GENERAL NEGLIGENCE – INJURY BY ANOTHER LAWYER IN COLUMBIA, SC
South Carolina law of negligence by another is a very old concept in the law and in most western societies. The basis of the legal tenet is that we are all responsible to others in society if our carelessness injures another. The most common types of negligence cases in today’s society are vehicle accidents, slip and falls, professional, including medical, negligence and the injuries that follow from that kind of carelessness. Those kinds of actions or omissions are often insured by liability insurance.
However, any injury that is caused by another’s negligence or even reckless behavior can be the basis of a suit if the careless party disputes the facts or if they simply will not make their error good by putting the injured party in the position he or she would have been in had the negligence not occurred.
