South Carolina law (S.C. Code Ann. § 56-5-1210-1260) requires that drivers involved in an accident stop and help any injured people receive medical care. Unfortunately, rollover car accidents carry a high risk of serious injuries.
The force and motion of a rollover accident is especially likely to cause head and neck injuries, such as:
Internal bleeding from blunt force is also a common result of rollover crashes, and many people involved in these kinds of accidents will require immediate medical attention. Ambulance transportation to a hospital is often necessary for the fastest, most thorough response that addresses serious injuries that may not be immediately visible.
In addition to the immediate injuries from a rollover car crash in Spartanburg, there may be lasting impacts. Broken bones in arms or legs may require surgery to fix and physical therapy to recover range of motion. Brain injuries can have long-term impacts on concentration and the ability to physically and mentally function to just live a normal life and hold a job.
Following a rollover car wreck in Spartanburg, the most important and immediate concern is that any injured individuals get the medical care they need. Once that is taken care of, the accident may need to be cleared from the road in order to avoid slowing down or stopping traffic on the roadways, especially if it took place on a busy road like Asheville Highway, Interstate 585/85/26, or Boiling Springs Road.
As a driver involved in a rollover car accident, you will want to speak to your insurance company and share information about the other driver’s insurance as well. At this point, you may receive a settlement offer if the other driver is found at fault for the accident. Think twice before accepting it. Get advice from an experienced car accident attorney first.
Consider whether a settlement offer will cover your full losses. If you have ongoing injuries, you may not have a full picture of exactly how much the crash will cost until later. You may also want to consider less obvious costs, such as lost wages from time off work or transportation costs while you were without the use of your vehicle.
Once you accept a settlement, you cannot receive more money, so it is very important to consider the full costs before agreeing to any offers.
Rollover car accidents in Spartanburg can result in serious injuries and costly property damages. Before you make any decisions about settlements, you should speak with an attorney. A lawyer can help assess your losses to get a full sense of the costs. An attorney can also advise you on whether a settlement is fair and help negotiate with the insurance company if it’s not. Finally, a lawyer can help you take the case to court and represent you if you cannot reach a settlement agreement.
