In Florence, as in the rest of South Carolina, you typically have three years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, some claims—especially those involving government agencies or medical providers at institutions like McLeod Regional Medical Center—may have shorter deadlines. Contacting a Florence-based attorney early ensures critical evidence is preserved and that your claim is filed on time with the Florence County Courthouse if needed.
South Carolina’s modified comparative negligence law applies to all injury claims in Florence. This means you can still recover compensation if you’re less than 51% at fault. Your total compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you’re found 30% at fault in a car accident on Palmetto Street, your damages will be reduced by 30%. Our Florence attorneys work to reduce your share of liability and fight for the compensation you deserve.
Our Florence clients pay nothing upfront. At Berly Rouse, we operate on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. Whether your case involves an accident on I-95 or a malpractice issue at a local clinic, you’ll never owe attorney fees unless we win.

We evaluate both short-term and long-term impacts to ensure your claim reflects the full scope of your losses.
While many claims settle out of court, some require litigation—especially if the insurance company offers a lowball settlement. If needed, we’re prepared to file your case at the Florence County Judicial Center and argue in front of a local judge. We treat every case as if it will go to trial, building strong arguments from day one to increase your negotiating power.
Timelines vary based on the complexity of your case, but most Florence claims settle within a few months to a year. If litigation is necessary, it may take longer. We keep you updated throughout the process and strive to resolve your case as efficiently as possible without compromising on results.
