We Fight for the Damages You May Be Entitled to Recover

If you were injured in a motorcycle accident caused by a negligent at-fault driver, S.C. Ann. §15-32-210 entitles you to recover the costs of your:

• Medical expenses
• Loss of income
• Home care assistance
• Property restoration
• Pain and suffering
• Physical impairment
• Mental distress

After reviewing your case, we might suggest other damages to pursue that are not listed here.

Our Team Collects Evidence to Support Your Claim

Our team may also ask you for additional documents that prove the worth of your financial damages. These documents might include:

• Medical records and bills
• Employment and salary records
• Vehicle repair bills or replacement values
• Documents that confirm your prognosis and the anticipated care your injuries might require

If the Other Driver Is Uninsured or Underinsured

If the at-fault driver was uninsured or underinsured, you may still have options to pursue compensation for your damages.

An underinsured motorist has an insurance policy that does not provide enough coverage to compensate you for your injuries and their expenses. An uninsured motorist does not have insurance at all. So, what can you do in either of these scenarios?

In South Carolina, uninsured motorist (UM) is mandatory and included in your auto insurance coverage at the minimum limit of $25,000. Underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage is an optional policy that you can purchase. UIM covers the victim’s losses when the at-fault driver’s minimum coverage is insufficient.

Our team may be able to help you leverage UM or UIM benefits to cover the costs of the accident.

Do Not Risk Filing Your Lawsuit Past the Statutory Deadline

Filing a lawsuit about a motorcycle accident is a time-sensitive mission.

According to S.C. Ann. §15-3-530, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to file your personal injury lawsuit. Failing to file your lawsuit on time might put it at risk of immediate dismissal.

If you would like to file a personal injury lawsuit and seek payment from the at-fault driver or liable party, our team is ready to fight by your side. Get help today from a Pickens motorcycle accident lawyer at Hammack Law Firm.

Your Motorcycle Accident Report Might Contain Important
Information for Your Case

According to S.C. Ann. §56-5-1270, you are required to call the police and file an accident report if:

• Anyone in either vehicle was injured
• Anyone in either vehicle was fatally injured
• Either vehicle sustained more than $1,000 in damages

Your South Carolina motorcycle accident report may help our team and the at-fault driver’s representative understand the cause and sequence of the collision. It might also provide additional insight on:

• Emergency treatment you required at the scene
• Points of impact and damage on both vehicles
• Factors and behaviors that contributed to the crash
• Each driver’s actions prior to the collision

You can provide our team with a copy of your motorcycle accident report as soon as it is processed and becomes available. It may also tell us how to contact the at-fault driver and their insurer when we start pursuing compensation.
