Personal Injury Liability Laws South Carolina

Determining liability after an accidental injury is not always as straightforward as it seems. You — or eyewitnesses of your accident — may believe it is obvious that another motorist, a shopkeeper or another party caused your accidental injury through some negligent actions. However, keep in mind that South Carolina is a comparative negligence state. If a judge or jury determines that you were partially at fault, you may have trouble collecting compensation through a lawsuit against another driver.

Specifically, if you are judged to be 51 percent or more at fault, you will not be able to recover compensation from the other driver. Insurance claims adjusters are well-aware of this. An insurer will, therefore, naturally try to claim that you were more than half to blame. For example, you may have been in the right of way — but speeding. So where does fault lie in that case?

An Experienced Personal Injury Lawyer Can Build A Strong Case For You

A skilled Greenville, South Carolina personal injury attorney can defend you against unfounded allegations that you were more than half responsible for your car, truck or slip-and-fall accident. At Ryan Montgomery, Attorney at Law, LLC, we prepare every case as if for trial — operating under the assumption that you may have to put up a fight. The difference between 49 percent fault and 51 percent fault can mean a difference of many thousands of dollars.

Juries are specifically instructed to apportion fault without any awareness of the consequences in dollars. It is paramount that we present the right kind of evidence to support of our clients’ right to be compensated for injuries. We do not take police accident reports at face value. Accident reconstruction can help provide compelling evidence in one direction or another.
