How Will Our Brain Injury Lawyer Hold the Other Party Accountable?
There are two ways you can pursue compensation. One is to file an insurance claim with the other party’s insurance company. This may be a good option because the insurer may be willing to compensate you fairly. The other option is to file a lawsuit against the other party itself. This option would hold the other party directly accountable for their actions.
Our Lawyer Will Keep Your Options Open
According to S.C. Ann § 15-3-530, the filing deadline for a personal injury lawsuit or a wrongful death suit is generally within three years of an accident or loss of life. To preserve the option of suing the other party, our lawyer will prepare your case quickly in order to meet the filing deadline.
Our Lawyer Will Prove Accountability
To prove the other party is, in fact, accountable for your damages, our lawyer will seek out and show the insurer or judge evidence of their liability, such as onsite camera footage, vehicle black box data, and more. If this evidence indicates another party is responsible, like an employer, our lawyer will hold them accountable. Our lawyer may even be able to hold multiple parties responsible for your damages.
Our lawyer will have to show each of the elements of negligence in your case against the other party. These elements are:
- Duty of care
- Breach of duty
- Causation
- Compensable damages
