the true impact before making any decisions. Depending on the severity of the case, some claims can be resolved within months, while others involving major surgeries or wrongful death can take years. Connell explains that justice, to him, means holding negligent drivers accountable and making the community safer for everyone. His firm often represents victims of catastrophic injuries, where lost wages, medical costs, and lifestyle changes can create long-term hardships. While no legal outcome can erase what happened, Connell’s goal is to help clients regain stability and peace of mind. Connell and his team are available day or night to assist those facing serious injuries or wrongful death cases, helping them take the right steps toward recovery and justice Feel more informed, prepared, and connected with WIS.
