Act Quickly: Time Limits for Filing a Claim
Do not hesitate. Trust your instinct and contact the attorneys at Elliott & Phelan, LLC if you believe that you or a loved one has been a victim of medical malpractice. Under South Carolina law, there are strict time restraints in which to file your claim. These restrictions are referred to as statute of limitations. Generally, a victim of medical malpractice has three years in which to file suit; but this time period may be subject to exceptions. Negligence suits against a South Carolina state government agency and a federal government agency must generally be filed within two years unless a verified claim is filed. The laws and regulations governing medical malpractice are complex and generally require experienced attorneys to handle a victim’s claim. Elliott & Phelan, LLC has that experience. Call us today.
