What Is the Deadline to File a Crash Claim After an I-85 Crash in Greer, SC?

In South Carolina, a person generally has three years to file a personal injury lawsuit after a crash on I-85. S.C. Code § 15-3-530(5) establishes a three-year limitations period for actions involving an injury to a person or another protected legal interest.

The statute provides that the period runs after the person knew or, through reasonable diligence, should have known they had a cause of action.

For someone injured on I-85 in Greer, this deadline can apply to claims involving medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other losses related to the injuries. Evidence such as medical records, photographs, witness statements, vehicle damage, and available roadway or vehicle video may help document what happened.

South Carolina also follows comparative negligence principles in personal injury cases. If an injured person's own actions contributed to the harm, their share of fault can affect the amount of compensation available.

The three-year period is a general rule, and different requirements may apply to certain claims. Wrongful death actions, claims involving government entities, or other circumstances can involve separate rules. Identifying the applicable deadline early can help preserve a potential claim.

A car accident lawyer can review the available evidence, medical information, financial records, and insurance documents and explain what legal options may apply. An attorney may also identify additional records that could be useful to a potential claim.
