What to Do If You Suspect Medical Malpractice
South Carolina Accident laws
Most South Carolina employers with four or more employees are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance.
Unlike many personal injury claims, injured workers generally do not have to prove their employer was negligent to receive benefits. Instead, the injury must arise out of and occur during the course of employment.
Employees generally must:
- Report an injury within 90 days
- File a workers’ compensation claim within two years
Because every claim is unique and exceptions may apply, speaking with an attorney as soon as possible can help protect your rights.
