Objective

Fix the live Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers post at https://aguiarinjurylawyers.com/common-mistakes-to-avoid-in-car-accident-cases-2/ using sa-copywrite-design and the SA Element Registry, and determine whether the -2 slug should redirect to a clean URL.

Evidence Source

• Live WordPress REST readback found only post ID 7926 at the -2 slug. No page or post existed at the clean slug before the fix.
• SA Element Registry was used for the blog split hero and Sidebar Option B pattern.
• Live public readback, RankMath head readback, old-slug redirect check, Cloudflare purge, IndexNow, and Playwright screenshots were run after deployment.

What Changed

• Rebuilt the post body from the live source and deployed through WordPress REST while preserving published status.
• Changed slug from common-mistakes-to-avoid-in-car-accident-cases-2 to common-mistakes-to-avoid-in-car-accident-cases.
• Verified old -2 URL now returns 301 to the clean URL.
• Removed Gravity Forms markup, duplicate FAQ blocks, stale schema, duplicate visible/form sections, and wrong-topic/banned-topic remnants.
• Removed statute of limitations, comparative fault, and case-worth framing from the body and schema.
• Added approved custom intake form posting to /wp-json/sal/v1/contact-intake.
• Added split-card blog hero, canonical closed TOC, Sidebar Option B, review break, FAQ, and final proof block.
• Updated featured image alt text and RankMath title, description, focus keyword, and robots metadata.

Current State

• Live URL: https://aguiarinjurylawyers.com/common-mistakes-to-avoid-in-car-accident-cases/
• Old URL: https://aguiarinjurylawyers.com/common-mistakes-to-avoid-in-car-accident-cases-2/ redirects with HTTP 301 to the clean URL.
• Post ID: 7926.
• Status: publish.
