Theos Law Firm: Rigorous Representation When You Need It Most

At Theos Law Firm, we know that finding the right attorney to represent you is a choice not to be taken lightly.

What Should You Do After a Car Accident in South Carolina?

The moments following the crash are often a blur when you're involved in a car accident. However, per South Carolina law, those on the scene must adhere to legal responsibilities and obligations.

First, try to stop your car and ensure it is positioned safely near the scene of the crash. Then, call 911 to report the accident. While most folks go into full-blown panic mode, you need to stay calm so you can process the situation. If you notice that there are injured people, give them "reasonable assistance." Per South Carolina Code of Laws, that could include transporting hurt people to a hospital or calling an ambulance for them.

If you're in a car crash, you need to be prepared to exchange contact information with other drivers at the accident scene. If the person who caused the collision is present, make sure to get their name, phone number, address, and insurance info. If witnesses are present, get their contact info, too, in case our team needs to obtain their account later.

Next, try to piece together how the car crash happened. This is an appropriate time to take photos of the cars, wreckage, and debris. Ask yourself if you think a vehicle failed to follow the rules of the road, like speeding or failing to stop at a stop sign.

Regardless of how minor your injuries may appear and who may be to blame for the accident, get legal advice from Theos Law Firm first before giving any recorded statements or refusing medical care.

Goose Creek’s new art center, The Creek Collective, is nearing completion

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCBD) – Goose Creek’s new art center, The Creek Collective, is being constructed on Saint James Boulevard where a small white chapel once stood.

“We are nearing the end of construction for the Creek Collective. This is an art gallery at the former site of the wedding and prayer chapel that we’ve been working on for the past few years,” explained Goose Creek Special Projects Manager, Alexis Kiser.

City officials said they are very excited about the project. The building is designed to be a replica of the old wedding and prayer chapel that is replaced.

The cost of renovating for former chapel would have been more expensive than constructing a new building, and the new space would be about 140 square feet larger.

“The Creek Collective is a home for arts in Goose Creek. At our first show, we’re very proud to host the Goose Creek Artist Guild. We’ve worked with them for many years, and we’re very proud and honored to display their art as our very first show at this new location,” said Kiser. “It’s also going to be a base for people to come and try out some new art mediums for the first time. Everything from painting to crocheting to small clay works.”

This will be a place of art inside and out.

“There’s a beautiful patio space right to the right of the site, and we really want to focus on actively using that space with art. So, it’s just not in the gallery, it’s outside, too. Things like sculpture areas and butterfly gardens. There will be kind of seating areas for people to go and enjoy their lunch at the patio.”

City officials say they hope to open the Creek Collective as soon as the end of May.

Close to two years after Goose Creek City Council members agreed to rezone a piece of land near some densely packed existing homes, things look much different. In May 2023, the land was made available for residential housing.

At the time, residents in the area along Pandora Drive, which backs right up to the site, told The Berkeley Independent they tried to get the council to change the plan, but it never happened. Some considered moving.

Now, those living along the stretch, mostly in small one-story ranch-style homes, have watched as excavation crews cleared the 30-plus acres in just a few months. Their homes, once backed by a massive buffer of thick trees, are now next to open land.

“They destroyed the animal habitat,” said resident Pat Bowman. "The noise has gotten really bad.”

Bowman lives along Pandora Drive in a neighborhood — ironically, in the same neighborhood — where a home boasts of being the site of the first Goose Creek council meeting in 1961.

Beazer Homes is now on site. The proposal from Beazer shows the residential areas of the proposed Avalon Point Planned Development hold approximately 29.11 acres.

The development, as presented, has 142 residential lots, including 71 single-family residences and 71 townhome units. An additional commercial area totals approximately 3.5 acres.

Jake Buck just moved to the area. His home was purchased in July 2024, with no mention of the pending clear-cut just 50 yards from this door.

“When we first bought the house, what we loved was that these woods were right across the street, and we were kind of tucked away with the nature here,” he said, adding traffic and water pressure will be a problem.

The area sits near one of the busiest intersections in Berkeley County, where Red Bank Road, Highway 52 and Highway 176 intersect. The address for the site of the planned development is 117 Red Bank Road in Goose Creek.

The price of progress was costly for residents who enjoyed the swath of forest separating the Pandora Drive community from Red Bank Road. It is now all gone. No exact completion date has been determined for the construction.

Beazer Homes has a sign in front of the work giving those interested in buying in Avalon Point a phone number to get on a VIP list.

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCSC) - Goose Creek residents will have more opportunities to hear Mayor Greg Habib’s State of the City address in “Creek Conversations.”

Mayor Habib is switching up his traditional style of deliverance when it comes to the annual State of the City address since his election into office back in 2018.

Goose Creek residents will now have three chances to take part in the city’s Creek Conversations.

The first Creek Conversation takes place Thursday at Crowfield’s Planters Walk Clubhouse at 6 p.m. City spokesman Frank Johnson says the effort is meant to give residents space to share their thoughts and ideas directly with city officials.

“What this is a chance to do is to let everyone know what’s going on with each city department,” Johnson says. “We’ve got a lot of exciting projects that are both in the works and coming up and then really hear from residents. It’s a chance to ask questions and share their thoughts.”

Residents will hear updates from the mayor, police department and department heads on city projects and economics during these town hall style meetings.

“The new projects, I know, are something people are very interested in,” Johnson says. “We have a new amphitheater here that’s about to crank up its second full season. We have some exciting concerts coming in, so people are excited about that. They want to learn more about this new multipurpose [installment]; the assembly at Goose Creek will be built here on the municipal center campus.”

The Creek Conversations will also take place March 27 at Northwood Church Building A and April 3 at the Calvary Church of Nazarene.

Johnson says the city’s growth continues with an estimated population of over 50,000. The number of Portuguese speakers in the area is increasing as well, he says. The Latin Advisory Committee will participate at the April 3 meeting along with Spanish and Portuguese translators as a resource.
