Critical Deadlines & Rules for South Carolina Car Accidents
Understanding South Carolina's personal injury laws can make or break your case. Here's what every accident victim needs to know.
Statute of Limitations
In South Carolina, you have 3 years from the date of your car accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Miss this deadline and you lose your right to compensation — permanently.
S.C. Code § 15-3-530
Comparative Fault Rule
South Carolina follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover damages as long as you are less than 51% responsible for the accident. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.

5 Things You Must Do After a South Carolina Car Accident
The steps you take immediately after a car accident in South Carolina can make or break your case. Follow this checklist to protect your rights.
-
1
Call 911 & Report the Accident
South Carolina law requires reporting accidents with injuries or significant property damage. A police report is critical evidence for your claim.
-
2
Document Everything at the Scene
Photograph vehicle damage, road conditions, traffic signs, and any visible injuries. Get names and contact info from all witnesses.
-
3
Seek Medical Attention Immediately
Even if you feel fine, some injuries take days to appear. Delayed treatment can hurt your claim — insurance companies will argue you weren't really hurt.
-
4
Don't Talk to the Other Driver's Insurance
Anything you say can be used to reduce your settlement. Politely decline and let your attorney handle all communication.

South Carolina has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims from the date of the accident (S.C. Code § 15-3-530). However, waiting can hurt your case — evidence disappears, witnesses forget details, and the insurance company may use delay against you. Contact an attorney as soon as possible.
Under South Carolina's modified comparative fault rule, you can still recover compensation as long as you were less than 51% at fault. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% at fault and damages total $100,000, you could recover $80,000. Insurance companies often try to inflate your fault percentage — our attorneys fight back.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills (past and future), lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, property damage, and in some cases, punitive damages. The value depends on the severity of your injuries and the circumstances of the accident.
South Carolina requires drivers to carry minimum liability coverage, but not all drivers comply. You may still be able to recover compensation through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. Our attorneys will investigate every avenue to ensure you get the compensation you deserve.
No. Insurance adjusters are trained to get you to say things that can reduce your claim. Before giving any recorded statement, talk to a Roden Law attorney first. We'll handle all communication with the insurance companies so you don't accidentally hurt your case.
