Seeking Compensation for
Accident-Related Damages in South Carolina
If you are in an accident, no matter what kind, you might sustain an injury. However, many people are not immediately aware that they have suffered harm and do not feel pain or other effects until hours or days later. It can be difficult to know what to do after being involved in an accident where you thought you weren’t harmed, only to realize later that you received injuries. Returning to normal life after such an event can be challenging.
You may also have expensive bills associated with being harmed, which could include the costs of emergency medical services, emergency room visits, the expense of a follow-up doctor or specialist, or physical therapy and prescription medications. If these costs come out of your pocket, receiving compensation can be one of the only ways you will be able to regain financial security.
If these costs come out of your pocket, receiving compensation can be one of the only ways you will be able to regain financial security.

How Our Team Can Help
A professional personal injury lawyer can make sure that the information on any accident-related paperwork is accurate, meaning that rejection of advantages is less likely. Therefore, it is important to seek the services of an experienced Charleston accident attorney as soon as possible – preferably before you begin dealing with an insurance provider or adjusters. Your lawyer can protect your rights to seek compensation and preserve your best interests.
Retaining legal representation immediately is crucial because of the filing deadlines set by state law and insurance companies. Additionally, an injury received in an accident, no matter the severity, is serious. These cases are time-sensitive, and the longer you wait to file a claim, the harder it will be for you to provide all, the information that is necessary to prove your case.
Personal injury matters are complex. Unfortunately, the average person does not have the knowledge or experience to know how much time is available for filing a claim for injuries in an accident. If the statute of limitations ends, it will be nearly impossible to receive compensation for the losses and damages you suffered.
Call us at (843) 790-0083 or contact us online to speak with one of our injury attorneys.
Fighting For the Best Result
A competent and experienced Charleston personal injury lawyer will know these deadlines and the statute of limitations associated with your case. They will be able to prepare the lawsuit and claim to tell your side of the story. Getting ready for a lawsuit is hard work, and it is better accomplished with experienced help. Witnesses and statements must be collected to bolster your case. Also, documentation of the accident must be provided with a description and/or photographic evidence of the site's conditions and environment.
If you have suffered damages or injuries in an accident in Charleston or Summerville, South Carolina, document as much as possible and record anything you think might be important. After retaining an experienced personal injury accident lawyer, turn this evidence over and allow them to build a compelling strategy for your claim.
*The attorney fee will be a percentage of the total recovery, and it will be computed before any expenses are deducted from the recovery. Unless otherwise noted in the fee agreement, the client will not be responsible for costs if no recovery is made.
