According to reports from the federal Department of Transportation, motor vehicle accidents killed 43,443 Americans in 2005 and injured 2.7 million more. Often, these wrecks take place in a split second, irrevocably changing the lives of innocent drivers, passengers and pedestrians. South Carolina law gives you the right to hold that person legally responsible for the injuries he or she caused. You can ask a court for compensation for your medical bills, repair bills, missed work and any other financial costs that the accident caused; as well as for pain and suffering, permanent disability and other non-economic losses. In some cases, you may also be able to collect further money to punish a person or corporation for a particularly serious harm. Even if you think you may bear some fault for your injuries, the chances are good that you can still collect damages. In some South Carolina car accidents, the victims’ recovery is complicated by dealing with a bureaucratic or hostile insurance company. Even loyal customers who have paid for their insurance on time for years may find themselves arguing with insurance adjustors about whose fault an accident was; the value of damages; what kind of coverage you have; and other issues that can significantly change how much compensation you are entitled to. If an insurance company refuses to pay a valid claim, it’s called insurance bad faith and it is illegal. An experienced South Carolina auto accident attorney can help you hold the insurance company to its end of the bargain and collect the compensation you are entitled to. If you’ve been in an accident, it’s important to make sure that you understand your legal rights. South Carolina law on car wrecks is complex, and the statute of limitations for filing a claim can be short.
