Understanding South Carolina Personal Injury Law

In South Carolina, personal injury claims are based on negligence. If a person, business, or other entity fails to act with reasonable care and causes someone else harm, they may be held liable. Negligence cases require proof of the following elements:

Duty of Care: The defendant owed the victim a legal obligation to act reasonably.
Breach of Duty: That duty was violated through action or inaction.
Causation: The breach directly caused the victim’s injuries.
Damages: The victim suffered actual harm, such as medical expenses, lost wages, or emotional trauma.

Proving these elements requires evidence, such as witness statements, medical records, photographs, and expert opinions. An experienced attorney can help build a strong case on your behalf.

Compensation Available in Myrtle Beach Injury Claims

If you were injured due to someone else’s carelessness, you may be able to recover both economic and noneconomic damages:

Economic Damages:

Medical bills (past and future)
Lost wages and lost earning capacity
Property damage
Out-of-pocket expenses

Noneconomic Damages:

Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Disfigurement or disability

Punitive Damages may also be awarded in cases involving gross negligence, such as drunk driving or reckless conduct.

What Happens If You Were Partially at Fault?

South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means you can still recover compensation if you were less than 51% at fault. However, your total recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

For example, if you were found to be 30% at fault for a crash, and your total damages were $100,000, you would still be eligible to recover $70,000.
