Who Is Liable? Understanding Fault in South Carolina
Under South Carolina law, the driver whose negligence (speeding, distracted driving, impairment) caused the crash is generally liable. SC follows the modified comparative negligence rule (51% rule) if you’re 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover. If you’re partially at fault, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault.
For example: if you’re 30% at fault and your total damages are $100,000, you may recover $70,000.
What to Do Immediately After a Car Accident in North Augusta
- Check for injuries and call 911 if needed—medical care must be prioritised.
- Report the crash to the Aiken County Sheriff’s Office Traffic Division or North Augusta Police Department if inside city limits.
- Seek medical treatment—documenting injuries early is crucial for your claim.
- Preserve evidence: take photos of the scene, vehicles, skid marks, traffic controls, bodycam/camera footage.
- Do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company before speaking with our lawyers.
- Contact Ted Law Firm as soon as possible time is essential to preserve evidence.
- Understand the statute of limitations: in South Carolina you generally have 3 years from the accident date to file a personal injury claim unless another statute applies.
What Compensation Can You Recover After a Car Crash?
Victims in North Augusta may be eligible for:
- Emergency care, hospitalization, and rehabilitation costs.

Why Acting Quickly Matters
Evidence disappears fast: vehicles get repaired or moved, cameras get overwritten, memories fade. In South Carolina, the three-year statute of limitations means waiting can jeopardise your rights. By acting promptly, we preserve your claim and increase your odds of full recovery.
