Many cases are based on accidents, where someone created a dangerous situation by not being careful enough. When you ask for a consultation with a lawyer at Briggs Law Group, we explore all possibilities for you to have a case.
It depends. For general negligence claims, the time limit to file a lawsuit in South Carolina is three years. But it might be shorter or longer. You should never wait to contact a lawyer. We want to work quickly to preserve evidence and start pursuing your compensation.
Your lawyer determines the value of your case by evaluating the types of losses you have. Plus, they consider other factors like how clear fault is and how you can collect compensation. Generally, the worse your injuries and losses, the more your case may be worth. However, there are other factors that may impact your case value.
After an injury, get medical care as quickly as possible. Report the accident to the police, your employer, or the property owner, as applicable. Have someone take photos and collect witness contact information. Consult with a lawyer as soon as possible.
