Key Aspects of Car Accident Liability

Determining liability after a car accident is a critical first step toward recovering damages. South Carolina’s comparative negligence laws allow accident victims to seek compensation even if they are partially at fault, though the award may be adjusted based on their share of responsibility.

The process of establishing liability includes:

1. Gathering Evidence: Collecting photos, medical records, and witness statements to substantiate your claim.
2. Proving Negligence: Demonstrating that the other party’s actions caused the accident and resulting damages.
3. Understanding Comparative Negligence: Recognizing how shared fault can impact compensation eligibility.

Typically, car accidents leave victims facing physical, emotional, and financial challenges. Establishing liability and seeking compensation are essential steps in alleviating these burdens. Car accident victims may be entitled to recover various damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Steps to Pursuing Compensation

The path to fair compensation requires diligence and expertise. Wilkerson, Jones & Wilkerson guide clients through each step, including:

1. Filing Insurance Claims: Ensuring timely reporting to insurance companies.
2. Evidence Collection: Documenting every aspect of the incident, including medical records and accident reports.
3. Legal Guidance: Offering personalized strategies for negotiation or litigation.
4. Litigation, When Necessary: Pursuing claims in court to secure maximum compensation.
