How Does a Personal Injury Claim Work? The Steps to Take After Your Injury

1. Report the Accident & Seek Medical Treatment

Right after the accident, the first priority should be your health and safety. Report the accident and visit a hospital for medical treatment. Traumatic brain injury, whiplash, or other internal injury may not be immediately apparent, and you could be doing more damage by delaying treatment.

A hospital visit is also an important step to take before starting the personal injury claim process, as doctors will document your injury and the treatment you’ll need.

2. Contact Spartan Law

It’s helpful to talk with a personal injury lawyer early in the process. Attorney Thomas Conits has helped many people through the process, from their injury until the day they receive fair compensation.

Be ready to talk about the accident. What happened? Who is at fault? Have you spoken to investigators? Is insurance involved? Do you know the names of any witnesses? Do you have any photos?

Then, Thomas will answer all your questions about how personal injury claims work and guide you through every step of the personal injury claim process in South Carolina.

3. Investigate and Document

Thomas will gather evidence of your accident, such as photos from the scene, witness statements, camera footage, and additional records.

If it doesn’t postpone your care and you’re able to do so, it could be helpful to take photos of the accident, your injury, the damaged vehicle or property, and the surrounding area immediately after the accident. If you’re not able to, a friend or family member with you can help here.

4. Start Your Claim and Advocacy

When you’re ready, Thomas will file the case on your behalf. He’ll advocate for you with the court, negotiate with the responsible party and their counsel, and take all the work off your plate so you can focus on your recovery.

The personal injury claim process in South Carolina allows for percentages of liability. You may still have a claim even if you believe you are partially at fault.

5. Settlements or Judgement

Typically, insurance companies assess the claim and make a settlement offer. Depending on the offer and your case, we may recommend that you take the settlement, negotiate for a better offer, or pursue a judgment in court.

The personal injury claim process in South Carolina, and across the country can take years. But here at Spartan Law, we will do our best to secure the compensation you need for your injury and expenses without delay.
