Your Right To Recovery After Suffering Injury
If you are injured due to another party’s fault, you have a right to compensation. Once we prove that your injuries would not have occurred but for the other party’s fault, you can seek economic damages, non-economic damages, and, in certain cases, punitive damages.
Economic Damages
Money to pay for or reimburse you for expenses such as medical bills, property damage, lost wages, medicine costs, rehabilitation and physical therapy, and any equipment or other related expenses.
Non-Economic Damages
Money for pain and suffering, inconvenience, disfigurement, physical impairment, loss of companionship, mental anguish, humiliation, and injury to reputation.
Punitive Damages
Money awarded to punish the at-fault party for especially egregious misconduct. In many cases, there is more than one party that was at fault for the incident that caused the injury – including yourself. South Carolina courts follow a legal doctrine called modified comparative negligence, which determines how to award damages. Even if you were partially at fault for causing your own injury, you can still recover compensation as long as you were not more than 50% responsible.
