Determining Liability
Wrongful death in South Carolina is one caused by the neglect or wrongful actions of another person. It refers to the responsibility one has to avoid causing harm to others. For example, a driver has a duty of care to other drivers on the road.
Once a “duty of care” has been determined, a “breach of duty” must be established. If that breach results in death, you may be eligible for compensation for damages such as medical bills, loss of income, funeral expenses, and pain and suffering.
In South Carolina, spouses, children, or parents of the deceased may file a wrongful death claim. The legal process for these cases can be complex and emotionally taxing, and an experienced wrongful death attorney can help. During your free consultation, Thomas will review your case and advise you on how to proceed.
Collecting Evidence for Your Case
When pursuing a wrongful death claim in South Carolina, Thomas will work to build a strong case backed by substantial evidence. That evidence may include proof of death, negligence, financial loss, dependency, and pain and suffering. Spartan Law is a no-fee, no-win legal practice, so you only pay when your case is settled or wins in court.
As a wrongful death attorney, Thomas’ commitment to zealous advocacy ensures that no stone is left unturned when collecting the evidence your case needs. The evidence required varies based on circumstances, so request your no-cost consultation to learn more.
Negotiating Your Case
In many wrongful death cases, attorneys are necessary. Thomas is a member of the South Carolina Lawyers Association and the National Association of Premises Liability Lawyers, and his experience can cut through red tape so you can receive the best financial award for your wrongful death case.
