Even if you contributed to the accident, you may still be able to get a settlement, due to South Carolina’s modified comparative fault rule. As long as you are not more than 50% at fault, you can recover damages, but damages are reduced by the percentage you are found to be at fault. Our Whalen Montalvo attorneys understand how much you have to deal with after a serious spinal cord injury, and we will be there to support you, answer all your questions, and keep you informed throughout the entire legal process.
