Columbia, SC Mesothelioma Law Firm
Columbia is the largest city in South Carolina as well as the state capital and the county seat of Richland County. The city is situated on the Congaree River, at the confluence of the Saluda and Broad rivers. Originally inhabited by the Congarees, the area was chosen by the South Carolina General Assembly to become the state capital in 1786, due in large part to its central location within the state. The 1801 opening of South Carolina College, today known as the University of South Carolina, helped fuel early growth. With the arrival of railroad in the early 1800s, Columbia developed as a hub for cotton trade. The end of the Civil War brought fires that would destroy much of the city; however, by the end of the century Columbia would reemerge as an agricultural center.
In the early 20th century, Columbia grew as a regional hub for textile manufacturing, trade and banking. Fort Jackson, originally built as Camp Jackson in 1917, served as a principal U.S. Army training center during World War II, further boosting the city’s expansion. In the post-war decades, Columbia’s economy continued to diversify and includes thriving manufacturing, wholesale distribution, and research and development sectors. Fort Jackson still has a strong impact on the area’s economy as one of the Army’s major basic training installations.
The history of manufacturing, agriculture, military and railroads in Columbia includes many job sites where asbestos products were used. Columbia residents who worked around these products may have an increased risk of developing mesothelioma cancer from asbestos exposure.
