How much time do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit?

You have three years to file a personal injury lawsuit in South Carolina. A claim against the government must be started in two years. You don’t have to complete the case in that timeframe. You can meet the deadline by just one day and still receive your compensation. However, it’s always best to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible.

What is my personal injury case worth?

A personal injury case may seek compensation for economic loss, like medical bills, and personal loss, like pain and suffering. There are many types of losses that a person may have with a personal injury. These losses can be claimed as compensation. What your personal injury case is worth depends on several factors – the losses you have, how fault is assigned, and sources of compensation.

What is the difference between a felony and a misdemeanor?

Felonies are usually more serious offenses than misdemeanors. But each offense has its own maximum incarceration and other penalties.

Generally, felonies carry longer potential jail time than misdemeanors. In addition, felonies may result in the loss of rights, such as firearm possession and voting rights, that are not lost with misdemeanors.

How does the criminal defense process work in SC?

The criminal defense process begins when a person is charged with a crime. The person may be arrested, informed of the charges, or summoned to court. At the first hearing, the person pleads guilty or not guilty. The court may impose conditions on the bond.

More serious offenses begin with a preliminary hearing. There may also be a pre-trial conference and motion hearings, and the parties may discuss a plea bargain.
