If you or someone you love suffered a spinal cord injury due to a car or truck accident, accidental fall, medical accident, or another kind of accident based on negligence, you could have the legal capacity to request compensation from the at-fault party. Your potential amount of compensation can include income loss, medical treatments, rehabilitation, and pain and suffering.

By seeking personal injury insurance compensation, you can prove the negligence that entitles you to monetary recovery. When you are ready to seek financial recovery from the at-fault party, our Pickens spinal cord injury lawyer will help you navigate the personal injury process. Hammack Law Firm will hold the at-fault party financially responsible for the temporary and lifelong damage of your spinal cord injury. You can learn more today during a free consultation.

A Spinal Cord Injury Can Have Multiple Costs

According to Mayo Clinic research and guidelines, the physical impact of a spinal cord injury can lead to catastrophic injuries. The treatment plan that your health care team creates will be based on the severity of your injury. Your treatments can include medication, immobilization, and surgery for mild-to-moderate cases. Severely injured patients can have more extensive treatment plans that include:

• Breathing support
• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Extensive rehabilitation
• Psychological support

Our team can show you how to compel the person whose negligence led to your accident to cover your resulting expenses. We will help you create a comprehensive list of the expenses related to your mental and physical health and recovery. Accident victims who are left permanently incapacitated due to a spine injury will have many additional long-term expenses. Recovery costs will also increase greatly, especially if the patient requires lifelong treatments.

Damages You Could Recover From the At-Fault Party

Our team will collect various documents that help us prove your case’s value. We will request your medical and treatment records from every health care provider and facility you visited, request your employment records, and obtain a copy of your crash report, if applicable. We will compile these items for you so you can focus on getting better while we focus on seeking financial recovery for your:

• Known and anticipated medical costs
• Known and anticipated rehabilitation costs
• Known and anticipated loss of wages
• Mental and emotional anguish
• Physical pain and suffering
• Property damage or destruction

If a spinal cord injury led to the death of someone you love, we also make sure you recover the costs of making their final arrangements. You might also be entitled to additional wrongful death expenses for your loss of consortium, loss of enjoyment of life, loss of future earning ability, and other applicable losses. Our team will go over your range of recoverable damages with you to ensure all valid financial expenses and losses are accounted for.

South Carolina’s Statute of Limitations

Every civil lawsuit has a state-mandated filing deadline. In Pickens, S.C. Ann. § 15-3-530 defines the personal injury statute of limitations. It also defines the wrongful death statute of limitations. Each is generally three years, but how each is calculated varies as follows:

• The personal injury filing deadline starts on the date of the accident
• The wrongful death filing deadline starts on the date of the victim’s demise

The negotiation process is complicated, and because we are never afraid to take your case to court, we make sure we meet the filing deadline to preserve your right to seek compensation and resolve your legal matter. Our mission is to build a personal relationship with injured clients and with the surviving family members of fatally injured accident victims. We offer you our sympathy and compassion for your loss – and our commitment to make South Carolina a safer place for all.
