Injury Claim Questions? We Have Answers.

 After an accident, uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Below, we address the most critical questions South Carolina injury victims ask—so you can take action with confidence. Don’t see your question? Contact us within 24 hours.

Every case differs, but we evaluate:

  • Medical bills (current + future)

  • Lost wages/earning capacity

  • Pain/suffering (especially for surgeries or permanent injuries)
    *Recent example: $750K for a rear-end collision with spinal damage (Columbia, 2024).

3 years for most injury claims (car accidents, slips/falls)—but:

  • Exceptions: Government claims (2 years), wrongful death (3 years from date of death).
    Warning: Evidence disappears fast. Contact us immediately.

We:

  1. Demand a written denial explanation

  2. Gather new evidence (witnesses, expert testimony)

  3. File a bad-faith lawsuit if justified
    75% of denied claims we handle get overturned.

Never without consulting us first. Insurers record calls to:

  • Twist your words into “admissions”

  • Downplay injuries (“You seemed fine at the scene”)
    Let us handle all communications.

“Minor” injuries often escalate (whiplash → chronic pain). We:

  • Document injuries early (before symptoms “disappear” medically)

  • Prevent insurers from blaming pre-existing conditions
    Free advice: Always get a professional case review.

Yes, if you’re ≤50% at fault under SC law. We:

  • Reduce your fault % (e.g., prove the other driver sped)

  • Maximize recovery (Example: Recovered $500K for client deemed 30% at fault)
