Under South Carolina law, you generally have three years from the date of the incident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, if the injury occurred on government property or involved a municipality like the Town of Hilton Head Island, the deadline may be shorter. Speak to a local attorney right away to protect your rights.
South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages as long as you’re less than 51% at fault. For instance, if you were injured in a bicycle crash on Pope Avenue and are found 20% at fault, your final compensation would be reduced by that percentage. We’ll fight to minimize your share of liability and maximize your payout.
No. Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win. Whether your injury occurred during vacation or on the job, you’ll owe no legal fees upfront.
Depending on the case, you may be entitled to recover:
We calculate both short- and long-term losses to ensure your recovery reflects the true cost of your injury.
Not necessarily. Many claims settle out of court. However, if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair amount, we’re prepared to litigate your case in Beaufort County Court. Our attorneys prepare every case as if it’s going to trial to ensure your leverage during negotiations.
Simple cases can settle in a few months, while more complex ones may take a year or longer. Factors that influence timing include medical treatment duration, whether liability is disputed, and how willing the insurer is to settle. We’ll walk you through the timeline and keep you informed from start to finish.
Yes. Many claims stem from vacation rentals, resorts, restaurants, and shopping centers. If unsafe conditions like broken railings, poor lighting, or wet floors led to your injury, our team can pursue a premises liability claim on your behalf.
