Time Limitations for Filing

South Carolina law places strict deadlines on how long you have to pursue compensation. Missing these deadlines could prevent you from recovering damages for your medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering & other losses.

• Personal injury claims: In many cases, you have three years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit.
• Claims involving government entities: If your injury involved a government agency or government vehicle, different deadlines & legal requirements may apply.
• Accidents involving children: South Carolina law may provide additional time for injured minors to pursue certain personal injury claims, although some related claims may still be subject to earlier deadlines.
