Personal Injury Compensation
If you’re out of work because of your injuries, you can also get money for that. You likely have many types of damages that we can help you get compensation for.
Types of Damages in a Personal Injury Case
There are multiple types of damages you may be able to recover in a personal injury case, including economic, non-economic, and punitive.
- Economic Damages – These are directly related to out of pocket monetary losses. They include things like past and future medical bills, lost wages, and property damage.
- Non-Economic Damages – These are harder to place a value on because they are not directly related to lost money. They include things like pain and suffering and emotional anguish.
- Punitive Damages – These are not compensatory in nature. Instead, they are meant to punish the at-fault party for particularly reckless or wrongful actions. The purpose is to prevent future actions like those that hurt you.
How Much Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?
While money cannot make everything better, it can help you pay the medical bills that are piling up. There is no way to tell you exactly how much your case is worth before evaluating your damages. The personal injury compensation or damage calculators online are not accurate. Only an experienced Greenville personal injury attorney can tell you how much your case may potentially be worth.
How Can I Get The Most Compensation Possible?
There are actions you can take that will ensure you get the most compensation possible. The most important step is to work with a personal injury attorney who knows how to gather evidence to support your damages. However, you can take the following steps to boost your chances of getting more money:
- Get medical treatment right away.
- Follow all medical recommendations.
- Follow up with medical treatment and get ongoing care.
- Keep track of all your out-of-pocket expenses.
- Keep a folder with medical records and bills.
- Obtain a police report about your accident.
- Keep a post-accident pain and damages journal.
- Do not speak to the insurance companies (allow your lawyer to do so instead).
- Do not post on social media or talk to others about your claim.
- Keep records about lost wages, benefits, and time off work.
- Get statements from friends and family about how the accident affected your life.
- Make a day in the life video about how the accident affected your life.
- Work closely with a personal injury attorney after the accident.
It’s important to take steps that will preserve your claim and further your own interests after a personal injury incident.

Personal Injury FAQ
We know you likely have a lot of questions after a personal injury accident. The Boggs Law Firm has answers. If you don’t see an answer to your question here, feel free to give us a call.
How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
There is a deadline, or “statute of limitations,” on how long you have to file a personal injury lawsuit in South Carolina. You must file a claim within three years after an accident or when the injury was discovered (in medical malpractice claims). However, there are some exceptions. Children generally have until age 19 if that is longer than three years after an accident. It’s important to seek legal advice as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss a deadline.
Will I Have To Go To Court?
In most cases, you will not actually have to enter a courtroom. Very few personal injury cases go to trial. Most cases end in a personal injury settlement. If there are hearings, depositions, and other meetings before trial, your attorney can generally attend those on your behalf. If your case does go to trial, your lawyer will make sure you are prepared.
How Do I Know If I Have a Case?
If someone else caused your injuries, you should consider a personal injury claim against them. Keep in mind that in most cases, you will be filing an insurance claim. However, you may have to file a personal injury lawsuit. You don’t have to make these decisions alone. A personal injury lawyer can help you decide if you have a case.
