How Do I Know If I Have a Personal Injury Case in South Carolina?

How to Support Your Case for Compensation in Moncks Corner, South Carolina

You can take several steps to help solidify your case for compensation. We advise the following:

Get a Police Report

If you sustained injuries in a motor vehicle accident in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, you will want to obtain a copy of the accident report. You can do so through the Moncks Corner Police Department.

Keep Track of Other Evidence Related to Your Case

If you have to pay out of pocket for expenses, such as transportation costs or medical devices, keep track of these costs. We can factor them into your settlement or award amount. 

If you have contact information for witnesses to your case, you can pass these on to your legal team. Witness statements may provide useful evidence in your case.

Get Necessary Medical Care

Get medical care after your initial injury and continue to follow your doctors’ orders. If you are advised to take medications, go to physical therapy, or undergo other treatments, do so. If you fail to get the care you need, the insurer could try to claim that you made your injuries worse.

Leave the Communication With Insurers to Your Legal Team

You may get a call from an insurance company asking you for a recorded statement or offering you an early settlement. You can let your lawyer handle these conversations. 

Sometimes, insurance companies will use any recorded statement you make to lower your settlement amount. An initial settlement offer may not reflect the true range of your losses and future medical costs. We can negotiate for fair compensation.

Act Promptly to Begin Your Case

Whether you were injured at work or in some other negligent accident, begin your case as soon as you can. This allows us to act quickly to gather time-sensitive evidence. If you wait too long to begin your case, we may lose crucial evidence to prove liability and your damages. 

Our Moncks Corner personal injury attorneys can tell you more about how we gather evidence when you call for a free consultation.
